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.

Good track

Getting here and checking in were as smooth as always. Very friendly staff. It got a bit shaky after that. Cancellations caused the starter to mix and match to get foursomes. Ok. I ended up being odd man out. Went to the north course by myself. I'm ok with golfing alone, makes for a fast round. First hole there is someone on the green sweeping fresh dressing of sand. He won't stop for me to play up. Ok. Second hole, my ball is on the green and the same guy spreads sand on my ball. Really? Third hole the sprinklers come on. After that beginning it was quite smooth and I finished my round in 2:40. I've been here many times, so I will give this a pass for being a holiday. Not the norm here.

one of my favorite courses to play

Great lay out. Interesting holes. Course in great condition. Staff is friendly. Having 3 nine hole courses keeps people from running into each other even on a very busy memorial day. I would love to play this course on a regular basis but only get to make it out a couple times a year here. Played with 2 others who played this course for the first time and each of them loved it as well.

They closed because it was slow

A friend and myself booked a tee time there yesterday. Because it was slow they closed up before our tee time, but noone called to let us know. I live 2 minutes from the course but the friend who was joining me lives about 45 minutes away. When I got there and talked to the chef because noone else was there. My friend was already 5 minutes away. That is a bad way to do business. I have probably played there 30 times the last 2 years and that will be the last.

Rated just right

Before booking my tee time for Broken Arrow, I looked up the course and the reviews golfers had given it. It was right on the money. Well maintained, challenging but not grueling, fast pace of play and an overall enjoyable experience. I definitely recommend this excellent course to golfers of every level.

Surprised

Play Broken Arrow once every couple years. It's about an hour drive for me. Today I brought 2 golfers that never played it. We were all surprised how nice the course was for the price we paid. Fairways and greens were in great shape. Rough was definitely rough. Long and thick. Had a great time.

2 out of 3 Ain't Bad

We played two out of the three 9 hole courses yesterday and were treated to a great day of golf. The greens were perfect and challenging. The holes were well thought out and designed. The fairways were nearly pristine, a fact that is astounding in late August. The rough was rough, the way it should be. Hit your shots straight and you are fine. The "East" course has dual greens. We chose the "Blue" pins and were met with challenges we appreciated.
I am certain had we played all three of the nine hole courses the results would have been as good and the title of this review would have been "3 Great Courses in One Location" .

Course is in great shape

Course is challenging but fair. Greens were in great shape and the rough was tough. It made you pay if you weren't in the short stuff. The starter moved us up since some people ahead of us had cancelled. Pace was just over 4 hours.

Short notice

Played the North and East Courses. Not a big fan of the multiple flags on the North Course, the course was in great shape though. The rough is s little high so keep the shots straight and you will be ok. The east course was a little chewed up in spots, but I like the layout. I will be back.

The narrower fairways provided challange

The course was beautifully groomed and definitely a challenge. The rough was thick and successfully designed to encourage straight shots. Enough par 4's and 5's to keep me on my toes. Definitely intend to play the course again to meet the total challenge by playing 18.

Never Disapoints

Always a pleasure to play BA...
The only critique I have were the greens. They were in decent shape just need to be rolled. A little fuzzy in some places. the bunkers continue to need some TLC, but playable. I love the long rough. If you spray the ball your penalized.
I will continue to make the drive from the city.
Value is outstanding... Go play Broken Arrow you won't be disappointed.

Unusual layout; nice condition

We played the North/South combination of this 3- nines tract, and I have to say the North course is a bit weird. Each green is enormous - in fact, there are two pins on each green - a red and blue. The red pin is always shorter and more accessible and thus plays better to the higher handicap golfer. Getting an accurate distance is a bit tricky, though. Fairway distance markers have both red and blue yardage, but the score card does not show the hole length to red. Not quite sure what my nRange GPS app was giving us. So all-in-all, the two pin novelty, to me, was a bit disconcerting. In fact, in one case where I pulled the approach shot a bit, my ball was actually on the green nearer the blue pin, but and I was separated from our red pin by some rough. There are a couple of scenic holes on the North course, though, especially the long par 5 (#4). Anyway, perhaps you just have to get used to it. Everything else was great - fairways and greens in nice shape, roughs were cut to a moderate length. Made good time on the front 9, but then bogged down on the back - resulting in a typical 4+ hour round. Overall, I like this course (although prefer the East/South combo) and with a GolfNow hot deal it's a great bargain. Would be nice if they let carts out in the parking lot for loading and unloading, though.
