About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 7034 yards
Slope 132
Rating 74.9

There are 27 holes of golf available at Broken Arrow Golf Club, which are broken down into the East, North, and South nines. They are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The East/North Course begins with the most challenging nine of the three. Sloped fairways, hidden water, and strategically placed bunkers make good course management essential. The back nine is considered the most scenic but it boasts another distinction. It is the only course with a dual-green concept in the Midwest, meaning that golfers have the choice of playing to either of the two flags on each hole. It was designed to give players control over the difficulty of the golf course. There are also 30 bunkers and mature trees that come into play on the back nine.

Some holes are quite challenging with focus on strategies.

Second time to play the course first time under five hours second time over five close to six. I am not one for target golf I like to give the ball a good ripe and hope for the best. But I enjoy both the length and the emphasis on some holes to make the right choice and lay up, in particular the par 5 eight hole on the South course.

Best value around

I believe Broken Arrow is one of the best values in the Chicago area. With 3 very different 9 hole courses, you get a different experience and challenge with each round. The course is well maintained and pace of play is great.

First Time Playing

27 holes with Willow Trees that mark hidden water hazards.

The course was in good shape and the ground crew was great about stopping their work for golfers to play through. The pro shop staff, the starter, the rangers, the cart girl, and the bartenders were all friendly and accomodating. This was my first trip to Broken Arrow but it certainly won't be may last. They have a reasonably priced annual package that I'm giving strong consideration to. If it was 20 minutes closer to my home the check would already be in the mail.

27 holes - Hidden Gem in the Chicago area - Great Value

I admit I am kind of a golf course snob. I really enjoy pristine conditions and will gladly pay for it.

Anyway, a friend of mine needed a last minute foursome and with a cost of $55 with cart on a Sunday I automatically assumed the course would be in bad shape.

I was pleasantly surprised! Challenging yet fair design with well maintained fairways and quick greens which I like. I played the North/East side and then ended up playing again in the afternoon South/North and they got us out with no problem.

Having 27 holes mixes things up and throw in multiple flag locations and it's one of a kind in the Chicago area.

Had a burger which was very good but thought the onion rings were outstanding! This course is really a hidden gem for the $$

Broken Arrow in 3 hrs

Monday afternoon at 1:30 and were finished in 3 hrs! greens are very difficult with lots of undulation and thick rough just off the putting surface. conditions overall were very good and well worth the $40 golfnow rate.

Good experience

Well designed course in good condition. Especially like the dual flag options on the North nine. If I had the time, would have replayed that nine on the different flagsticks.

Very challenging par 5's on North and South courses.

Played on Sunday, July 7th in under 4 hours. Course was full, but pace of play was outstanding. Great work by the rangers. Conditions were better than average..very nice greens. Price on GolfNow saved the foursome money, and we were able to find a course on a Sunday that wasn't loaded with permanent tee times.

Broken Arrow is in no way broken, this arrow flys high in my book.

Golf course was in great shape and had an awesome round and replay. Bar staff and manager were friendly and wings and pizza bread hit the spot afterward. Could have been a bit faster play but i think its expected on a holiday weekend.
