Golf Advisor: Top 25 Most Improved U.S. Golf Courses (2020 #11)

Almost Back
Ever since the change in course management companies the ownership has invested a ton of money and resources to ger Buffalo Creek back to the premier conditions it once was in. They are almost back! Thatch was removed from the greens a couple of months ago, which made them almost unplayable. Was extremely happy to see the recovery since then. Tee boxes and fairways were in great shape, as they've been all year long. Really enjoy playing BC whenever possible, and appreciate what the owners are doing to give us once again a premier golf course to enjoy.
Secret Of The Pros
Buffalo Creek is a beautiful course. There’s a lot of reviews on here on the green conditions.
If you complain about the greens feel free to meet me on the 9th green at 9 o’clock. It’s a secret of the pros.
Very Respectfully

Greens are dead
Still charged 60$when 14 of the 18 are mostly dead. A shame because this is a really good course.
Greens among the worse in DFW
I was looking forward to the round based on the reviews, but I’m confused as to all the rave reviews. Course is in good shape except for the greens which are easily the worst I played this year. Many greens have a lot of dead patches, often more than 50% of the surface. Putting was often a joke as the ball bounced severely with many putts. Course has improved a lot but the greens are in very poor shape.
GEM OF A COURSE
Buffalo Creek is a beautiful course and can be very challenging.
People who leave bad reviews need to make sure they check for any “GREEN AERATION” alerts on GOLF NOW before complaining.
The Club aerated the greens a few weeks ago and they have been recovering exponentially by the day. Yeah aeration season sucks, but it’s necessary.
I play this course 2-3 times a week and have absolutely no complaints.

recent reviews said greens were good.... really?
I play alot of public golf. I try to go where the greens are good and I can enjoy trying to put up a decent score by making a few putts. I saw that recent reviews had said Buffalo Creek's greens were good and rolling true. They are not - period. 13 of the 18 greens were burnt out and most of them were dirt/sand with very little grass whatsoever. Terrible. I think they are lost for the summer or even longer. It was disappointing to say the least. No mention of conditions from the clubhouse or the starter. Too bad.
The rest of the course was in pretty good shape. Bunkers had nice packed sand, fairways had good grass, there was a little bermuda rough, and the course layout is fun. It's just hard to enjoy when the greens resemble a mine field or a dirtbox. Pace was very good for a Sunday. A lot of things to like about Buffalo Creek, but the greens are awful.
Could be a nicecourse
This is a nice layout. Variety of shapes, elevation, and hazards. The greens were probably the worst I have ever seen in my 50+ years of playing golf. Some were cut to the roots, some were long. All were incredibly bumpy. There is probably a nice course to be had here, but they need to find someone who knows something about greens. I can’t convey how bad they were.
Great course
This is my favorite course in the Rockwall area. The layout is great and always in great shape. I recommend highly you won’t be disappointed
Have a great round!
Nice coarse
This is a very nice coarse, would have given it 5 stars on condition other than the greens had been aerated recently.
Last Minute Round
When the owners announced that they were working to return Buffalo Creek back to it's original condition I had my doubts. Having played BC when it first opened, compared to what it had become, I felt it would be a monumental task. Well I am excited to say, they are pretty dang close!
I haven't seen the course in this great of shape since the early 2000's! It is lush to say the least. A few of the greens had a couple of areas that were under repair, but overall they ran true, and were in excellent condition. The reworked tee boxes were amazing, and the fairways were pristine.
Can you tell I was very impressed?
If you haven't play Buffalo Creek in a while give it another try. I think you'll be glad you did.
Challenging test of Golf
This was my second time playing this course
This is a shot makers golf course is a good amount of water on the front and a challenging finishing 3 holes, but if you can hit it straight you don’t need to be crazy long to score.
We got out this weekend at 7am as a twosome and finished in 3:10
The time before was a 10:30 start and 4:20min so pace of play is vey good.
Highly recommended
Note. I heard they will punch the greens June 7
