About

Holes 9
Type Semi-Private
Par 36
Length 3515 yards
Slope N/A
Rating N/A

Located just an hour south of Chicago, White Hawk Country Club is northwest Indiana’s premiere golf destination. It’s ranked as one of the top 10 toughest golf courses in Indiana. The 36-hole golf course consists of four nines called Red Hawk, Grey Hawk, Black Hawk, and Silver Hawk, which are rotated daily to give players a unique round every day. The Red Hawk nine measures 3,515 yards from the back tees. It’s not the longest nine but there are still some holes that long hitters will enjoy. Strategically placed bunkers and water hazards also come into play. The golf course will reward thoughtful strategy but it’s not overly punishing for the high handicapper. In addition to the 36 holes, White Hawk C.C. also offers one of the area’s most extensive practice facilities, which includes a driving range with tightly bunkered target greens and a short game area with a sand bunker.

72° = 5 hours 15 minutes

I know it was a nice day here in November, but a course with this many holes and options should not have taken over 5 hours on a Thursday. Not a ranger in site for the entire round. When you stack 2 and 2 and 4 and 2 and 4 and 2 on top of each other that's what happens. Here's an idea make some foursomes with all the two. Well I can say I played it once, that's enough for me... not heading back anytime soon.

Avoid the silver hawk, it’s a gimmick 9. This review is only for silver hawk.

The other 3 9’s at white hawk are beautiful. Avoid playing the silver hawk. It’s an absolute waste of time. The layout is just silly. You’ll be disappointed with how dumb the setup is. If your not a single digit handicap you’ll be frustrated with this 9.
