St. Andrews Golf & Country Club - Joe Jemsek Course
Played On 10/22/2015Tougher than it appears!
I've played this course a number of times and really enjoy the challenge. The set up is somewhat challenging with certain holes playing longer than you think. Even the short par 4's have their risk / reward dangers. Overall, I enjoy playing here and will continue to come back.
Prairie Bluff Public Golf Club
Played On 10/14/2015Nice Course, but........
I have played here a number of times and really enjoy the course. Challenging holes and fairly long from the blue tees. The only gripe I have would be the on course rangers. They need to get a clue, we can only go as fast as the group ahead of us!!! Our last round reflected such ignorance. A ranger came up to us on the 14 hole and said to pick it up a bit due to things backing up behind us. Funny, we were on top of the group in front of us..hum???? The group behind us was a two-some...I guess they felt we were playing slow....funny two-some versus four-some...GENIUS!!!
White Deer Run Golf Course
Played On 10/11/2015Beautiful course!
White Deer Runs is beautiful! Challenging layout, but very fair. First time I ever played there and definitely will be back!! I was a little concerned with the houses located throughout the course, but they're set back so there are no issues...VERY NICE!
The Trophy Club
Played On 10/03/2015Great Course!
I have played this course twice. Love the layout and very challenging. We come down from Chicago for the Colts games and try to to play this course. At some point we'll be able to play this course in decent weathet(rained both times). We'll be back!!!!!
WinStar Golf Course - RedBud
Played On 05/02/2015Fairways and Sandtraps
Poor sand and too much sand in some traps. Balls that would roll into traps should work their way down...NOT HERE! Fairways in poor shape, maybe it's the time of the year? I'm from the Chicago area and our fairways are awesome!
Oak Brook Golf Club
Played On 04/29/2015Toughest Greens in the Chicago Area
Nice Course and good location-convenient! Front nine is tight and not very long. Back nine a bit more open with a little more length. Course conditions were fair, probably due to the time of season. Greens are very tough...no flat greens here!!! Overall, challenging and fun!
Ravisloe Country Club
Played On 09/14/2014Beautiful Course
First time playing here and it won't be the last! The condition of the course was excellent. Narrow fairways and small greens reflect the overall design of this course. Ravisloe was once a country club and I'm very happy it went public.
Big Run Golf Club
Played On 08/14/2014Hidden Gem
Big Run is a hidden gem! Very challenging and it will test your golfing abilities. All this place needs to do is update their clubhouse and utilize their views. This would provide an awesome place to play and dine(after the round).
South/East at Arrowhead Golf Club
Played On 07/27/2014Nice Course
I have played here before and that is why I come back. Nice course and very well maintained. Today's round was very challenging due to the high winds!! The course is very challenging, add the windy conditions and you have an extremely difficult course! But I'll be back!!!
The only negative I have reflects the GPS on the carts. They seem to be "faulty". And I have experienced that in the past...HUM!!!
Orchard Valley Golf Course
Played On 10/27/2013Very Challenging!
Very challenging course! Always seems to be windy at Orchard Valley which plays into the difficulty. Water plays a big role in many of the holes and the holes that didn't have water, we'll LENGTH! Orchard Valley in my opinion has one of the toughest par fours in the Chicago area. Hole number 9 is a long par 4 which usually plays into the wind...TOUGH!! Greens are fast and true!! Love it!!
Old Oak Country Club
Played On 7/5/2013Needs help!
This course has a very challenging layout, but the conditions were poor. The main complaint I have reflects the conditions of the greens!!! With all the rain we have had I can't believe the conditions of the greens! We're they not aerated? Any water? THE GREENS WERE PAINTED GREEN!! It was so obvious, just ask my shoes!!! I will no longer come out and play this course! Too bad the course itself has a nice layout and tight tree lined fairways.
Prairie Landing
Played On 5/1/2013Nice Course
I've played here for years and have always enjoyed the course. Challenging, but fair.
One thing I did notice was the condition of the course. Sand traps were in poor condition(Short on Sand and not groomed). Other areas of the course seemed to be "let go"....weeds.
One suggestion, cut back on the "high grass areas". I know it's a link style course but, better groomed areas would increase overall course speed.
Lombard Golf Course
Played On 11/30/2012Nice Nine!
More challenging then people would think. Play from the tips and you'll be challenged!
Schaumburg Golf Club - Tournament/Baer Course
Played On 11/18/2012Nice golf course, challenging.
Nice course, would like to it play in the summer. Can't complain about golfing in November!
Bowes Creek Country Club
Played On 9/30/2012Great Course!
I've played here before and really enjoyed it. Very challenging, but very fair! Would definitely recommend this course to any golfer!!!
George W Dunne National Golf Course
Played On 8/19/2012Nice course!
I've played this course numerous times and I would say it's one of my favorites. Very challenging and the layout plays well. The only issues I have had are sometimes you get stuck playing a round of golf with jerks! What I mean by that, sometimes you have golfers behind you that think you going to slow, but you can only go as fast as the group ahead of you. FIGURE IT OUT PEOPLE!!!
Blackstone Golf Club
Played On 8/2/2012Nice Course! Challenging but, fair.
For the most part course was very fair. The overall layout and conditions were very good. The only complaint I would have is that some of the pin placements were on crests. Not even the PGA would put up with those locations!
