About

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.

Lots of good things but...

Pace of play was dreadfully slow.

Course in good condition, green would hold shots, but were fast, no complaints.

Big sign in the clubhouse "THE BAR IS OPEN!" Went into the bar to find a sign saying, THE BAR IS CLOSED."

It's a once or twice a year course.

4:15 for 13 holes

Awful pace. 1st 3 holes on south were under 35 minutes. Got to par 4 and sat at every hole after that. Terrible pace. Either too booked or not enough administering of pace of play.

Very Nice Course

Played here in a foursome on an autumn Friday morning. Course was well attended but not packed. Course was in very good shape, including the greens -- which had either not been punched yet, or have already recovered from being punched. Nice wide fairways most of the times for the more casual golfer, but a good bit of water and woods OB to make it a challenge too. I lost more golf balls than usual this round, but that's not the courses' fault. The pro shop is small and only has essentials. And the snack counter (?) only has hot dogs, bags of chips, candy, and some cold drinks (beer/pop/water/sports drinks) in a refrigerator. Would have liked a bigger food offering, but oh well. I'd play here again.

This course has challenging holes

Enjoyed the course except for the bunkers which were essentially unplayable. Rest of the course was in nice shape and the greens rolled nicely.

Good course with interesting holes. Friendly staff

The cart paths on the North Course need repairs. Otherwise great value for the money. Electric carts are nice and quiet.

Good condition

Course is in nice condition & greens in good condition too except the Covid newbie’s who still don’t know what a divot tool is. Like most courses the lack of sand & bunker maintenance is disappointing.
