Yeah, the greens were in pretty bad shape the last time I was there from the drought. It was OK to move your ball to a different location that still had grass on it, as long as you kept it the same distance.

Lincoln, much improved, Cedar Creek, bring the big dog, watch out for geese and what they leave behind. Purcell is fun when the grass is green. All pretty inexpensive, but fees have went up quite a bit in the last few years.
About five years ago I would agree but that is because there was no air circulation on several greens and the surface temperature on those greens was almost 140 degrees. Since they thinned out the trees around those greens and installed circulation fans that hasn't been a problem. The drought has certainly not been good for any course but Fairfax keeps the greens watered.
Not in OKC anymore, but I played a bunch of the courses over there. Lincoln west is a great course, it was one of my favorites. It's a muni, so it's not always in the best condition, but it's a very fun course and has some challenging holes on it.
Silverhorn is good as well, depending on the condition. Fun course, but unless it's in good condition it's fairly annoying to play.
Trosper is pretty fun as well.
There's a course in Moore I played a few times that wasn't too bad.
Same things go around all the courses in Oklahoma. When it's hot here, there's not a ton you can do to keep the courses from dying. At least not on the public courses.

My first suggestion is to sign up on golfnow.com to receive daily specials. You can really save using them. I used to marshal at Winter Creek in Blanchard and they have improved a bunch in the last year. I wish I was still close because last time I played there it was it really good shape. They have over 100 sand traps so make sure to take a sand wedge.
I live on a golf course and don't play...one of these days I may have to change that.
Thanks for the suggestions!
I have played Silverhorn and Trosper so far this week and spent some time on the range at Kickingbird. Everyone is doing green maintenance right now so conditions are iffy.

The trails down in Norman is nice and a challenging course. I haven't played any in OK since last year so far. But I did get to play Talking Sticks in Phoenix the other day. Talk about beautiful green courses.
Golf courses: Taking up critically-needed small arms range space all over the U.S.
I have played one time on that course and there is a really nice house on hole #10.
