Looking like I may have to make a trip to Oklahoma City in the next couple of months. I can't say I know much of anything on the golf scene there and curious what folks here would recommend I check out if I have time to play a round or two?
It's a hour away, and the unaccompanied guest fee is a ridiculous $500, but Karsten Creek is a pretty amazing golf course. It's Fazio times two (or perhaps squared). They really don't want a lot of play. I was told it opened at $75, but got too much play, so they doubled it. And then doubled it again. The last time I was there it was "only" $325.
Lakeside, the Labron Harris course where the team used to play is $30 on weekends.
I've walked it a few dozen times as a volunteer at three NCAA Championships, and several Ping Karsten AJGA events, which earned a free round. The play window is pretty tight so I've only played it twice.
Everything about the place is huge, except the clubhouse. Long (7400 yards), huge tees, huge greens, pretty wide in places, but absolutely dead if you miss a fair by much.
