Chariot Run is one of Indiana’s most underrated public courses. Wide fairways tempt you to swing freely, but the thick rough and slick bentgrass greens demand precision.

Bunkers guarding almost every green, and not a ton of trees in play. Holes 2-4-9 are solid on the front, but I definitely prefer the back nine. 11-14-17-18 are my favorite holes. The view from 18 tee is insane. Great range and putting green, bonus points for a dedicated short game area!

It’s always in great shape. The practice facility offer a short game area with shots from fairway, rough and sand. The rough is thick and dense a real challenge. The staff is friendly and helpful and has a restaurant and bar. Cart girls are there on weekends.

Links-style course with very limited tree trouble. The elevation changes are a lot of fun, and paired with the lack of trees, blind shots can really be a challenge to gauge. Love holes 2-6-9-18. Range is subpar and no real clubhouse environment.

Super tight and hilly. Typical metro conditions. Best hole is the par 3 over the creek.

Not a fan of the front side. Back is a lot more fun and you get the added bonus of watching planes take off at Bowman Field. Fairways were average, but greens were pretty long. All temporary tee boxes which is an auto L.

Lots of history, but overall a pretty bland course in my opinion. Everything is dead straight and conditions were rough due to recent flooding.

Conditions were terrible in Summer 2024. Really liked the layout, but pace and conditions were rough.
