I’m a big fan of 9 hole courses, as playing all of the holes is much easier to pull off with a busy schedule than a full 18 hole round, but also because the shorter distances make for an easier round if you want to forgo the cart. And finally there is the issue of cost, with many 9 hole courses being a bargain.
So, here’s my list of all of the 9 hole or less golf courses I’ve played in Oklahoma, with my rankings on a 25 point scale (here’s an explanation of how the JMBGolf.com ratings system works)
