Battle Creek Golf Club



About this course
Battle Creek Golf Club, carved into the rolling Oklahoma terrain of Broken Arrow, is a course defined by its accessibility, its character drawn more from the spirit of the game than any pretense of championship pedigree. A product of the late 20th century, the course favors playability, rewarding bold approaches and forgiving slight miscalculations. While no major professional tournaments have graced its fairways, the course has hosted several amateur and regional events that have added to its lore. The terrain is classic parkland, with tree-lined fairways and strategically placed water hazards coming into play on several holes. The layout is forgiving from tee to green, but the undulating putting surfaces of bentgrass demand a deft touch to card low scores. Designed by Randy Heckenkemper, Battle Creek's challenge lies not in brute length, but in strategic shot placement and the ability to navigate the subtle breaks of its greens. The course is a beloved fixture of the Broken Arrow community and a hub for friendly games and local tournaments.

Getting there
Battle Creek Golf Club is most readily accessed via Tulsa International Airport (TUL), situated approximately 25 miles northeast of the club in Broken Arrow, a drive of roughly 35-40 minutes through the rolling terrain of northeastern Oklahoma. For those arriving by private aviation, Tulsa's robust general aviation infrastructure, including facilities at nearby Riverside Airport, provides seamless alternatives to commercial terminals. The route south from Tulsa gradually transitions from urban sprawl into the quieter, tree-lined neighborhoods of Broken Arrow, where the landscape softens into the gentle creek valleys and wooded uplands that define this corner of Oklahoma - a fitting prelude to the refined seclusion that awaits at Battle Creek Golf Club.
