Oakbrook Golf Club

Hadn't played here in quite some time and was shocked to see the logging operaton that had taken place. Visuals have been destroyed, still a ton of debris on the ground. Won't be back anytime soon....

I used to be a member here in the 80s.
Haven't been back in years.
Many many fir trees have been removed. Much nicer accent now of the numerous beautiful white oak trees.

The greens were especially fast and high quality. They were the fastest greens I have played this summer and that's about 25 rounds at various courses in 3 states.

Now I will be back. It was fun.

All aspects were good to excellent. Appears mgt is trying to upgrade in multiple ways. Greens are terrific if you like smooth and fast. Real value

Disappointed. I have played this course quite often in the past and it was always in awesome shape. the quality of this course has gone downhill since RMG took over the course. Bunkers are horrible many have golf ball sized rocks in them.

This is the second RGM course I've played this year. They have mowed down most of the trees which has left the course looking terrible. Ryan needs to win a few tournaments so he can put some money into his courses. The course is good for practice but not much else.

This was the first time playing the course and we played from the blue tees. The course plays narrow and long so expect it to be some real work and focus. I would recommend playing the course from the men's white tees your first time. I used a hybrid driving club to tee off with most of the day because of how narrow it plays. This left me with long approach shots (200+ yards on several holes) and a lot of boagies.

The fairways were very nice and it is evident that the management has removed a lot of trees to make the layout more accessible for average golfers. The greens were fast and had a lot of break, try to stay below the hole on all approach shots and save yourself a few three putts.

I think this is a hidden gem. If you tune your game with this course you will be a better golfer. GO PLAY IT!

The greens have finally come back to their summer condition. True and fast.
course was in nice condition.

Not bad if they clean up the tree bark all over the place.

I played the blue. It is rated on the card to be 72.4 & 139. GHIN has it at similar at 72.2 & 128. Greens were fast and mostly smooth. RMG is doing a lot of work to open the course up to more sunlight. This will have a huge impact in quality already present with the course. My only concern is the tee boxes. This may be due to the work currently being done but many were not level and sand fill was evident.
I will play it again. I will join the RMG group. They have excellent options for membership.

Course was in great condition and will be even better once all the tree removal trash is cleaned up. Greens are great!!!

This course is NOT in good condition right now. Several of the greens are pitted due to the grass not growing well on them. The rough is mostly dirt and wood chips currently due to a major tree removal project. The sand traps are rocky and do not have a good base of sand.

Although considerable brush from cutting trees is apparent, the fairways and most of the greens are in good condition. This is a good course, and the overall condition will improve after the cleanup is completed. We would recommend this course to anyone who has never had the pleasure of playing Oakbrook.

We were told by a staff member halfway through our round that 450 trees had been dropped in the past month. There were hundreds of brush and limb piles scattered throughout the course. We should have been advised prior to making the tee time that the course conditions were so poor. Very disappointed.

Worst course conditions I've ever played, no warning and payed full price.

Don't waste your time or your money at RMG Oakbrook. The logging operation is only one of the issues with the bad playing conditions. Greens at this time are shot all are heavily sanded with some playing as temps while others are covered with plastic except a small area with the flag position. Sand traps have rocky areas covered over with a very thin layer of sand and the rocks are large enough to ruin your clubs. Sad to see a great course in this condition. Hopefully the course will rebound but will take some time and alot of work.

I played Oakbrook last year and it was in phenomenal condition, but I went back and they have cut down hundreds of trees and the course should not be open. There is chopped up tree debris along every fairway and some greens. I have never experienced a course doing such a major tree removal operation while still remaining opened. Oakbrook does not mention the major tree removal operation when booking a tee time on golfnow. I will not play this course for a long time.

This was my first time playing the course so I'm trying to review the course as if there was no logging debris. The main reason I even golfed the course was because golfnow.com had a "hot buy" and I couldn't pass up the opportunity. They need to update the mats on the range with some reworking on the yardage posts, I had no idea how far any of the posts were. They had a great sign that said colors designating yardage but no colors out on the landing zones. If you play during the logging times be prepared to lose some golf balls. The edges are so full of tree limbs that if you're 10-15 yards of the fairway either side you'll most likely lose your ball. Looking forward to coming back AFTER the logging is finished BUT they have A LOT of work to do cleaning the course up.

Overall seems like a good course. I only played there because of the deal on this website I would not pay full price for this course. They have been removing trees and much of the fairways are tracked up by heavy machinery, much worse than sand traps when your in them.

This is a great golf track. It must have been premier 30 years ago as the homes surrounding it are aging but there is new construction going on too.

The problem currently is that the course was recently logged of several hundred trees. Its a real mess at present. Plus the greens were freshly punched.

I'll be back but not until they are finished with the renovations. Next, I hope they'll bring the club house into the 21st century next.

This is a fine golf course that is currently being logged. We were only able to play seven holes. Many hundreds of trees now cut down and the course will be a mess for a long time.
