BlackHorse Golf Club - North Course

I’m a 19 handicap and found the North course perfect for my level. Had a fun round joining in with some old locals who brought the 80s music and comedy value. Pro Shop is awesome and staff are all really friendly and helpful. Top notch experience and will definitely be back if not become a regular there.

Played Black Horse recently. Normal green fee for a weekday is $100. As a Senior rate was discounted to $70. The course was ok, but no where near being worth $70, much less $100 Green fee shouldn’t be any higher than $40.

Course layout was fun and challenging. But wasn’t happy at all with the overall condition of the course. It was cart path only due to heavy rain from days prior. Off the cart path was very muddy and didn’t seem to be maintained very well. Fairways were rough. Rarely hit off of any good grass. Greens were in good shape. Just can’t seem to justify the high price. Would like to try it again in the summer

Good overall conditions. Too many sand bunkers. Mostly straight and flat so not particularly challenging or interesting. Also not much to look at visually.

I’ve played the course many times before but it’s been about a year since I was last there. The new carts are a disaster. They shut down the moment you enter the rough, requiring you to back out before you can proceed. Same with all cart path only holes, of which there were supposed to be four but in reality there were 14 today. Makes no sense in the TX heat. The carts automatically slow at cart path intersections and on the course to remind you of the “90 degree rule”. I’ve always enjoyed the course, but it’s gone geriatric. Too many other options to want to deal with that again.

Course was in decent shape. Greens were rolling fast and true and the fairways were decent. Some bad patches and gir but overall acceptable. The course has a pretty average layout compared to the south course but it does have a great stretch from 4-8. Very scorable from the blues even with heavy wind. Carts are very small but do have a gps and you can prder food/drinks to grab at the halfway house. If you can find a hot deal under 50 it’s definitely worth it. I would not pay full price for the current conditions however.

If you enjoy having a drink and standing around for 20 minutes on each hole this is the course for you.

First time playing this course & it was great. Layout is awesome & staff is very friendly.
Greens were punched but still pretty good

When I arrived there were no carts available. Once I got a cart and went to the range there were no open spots to hit from so there was more waiting. There were no Marshall’s on the course to govern pace of play. You could tell this course gets a heavy dose of play. The greens were inundated with ball marks that are not being fixed. The carts will stop on you and say 90* rule in effect even though I was observing the rule. There were several holes deemed as cart path only even though they were not wet. The whole experience made it for a frustrating day. I don’t have any plans of playing here again.

Played this course right after the freeze in Houston , but stafff is very friendly , course is well laid out , greens are decent , overall a decent course .
