Robert A. Black Golf Club

Robert Black is the best 9 hole track in the city. Easy to get to and very seldom hard to get a tee time at. The staff is super friendly and the course is in great condition. Perfect for a mid-week round, it may not be long but the track provides plenty of opportunity to hone in your game.

For a (usually) quick 9 holes go play Black. Three are challenging holes throughout the course. Sometimes play is slow on the weekends but that’s the way it is on a lot of mini courses!

Last time I played here was in the mid 90s. And old school Chicago “muni”, welcome mat tees, no sand in the bunkers and literal trash in the rough. No real difference between the fairway and the collar/rough/collar.

This was a great experience and the course was a lot of fun.

For the price, there’s no better track within 30 miles. I had no expectations but for $14… the track was pristine. Challenging course but forgiving and unique.
