I Recommend This Course
Best 9-hole value in Chicago
Ball strikers course. 3,400 yards from the back, 3,200 from the white tees. Course is in great shape. You won't find many hazards, but left/right will cost you. Smallish greens but well kept. Pace of play is generally pretty reasonable. In the end, if you play public forest preserve golf on the weekend, you can't expect 2:15. But you can during the week and that's pretty standard here. Staff are excellent. If I had one beef it would simply be that management (Troon) doesn't provide enough riding carts for a course this long. It's truly short-sighted on their part.

Nasty Starter
The starter (Carlos) was extremely agressive towards one of the golfers in the foursome. He threatened to throw the guy off the course and took huge offense towards a suggesstion about when to tee off. Waaaaay overboard...and embarassing for what is supposed to be a gentlemen's game. Michel and Scottie are always fine but the new guy could use some training.
