Broken Arrow Golf Club - South/East
About
Broken Arrow Golf Club, located just southwest of Chicago's Loop, offers 27 holes of championship golf. There are three nines: East, North, and South that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The South/East Course begins with a links-style nine. The front of the course is accented by the landmarks of its former use as a farm. The original farmhouse and silo can be seen from the first teebox. Throughout the front nine, golfers will be faced with 22 bunkers, seven ponds, and multi-tiered greens. The golf course doesn't get any easier on East nine, which is arguably the most difficult of the three. The back nine features a slew of sloped fairways, hidden water hazards, and strategically placed bunkers. Course management is essential throughout the entire golf course.

Nice course
Nice course especially for the price. You definitely get more than what you pay for compared to other courses now a days that expect an arm and a leg for a goat ranch.
Staff
Staff was completely unprofessional and extremely rude to multiple customers. Course conditions were the worst I’ve seen ever. I will not be coming back.
Garbage everywhere
Every garbage can overflowing, every tee box was what seemed like a week old, divots everywhere. All bunkers were out of commission.
Broken Arrow…a hidden gem
Course is well kept with a variety of joke layout. It provides a very appealing rate for both seniors and non-seniors. This course does not appear to get the amount of golfers that it should. As such, the pace of play was very good. It seems early afternoon the course seems wide open.
Not well kept
Very playable but Water in bunkers. Slow greens fine but not worth the money
Nice course
Course was in decent shape - sand traps were bad, probably due to recent heavy rains.
Price difference
Price advertised was not the price paid at course 20 dollar difference
Getting better, still a long way from its previous reputation
Course was in pretty decent shape with the exception of a couple greens. Smoke from the Canada wildfires made it a little less appealing but obviously they have no control over that. Hopefully their construction ends soon and we can see the finished product. It seems like it’s taking an unnecessary amount of time to complete.
Never once saw a beverage cart or a ranger which is concerning but that may have been due to the wildlife smoke. Only mention that because the twosome in front of us (3) had a severe absence of course etiquette and time awareness. Would have been nice to see someone stop by to get them moving a little faster. We did see the beverage cart pulled out in front of the clubhouse but never saw it on the course. Unfortunate. It would have been a nice afternoon to enjoy a couple wobbly pops.
Really Nice, a couple things needed
Beautiful day for golf, wish I stayed out of the sand more, but a great time. Assigned to the North and South courses. A couple of issues:
1) All 3 courses need to build a set of true “senior tees” that play 2700-2800 yds. Red tees too short and whites too long for the average senior golfer.
2) North course greens are extraordinarily huge (Originally designed to contain two pins to create an 18-hole facsimile course out of a 9-hole layout). The green layouts are distracting and also difficult to get a valid GPS distance reading. Quite honestly, these greens need to be downsized and repurposed as 1-pin greens. (The original wacky intent was abandoned shortly after the course opened.)
Otherwise the course is in great shape. Sand traps a bit “crusty” in spots. Greens recovered beautifully from last year’s fertilizer burnout incident. Nice overall course layout. Clubhouse/ pro shop rehab complete and now open. Recommended.
