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.

Broken Arrow - Ehhh

I love that Broken Arrow has 3 9 holes, but the East course is closed. They had a problem, I get it,,.. but some situations are unacceptable. No water on the course!! What!! There’s seniors on the course in 90 degree heat, and they have to wait til they complete 9 holes before they get to a mini fridge that serves overpriced drinks - Unacceptable! I”m a fit 52 year old, and Quickly drank a half gallon at competition because you can’t get anything on the course. Carillon is a similar course - water everywhere

They need to pay they’re landscapers more, the course is going downhill from years ago. There are signs “Help wanted”, and you can tell they are struggling to keep it in shape. They’re making money, start paying these hard working guys and you’d also get those positions filled. It’s a fragment of what it used to be,..

Absolute garbage. Half the greens looked like vintage shag rugs that had been kept in a basement for 80 years. Pace of play was thrown out the window. We quit on hole 14 after being out there for over 4 hours. I would have rather sewn my face to a carpet. Save your money and time.

No clubhouse and East course is unplayable

Got there only to learn that the clubhouse was closed and had to go to the shack by the driving range. Ticket said play north and south courses. Starter sent us out on East course. Started fine but third hole green was destroyed. 5 out of 9 greens were unplayable. Complained at the turn and was told that’s why it was a hot deal for $10 off. Really!?!? Unexplainable. Paid $120 for 2 people. Couldn’t even get a hot dog at the turn. Back nine, north course, was better…only 2 greens were unplayable. Pace slowed to a stand still. 4some in front of us slowed and wouldn’t let us play through. Nobody in front of them for 2-3 holes. Unreal! No ranger anywhere on the course.

Don’t charge me full price with greens that were absolutely destroyed. At least warn me the greens were destroyed before I play.
