Rockwind Community Links - Championship Course
Played On 05/16/2019Good course, fairways and rough in iffy shape
I remember when I first played this course 2 or 3 years ago when it had just opened, and it was in such better shape then. Rough was pretty long and there were a lot more of the waste bunkers. Also, fairways were in good shape. So many dead spots. But it’s a good course, it’s got bluegrass, just hard to keep. It’s a tough layout, especially the greens, which really can just be too ridiculous at times. I hope it gets to be in better shape. I know even Rawls has these troubles.
It did suck that my group got to the back 9 and were welcomed with 3 groups that were told to start off on the back nine.
Old Brickyard Golf Course
Played On 11/04/2018Great layout sabotaged by terrible conditions
I’m going to give it maybe a little bit of a break, because of the rain last night and since were getting to that time of year, but it’s not that it was super muddy, it’s that this course, which still could’ve been fun, was in terrible condition and this course needs somebody to come in and fix its problems. There are weeds all over the place, the greens are hairy and also weed plagued, and it’s not gonna help that they are letting carts drive on the grass today when they really shouldn’t. I see why it’s fallen in the rankings.

Played On 07/14/2017Excellent Course, very slow
Maybe it's just a DFW thing, but this course took forever to play. It took us 5 hours to play on a Friday morning. Maybe they need to spread tee times out a little bit, but man, it's not fun baking in a humid 98.
On another note, the course was in fantastic shape for the middle of summer, it was a beautiful course with great holes, lots of variety without being unfair. Try to play it when it's not super busy, because it's one of the best courses in DFW.
Stevens Park Golf Course
Played On 08/01/2016Maybe the Best Course I've ever Played
Only complaints: Got backed up on the back 9 (I don't think it was a big group or anything, just got backed up), no cartgirls on weekdays apparently, only two water fountains on the whole course (the one on the back nine tastes like pipe), Par 70 (6 par 3s) may turn some people off.
Pros: The holes are some of the most creative that I've played, the whole course was beautiful. It just had a very welcoming atmosphere, and the course just had a great charm to it. Well conditioned, skyline views on the back nine are incredible, and the whole course was awesome. It isn't terribly difficult (as in it's not going to punish you for good shots). Playing smart golf is vital to a good score here. There are plenty of elevation changes, and no two holes are really the same. Only thing I would've done differently is stock up on drinks so I wouldn't die in the 100 degree weather, and maybe played it at a different time where it wouldn't be so crowded (but that would've only made the weather factor worse.) Fantastic value, and a course you could take somebody you want to impress. I don't like using this term, but a real jewel of a course.
