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.

First Time Playing

Loved the course, was very challenging. Greens, fairways, bunkers were in very good condition considering all the rain recently. Pace of play was extremely slow. Too many people hitting multiple balls while others are waiting

TERRIBLE SAND TRAPS

I have played this course for 30 years.

Every sand trap was a mud hole with standing water. There was no rain recently .

after 9 holes I stopped in the clubhouse and I asked the 3 people behind the counter, why the traps were not taken care of. One man said you should not be in the traps anyway ... as he laughed. Then another said it was in the budget for new sand , but did not know when that would happen. What a shame for such a nice course .

Fun Track - Entertaining Layout

For the money this is one of the best values in the area. The layout is diverse offering different experiences between the holes. This was a nice departure from the down and back setup offered by a lot of area courses. Only negative is bring a range finder. No GPS and there were only 200/150/100 markers. We forgot ours and we were guessing on par 3s because they had zero yardage markings.
