English Turn Golf & Country Club
About
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.

Golfer Reviews
Wonderful course
I played TPC Louisiana the day before and enjoyed English Turn more. The variety of strategic, penal, and heroic holes, and the balanced order in which they’re placed, make this course a joy to play. The conditioning is decent - nothing to boast about, but certainly good enough. But the star of the show is the design by Nicklaus. Very fun course that requires careful consideration to score well and extremely playable, for all levels of golfer. Highly recommended.
Outstanding Experience!
Cody (or Cory, can’t remember) pulled up to the car as soon as we pulled in and immediately got us loaded up. James (our starter) was amazing and full of helpful advice. Ebony took great care of us at the bar. Will definitely make a return trip to the Turn.
Great day!
Mike in the pro shop took great care of us, and Mr. James the starter went above and beyond in his course briefing, to include taking family photos that will stay with us for years to come. Thanks for making it a wonderful Saturday for us all!
Narrow, well managed greens
I got rained out in the morning but was able to get on in the afternoon. James gave me the tips to avoid the unseen hazards from the teebox on a first play through. It was quiet and peaceful with a nice open feel. Water in play on every hole but never too daunting. I really enjoyed playing here. I hope to be back to NOLA to play again.
Fun course
Fun course with great staff would reccommend to any one. Will play again when I visit NOLA. James the starter was especially great!
Great course to break up the drinking and eating while in NO
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.
