Type Public
Par 71
Length 6391 yards
Slope 127
Rating 70.3

The 27-hole course at Schaumburg Golf Club is divided into three nines that are played in different 18-hole combinations that range from just over 6,000 yards to 6,700 yards. The Tournament, Baer, and Players Courses all provide a unique set of challenges but they share the same great conditions on their tees, greens, and fairways. Schaumburg has been host to numerous events since opening in 1928, including the U.S. Open Qualifying and Illinois Open Qualifying tournaments. It is a popular course since the club offers country club amenities and quality with the affordability of a public golf course. Schaumburg's Players/Baer combination starts out with a few tricky carries over water on the front nine and a more forgiving back nine. There are strategically placed bunkers throughout the course, however.

Employees having a bad day maybe?

I've been golfing for awhile now, and have never had such a bad experience with the staff from this course. First off they timed us on some holes and said we were taking too long with the hole. In reality they didn't see us have to wait for the others to go before we could go. They said they we could just hit a few balls and then head to the green. They said we looked like we were new to golf and that we were holding people up. In reality they overbooked the the course and were going about it all the wrong way. I've never been to a course were they were "nice" jerks to the customers. We booked the twilight rate for 18 holes on a Sunday evening and stopped us at the 15th hole because they needed the carts in by 8:30 pm. There were still light out and we could have easily finished the last three holes before dark, but they wouldn't let us. I will NEVER be back to this location, which sucks because I got the SPD card which gives you a discount at the Schaumburg Golf club. Such a waste of time.

Best that I have seen the greens in a long time.

Slow day, not many players on course which was nice. Not the most exciting course, but plenty of elevated greens with nice complexes. Pretty wide open for beginners , yet challenging for good players. Three 9's to accommodate play all with different variety.
