Hit the clubs and perfect your swing at a public golf course near you
Raise your hand if you have post-Masters fever! With so many hands up in the sky, now would be the best opportunity to release that adrenaline inside of you and star on your own stage at an Oklahoma City golf course.
Oklahoma has two major, nationally recognized courses in Southern Hills (Tulsa, OK) and Oak Tree National (Edmond, OK). This is a testament and honor the state is extremely proud of – golf is beloved here more than foreign perception is aware. In the past several years, we have witnessed statewide representation of golf excellence from student-athletes at our major universities. The public excitement for the sport is real, and the city has come a long way in answering the bell to provide and offer golf facilities that will be worth the ‘drive’ and ‘range’. Take a ride with us on The Better Life golf cart to tour some of the favorite municipal golf courses in Oklahoma City.
