Lady Bird Johnson Municipal Golf Club

Played on Sunday with my son. The course was in good shape considering the drought we are in. Enjoyed the layout but the pace of play was horrible. Left after 12 holes as every tee box was backed up 2-3 groups waiting. There are far too many walking the course and it slow the rounds to a crawl. Also many groups of 5 which further compounds the slow play.

The staff was very friendly and the new grill was a nice addition. We were disappointed in the condition of some greens. Some had just been aerated, and some were very rough temporary greens. Overall, still a good course for the price.

This course was in great shape considering the drought we been in.

Lady Bird is a good lay out with friendly staff but with two temporary greens, Half the fairways are fried, the greens bumpy and some spotty. It is not currently a great place to play.
It also should be noted there is no drinking water on the course and signage is poorly placed for you to find the next hole.

I have played this course around five times and this was the worst shape I’ve ever seen it. The person working on the greens did a terrible job. The front nine is closed due to bad conditions but the the way the back nine was it should be closed also. I know there’s a drought but seems like it would be in better shape. Not worth the Five hour drive to get here.

Course is in terrible shape. Two temporary greens (which they did not alert us of when we made our reservation) plus just pretty burned up. Assuming due to the hot weather and drought but other courses are surviving better. The greens that were "playable" were either shaggy and slow putting or full of crab grass and bare spots. I have always heard this was a really good course but after this experience, I doubt I will ever go back.

This is a typical muni course but we were stunned that for the money we paid there were temporary greens and the GPS didn’t work. Would not wish this course on my worst enemy.

Some interesting holes. Rolling terrain. On this date front nine greens hit hard with what appears to be a fungus. Back nine greens good. Couple of moderate forced tee shot carries. Would play again when temp is less than 100 deg. Gas carts, prefer electric.

I am a muni golfer my whole life and have a lot of latitude for small muni courses due to lack of funds. Having said that, the greens are unplayable. They have lost the turf and now that the hot weather is here, they will not be getting better. Hopefully there is a plan to rebuild and maintain them.

After calling ahead to check the conditions of the course, the person at the pro shop stated the course was in “great condition” and that he “just played it yesterday.” The man also mentioned that a “few” of the greens had some dead spots.

Upon arriving to the course, I quickly realized that through the 18 holes, roughly 9 of the greens were in HORRIBLE conditions. There was hardly grass anywhere on the green. The rest of the course was decent but the greens were quite frankly unplayable. Besides that, it’s a fun course.

Lady Bird is always on the top of our list for courses to play many times each year. In the past, the greens were in outstanding shape but for some reason they are in terrible shape - very little grass so one putts on dirt vs green grass. Not sure if this was due to something with the cold December however the course overall doesn't look up to the Lady Bird standards. The facility & staff are top-shelf and always make the trip to the course so enjoyable. Hope to see it return to its past glory as it looks like it's going to take many months to get it up to scratch.

Unfortunately the geeens were unplayable. There should be a huge discounted green fee, but not the case. Can’t come back for a while.

Played with a couple of friends familiar with the course. They were very helpful with navigating course. Several greens were rough/damaged which is reason for lower score for course conditions. Pace improved greatly after a slow group of 3 men let us play through (thank you!). Paid $60+ to play at 1:30. Seems too high for start time and condition of greens. Would play again when greens are better. Actually had my personal best round as well—despite the greens.
