Chicago 🐟 question for you. If I land at ORD on Monday at 730am with a checked bag, could I make a 9am tee time at The Preserve at Oak Meadows (play 18), then still be downtown (Loews) for a meeting by 1pm?

This comment is absurd. AI and research on traffic patterns and airport delays will only get you so far when planning a day. The best knowledge is gut checking with the people who experience what your about to experience most.

I hope whatever stick is up your rear gets removed soon and you find the love you never had.

Why do this to yourself? I love golf but that's 1) Stressful flight; 2) Stressful round; 3) Late meeting arrival highly likely

Yes. The preserve is a 15 min uber from ohare. You aren’t getting an under 4 hour round and travel to downtown. By 1. That’s silly.

What if it was 2pm? That’s the actual time of the meeting but I’m trying to budget time to shower and change

2pm would be really tight but I could see it happening, without a shower, and change on the way in the car

Mostly likely is your flight will land at ORD 20 minutes early and then wait 55 minutes for a gate. Whole schedule wrecked.

Could you play 9?

You couldn’t do it without a checked bag. Chicago traffic is a nightmare and everything at ORD is delayed.

Thank you to almost all, appreciate the local knowledge!

Have you never played golf and have no idea how long it takes to play 18? Lmao
