Earlywine Golf Club

The South Course at Earlywine Golf Club opened in 1971 as part of Oklahoma City's municipal golf complex, designed by Floyd Farley, an Oklahoma-based architect who shaped several courses across the state during the mid-20th century. The facility sits in the southern part of Oklahoma City and serves as an accessible public option for the metro area's golfers. Farley's design reflects the straightforward, playable approach common to municipal courses of that era, emphasizing functionality and maintainability for high-volume play. The routing works across gently rolling terrain typical of central Oklahoma, with modest elevation changes and mature tree-lined fairways that have developed character over the decades. The course features traditional parkland elements—tree corridors defining holes, strategically placed bunkers, and greens of moderate size and contour. Water comes into play on several holes, adding variety to the shot-making demands. The layout accommodates golfers of varying skill levels through multiple tee options, though it provides enough length and strategic interest to challenge better players. Earlywine operates as a busy municipal facility, drawing a diverse membership and daily-fee clientele from across Oklahoma City. The club maintains both the South Course and its companion North Course, offering golfers two distinct layouts within the same property. The setting provides a practical, tree-shaded escape within the city limits, and the courses have served generations of Oklahoma golfers learning and enjoying the game in a straightforward, unpretentious environment.
