English Turn Golf & Country Club is a Jack Nicklaus design that was crafted in 1988 to host the New Orleans PGA Tour event. Nicklaus designed the course to be enjoyed equally by spectators and golfers, incorporating gallery berms and spectator mounds throughout. This challenging design is known for its undulating greens that will test even the most seasoned players. Each hole has a unique design that combines strategically placed bunkers, including large waste bunkers, and sloping grass swales. There is also carefully sculpted mounding along the edges of the fairways. On top of that, water comes into play on nearly every hole. English Turn's signature hole, the 15th, is a tricky par 5 with an island green but it's the final hole, a par 4 with water all along the left side, that is rumored to be the golf course's toughest.

That’s what I’m talking about…

Great layout, challenging but not unfair. Lots of water that comes into play. A few greens in rough shape around the edges but otherwise in great conditions. Rolled a little slow but true. Excellent service and pace of play was perfect. Never waited on a single hole and we’re never crowded from behind despite a full tee sheet. James is a great ambassador for the course and made sure we knew we were playing someplace special.

Love this course and will come back again.

Top 3

This course is consistently a top 3 courses you can play in the New Orleans area. From the well supplied proshop, to the ample practice facility, to the incredible food in the grill, Jack’s course is a gem. (Nicklaus design)

James is a really good starter. He always has a good energy and is kind. For first timers he always explains the course and important things about it which is really nice and helpful.

Awesome

I’ve played every course around the New Orleans area and English turn became my favorite today. We had James as the starter today, that guy is great. Challenging greens, challenging fairways. Highly recommend playing here. I know I’ll be back.

Course is in horrible condition

English Turn was PGA tour venue. That is history now. Course has lost its charm. Never played worse greens and they allow the members to play in 5-somes in front of twosomes. The greens are tiny, do not hold iron shots and most of them should be replaced they are so bad. Sad, because this course used to be a great golf course.

English Turn is back to how it was !

Greeted with a cart right when I got out the car. The starter James was great explaining on the course and green speeds. Course was busy but we finished under 4 hours. Greens are in great condition (still small though lol). Glad to see the course getting back to what it used to be.

Awesome Course!

This was our first time playing English Turn and we weren't disappointed. This course has it all - gorgeous but challenging fairways, large but extremely tough greens and enough water to suck up a ton of balls. We played a day before a Tulane golf tournament, so everything was perfect. We would definitely recommend this course!

This is a course to play in New Orleans

The course was in great shape. It had rained all night, so it was cart path only, but the course held up and was very playable. Temperature was 49 with a mist and 15mph wind, so it was a very sporty day, we still enjoyed ourselves. James, the starter was great, very helpful with info, being our 1st time there. Greens were in great shape, smooth, running quick. Definitely a course to play in New Orleans.

Really nice Course

Really nice course. Very challenging for an average golfer such as myself. Water and sand come into play on most every hole. Straight drives are definitely rewarded. Overall, had a great time and will be back soon.

Seems like they recently replaced the greens. Very fast and firm. Greens were previously my biggest complaint about this course but I very much enjoyed them this time around!
