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.

Aerifying in process

Played the last 7 holes with aerified tee boxes that weren't cleared off with zero warning that this would be the case. Usually golf now has a warning that let's customers know that this has either happened or will be happening when they get to the course.

I actually did not miss any warning that this was going to be happening. GolfNow did not have a warning for this course as it did for others and that is why I selected to play here. When I called the pro shop from the course I was told "Oh really? They are not supposed to be doing that today"

Good Parkland Course with moderate difficulty

The course will be much better if the divots were fixed. Water hazards are eyesores to say the least.

Nice course slow play

Broken arrow is a fun course in good shape with many challenges forced carry water ect. The greens are nice good speed and true. The only issue is most people play form in correct set of tees. The white tees are 6,300 yards to long for most occasional golfers the Blue tees are 6,600 yards where most play so they end up with three or fours shots on Par 4’s which slows pace. If you can’t drive 260 don’t try
The blue tees you will get crushed and slow pace down. I only play here in off peak times due to the slow play. Weekends are a 5+ hour round

First Time Playing

So I booked a tee time for myself in 4-14-2024
For 2:20pm . I get there check in pay and head over two the north course as I pull up they had a threesome about tee again I was alone so instead of pairing me up with the threesome. Thomas the starter went under the tree and called the pro shop complaining about why they booked me alone. So he sends me to the east course and says I should be good to go that wasn't the case. Their was two foursomes just hanging out . I drove 40 minutes to this course which I live by several courses but wanted to give this course a shot.

So between the guy running the pro shop and the starter they ruined my day.
I work 6 days a week and just wanted to golf.
Maybe thomas can take another math class so he knows 3+1=4.

I don't understand why I could play with the threesome.

Fall Golf

The conditions and pace of play at this course was great. The only downside is lack of restroom facilities on the course. Otherwise, the course was well maintained and looked great for fall!
