Mohawk Park Golf Club

Pecan Valley at Mohawk Park Golf Club is a Perry Maxwell design located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, part of the city's extensive Mohawk Park complex in the northeastern section of town. Maxwell, one of the Golden Age's most respected architects with deep Oklahoma roots, routed this course through gently rolling terrain characteristic of the region, incorporating native pecan trees and mature hardwoods that give the layout its name and define many of its playing corridors. The course reflects Maxwell's trademark strategic design principles, presenting golfers with options off the tee and around the greens rather than relying solely on length for difficulty. His greens typically feature subtle contours and false fronts that reward proper approach angles, and Pecan Valley follows this template. The property's natural elevation changes, though modest, provide enough movement to create interesting stances and shot variety throughout the round. Mohawk Park Golf Club operates as a municipal facility, making Maxwell's design accessible to a broad range of Tulsa-area golfers. The complex includes multiple courses and serves as a significant public golf resource for the city. Pecan Valley's tree-lined fairways and traditional parkland character offer a contrast to some of the more open prairie-style courses found elsewhere in Oklahoma, and the layout remains a solid example of Maxwell's work in his home state, where his portfolio includes several notable designs that helped shape the region's golf landscape during the early-to-mid twentieth century.
