White Hawk Country Club - Gray Hawk Nine
About
Located just an hour south of downtown Chicago, White Hawk Country Club offers 36 holes of championship golf. The holes are divided into four nines called Red Hawk, Grey Hawk, Black Hawk, and Silver Hawk. The Grey Hawk nine was one of the first nines built back when it was just an 18-hole golf course. It's the second longest of all the nines at 3,535 yards from the back tees, but it's still much shorter than the 3,846-yard Silver Hawk Course, which is White Hawk's toughest layout. Grey Hawk has a traditional links-style layout with strategically placed bunkers and water hazards coming into play throughout. In addition to the four golf courses, White Hawk also has a practice facility with a driving range that has target greens and a short game area with a bunker.

The best
I’ve golfed White Hawk many times, the best. Unfortunately I was not able to get there. My daughter had a baby that day and my wife had to be in the delivery room so I had to watch my granddaughter. Definitely worth it!!! Had a boy and he will soon be teeing off.Maybe in a couple of years.
Geofence on carts doesn’t work properly
Played on a Monday afternoon. Pace of play was ok (except for a threesome of teenagers that took four holes before finally letting us play through). The carts have a geo fence that shuts down if you get too close to a tee or green. No problem, except that our cart constantly was beeping and shutting down, even when we were in the middle of the cart path. I called the pro shop on the 4th hole. They said that they’d keep an eye on it and bring out a new cart. Never happened. Played 18 holes with a cart that beeped the entire time. Obviously, not too happy at whatever price.
Company Outing
From the drive up club service to the 36 holes this was a great company golf outing! Looking forward to the 2025 outing!
Got to play this course
Best course to play in Northwest Indiana. There are four nine hole couses each with their own identity. This is a must play to try all four.
GREAT HIDDEN GEM
The Black course is my favorite to play. silver not so much.
WhiteHawk
It was a bit wet . 1st hole in silver green was under water and the carts babysit you near tee and greens but guess that’s the new golf technology everyone is using . You have 10 seconds to get back on cart path …..
Don’t Play Silver
They have 4 nines (newest one is Silver). The lady at check in told us we were playing Grey/Silver. And that is what you get for booking on line. When we got to 1st tee the Marshall came up and was friendly. He said we would like the Grey 9. It was his 2nd favorite but nobody likes or plays the silver 9. He was right, we like the Grey 9, but the Silver was so hard it ruined the whole round. You are in the middle of a marsh with nothing around and you are constantly hitting long shots to carry all the reeds. You would need to be a consistently good player to enjoy this 9, and I am just a casual player.
They know how bad it is, they should give players a choice when booking.
The course won today
I played the black and the silver course both were tough on me . I shoot around 95 to 105 on average neither one of those happened today..I will be back to get my revenge
