Broken Arrow Golf Club in Lockport, Illinois, operates as a 27-hole facility with three nine-hole loops that can be combined into various 18-hole configurations, including the South/East combination. Bob Lohmann, a regional architect active in the Midwest during the latter decades of the twentieth century, designed the course. The property sits in the southwestern suburbs of Chicago, where the terrain transitions from the flat prairie landscape typical of the region to areas shaped by glacial activity and the nearby Des Plaines River valley. The South and East nines at Broken Arrow reflect Lohmann's approach to working within the natural topography of suburban Chicago sites. Players encounter a mix of open and tree-lined holes, with water features and bunkers positioned to define playing corridors and challenge approach shots. The routing takes advantage of elevation changes where they exist, though the overall character remains consistent with the relatively gentle contours common to courses built on former agricultural land in this part of Illinois. Broken Arrow serves primarily as a daily-fee facility, drawing golfers from the surrounding communities and the broader Chicago metropolitan area. The course provides a straightforward test suitable for a range of skill levels, with multiple tee boxes allowing players to adjust the challenge to their game. The South/East combination offers variety in hole length and strategic demands, typical of multi-loop designs that aim to keep the experience fresh across different rounds.
