Rating 74.8

Located just 40 miles southwest of Chicago's Loop, Broken Arrow Golf Club is one of the most popular golfing facilities in the area. The club offers 27 holes of championship golf, divided into three unique nines that offer different challenges and scenery. The golf courses: East, North, and South, are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The North/South is the most scenic of the courses. The North is especially beautiful, but it also has another distinction. It is the only course in the Midwest with a dual-green concept. The design allows golfers to control the difficulty of the course by offering the option to play to either of the two flags on each hole. The club's former use as a farm is evident on the South nine where the original farmhouse and silo can be seen from the first tee box.

Great round

Course is in excellent shape I like that they have a driving range and practice green for putting practice, staff is friendly and accommodating. Ranger had play moving along nicely . No backups not even at the par 3’s and green fees for seniors very very reasonable. Will definitely play there again now that I’m retired and have more time on my hands . I will look into seeing if they have a Pro for lessons when I go back. Overall great experience .

Quick Round!

It was super hot so there weren't many golfers on the course. I blew through 18 holes in 2.5 hours!

The greens were in great condition, but very very slow. It took me 9 holes to adjust.

This is a challenging course and I will play it again soon!

Terrible

Nothing Good to say

Pace of play- Slow

Cart Girl- Didnt want to be bothered as she was always on her phone

Bunkers- Couldnt hit out of them and there was No sand and everyone had water in them

Ranger- straight out rude/jerk

We got stuck behind a groip of 6, Yes 6

Called it in and Ranger came out, my buddy made a comment about allowing us to play thru and Ranger went off on him and started dropping F bombs at him and even threatened to kick him off course.

$80 course so not worth it

You have so many other, better courses in area for same price.

Undecided if I go back on not.

Great Course, but

I understand we have had some pretty severe storms the past couple of weeks but the sand traps need lots of work. At a minimum the standing water needs to be pumped out. You should not lose a ball in the trap because it’s a pond.

Great value

Course was in very good shape for early in the season. Excellent value, especially for seniors ($42); pro shop staff friendly and accommodating. Course has water on multiple holes, so challenging, but not overly difficult. We played South/East in under 4 hours b

Water!!!

Course was in very good shape for the beginning of the season. Greens were immaculate and very receptive. Course forces you to drive the ball in the fairway and hit accurate approach shots due to a lot of creeks and small lakes placed around or in front of the greens. Well worth the cost paid. The staff was friendly. Will definitely play here again!!!!

A somewhat challenging lay-out. Greens were well-maintained and fast, in spite of the rainy spell we had recently. Hole 9 on the East course is tough finishing hole.
