Black Sheep Golf Club

The concept for Black Sheep Golf Club was developed by a small group of golfers in the fall of 1999. The intention was to build an outstanding golf course where serious golfer can play with a prompt pace and enjoy the camaraderie of friends and fellow members in an unpretentious and casual atmosphere.

Located west of downtown Chicago near the intersection of Interstate 88 and Route 47, Black Sheep is a 27-hole facility laid out across a former 285-acre farmstead. A former Ohio State golfer who played professionally for a brief time, David Esler designed the layout in keeping with such classic inland links as Shinnecock Hills, Prairie Dunes and Sand Hills.
