 Overpriced, Oct 23, 2007 |

from Arlington Heights, IL |
| Old Orchard is an over-priced course that sacrificed too much land to condos years ago. Despite a few good holes like the par-5 5th and the par-3 7th and 17th, the course requires too many irons off the tee. There are far better choices in the northwest suburbs. |

| Comfortable, but challenging golf course. The grounds are maintained very well. As nice a course you'll play at a reasonable price. |

Leave the Driver in the Bag, Apr 23, 2004 |
| reviewer: RT
from NW IL |
| Leave the driver in the bag is the best way to approach many of the holes on this short but difficult course. As you can see by the yardage it is not long, but take one look at the slope rating and you will see that you are in for a test (from the tips). Putting the ball in play off the tee will save you many strokes versus knocking it in the many, many trees which line the fairways. Number 1 is a perfect example, put the big dog away, and hit it down the middle with your 3 wood. No sense starting off with a big number. Number 3 is a test of your mid-irons. It goes over ponds to a narrow green. Long is definately not good as you will go over a mound (hill) guarding the back of the green. Your chip back will not be fun (Mickelson would have a challenge with that one). There are many good holes, but I believe the signature hole is the par 3 17th. They are in the process of re-doing the hole, but it is still great. From the tips you have to thread your tee shot through trees to a green guarded on three sides by water. Sound easy? Oh, did I mention that this par 3 is 230 yards long? Tough hole. The course is a little pricey, but check, they usually have early morning deals during the week and it's a bargin. |
