Iron Horse Golf Course

Nice course, poor up keep. Pace of play was slow because at least for my group we had to look for every ball that didn’t land on the fairway. They didn’t have any carts available so we were 10 minutes late starting. Slow pace of the play meant we had one of our party that had to leave on hole 14. Only saw the beer cart twice in 4 hours. Two holes line up beside each other and are cart path only. It slowed down play and is not marked cart path only

The tee boxes in the middle six holes in particular are difficult to plant a tee into. Fairways were in good shape.

The course ranger was predominantly present for the front nine; the beverage cart dropped by frequently.

I don't recall an excessive amount of "cart path only" holes.

Bathrooms (in the physical form of a train car) are present in the #7/#10 tee box area as well as in the middle of the back nine. They are spacious.

For my twosome, a $5 voucher was utilized.

There is an automatic water bottle filling machine in the clubhouse between the men's and women's bathrooms. There is a putting green near #1 and a driving range.

There are decently placed signs instructing you where the next hole is. Unfortunately, there is no course map on the scorecard.

I do hope that the yardages the GPS provides are accurate. It can be difficult to find the ball in the rough.

#7 & #10 each involve a carry over the water twice.

The course conditions were very good. Nothing bad to say except one thing. My wife and I played. It was not clear which were the women's tees. She played the ones in front of the Ironhorse tees as the other ones were way too close. The ones she played were not comparable off the tee to a man's tee therefore the equality of the tee difference usually always gave me the advantage. The women's tee distance should be reevaluated.

greens were slow except for 14 and 15 which are newly refurbished and played fast.

Group of 8 playing in front of us, we called the clubhouse and the marshal never came.

Greens were inconsistent, back 9 was completely re-seeded (cart path only, different type of grass in the fairways). 2 greens were under repair. Tee boxes on back 9 were torn up. Would not recommend for the price.

Another fun round at IH. The course drained extremely well from the previous days rain. Cart gal came around several times. Practice facility and great shape and enjoying the new carts. 12-17 still cart path only due to new sod that’s greening up nicely. Tee boxes on 7&10 still need some work. Not enough sun maybe?

I really enjoyed this course. Great layout, challenging holes and fast greens. I will definitely be back. Friendly staff on course, pro shop and club house.

Since the renovation this is a solid course to put in your rotation if your in the Fort Worth area. Not sure what they did but the carts have been slowed down to a snails pace I guess to control pace of play but it was definitely an issue. Course is in good shape with exception to a couple tee boxes needing to be watered more. Once they let carts on 12-17 that should help pace quite a bit, had a twilight round that ran 4.5 hours so almost there.

Iron Horse is looking great after the recent renovations. Fairways are greening up and the new drainage the was put in place seems to be doing the job. Holes 12-17 are still cart path only, but it’s my understanding this restriction will be lifted in a couple weeks. Greens are better than ever. Running hard and fast. #7 tee box still needs a bit of work. Almost forgot to mention...brand new golf carts! Beverage cart came around 4-5 times. I think in a couple months it will be a 5 star. Looking forward to some scrambles and glow ball events. We will definitely be returning and adding this course to our rotation.

You have to stay on the cart path on the whole back 9 holes,
Didn't like that but I'm sure they have their reasons they have a nice golf course

Wish I could have known that the fairways had been aerated prior to booking the round. Brought in a friend from out of state and built up the golf courses' improvement since the rebuild. Just made it miserable to play in the heat of the day and not allow carts on the fairways. Now I understand if they were soaking wet fine. But at 4pm in the Texas sun, they were dry and carts should have been allowed. The GPS control of the carts is way too restrictive. Slowing the carts down on long stretches between holes is ridiculous. Some holes that run parallel, the carts are restricted even when you attempt to use the cart path for an errant shot into another fairway.

My first time playing here since the upgrade. Nice course and good conditions. Our round was close to 5 1/2 hours. This apparently is the norm on a weekend. Staff is nice and it's a fun layout. Waiting 10 minutes for every shot isn't fun. Don't think I'll return.

This course is fun and in good condition, however they always seem over booked and pace of play is at a snails pace. If you want to enjoy a round here you should try and play on a weekday. You’ll also save $20-$30.
