Course was in very good condition - pace of play could improve - layout was enjoyable, not too hard, not too soft.

The Bridges Again

Course was in great condition. Greens were perfect, but extremely fast. The layout is very long & difficult from the tips and you don't want to be above the hole putting with the grain - very slick.

Rebuilt Course

Greens were tall and bumpy - the new tiff greens will take a while before the improve.
A few holes had the same old drainage problems with the area just in front of the greens were wet and boggy.
No improvement there.
Needs more time to get good.

Fair Conditions

Greens were aerated and sanded. Greens very slow, had not been mowed. Pace of play was terribly slow.
This was my 2nd time to play this course - 1st time was about 2 wks ago and the conditions were great and the pace of play was good. I like the layout very much - I will be going back when the conditions are improved.

The greens were in very good condition - the fairways were in good shape - as were the tee boxes. They are growing lots of grass.

Windy

Enjoyable course to play - greens have lots of slope, very grainy as well. A few greens are in very bad condition for some reason - they need to get them fixed before they lose
them completely.

Cool & Comfortable

The greens and surrounding fringes were very wet due to watering them the night before to protect from a freeze. This moisture made them very smooth and fair. Fairways could use some extra grass, but it's wintertime.

Tough Course

Greens were in fair conditions - very grainy - lots of undulations - impossible to stop on some downhill putts. Many sand traps are dirt traps - need to rework traps or convert to grass bunkers. Lots of impossible pin placements due to the contours on the greens. The greens are no fun for the average player.

Condition of Greens

The course was in good condition with one exception - the greens were AWFUL. They are old style bermuda and had patchy spots everywhere - had green paint to cover bare spots and had not been mowed.
I have played here several times in the last few years and the greens were OK - something has gone wrong recently.

Need some sun & warm weather.

The weather has been cold and wet for weeks & weeks. The course should be in great shape after the grass has time to grow. The course was as dry as you could expect due to good drainage.

Good course - great value

The greens were great - the fairways & tees were good - definitely a course to play again. Played as a twosome - the 4some ahead of us waved us through on their own without prompting,
A great feature of this course is after you leave the 1st green, you will NOT hear another auto, just birds singing and the wind whistling through the trees - a very relaxing day on the course.

Great value

The greens were excellent - the fairways are in great shape - pace of play was wonderful @ a little over 3 hours - the course is not difficult, but there are a few holes that will grab you when you get careless - plus, the cost to play is very reasonable.

Course has been remodeled.

The remodel improved the corse - it is fairly tight and requires you to drive it straight.
It is much more enjoyable to play now - much fairer.
I would play again even though the pace of play was very slow.

Tree lined layout is a challenge.

Course plays longer than it's yardage due to elevation changes and doglegs. Greens were very firm and some were very undulating - don't get above the hole on several greens - you are in deep trouble if you do.
The par 3's were 201 - 201 - 203 - 189, the 189 was uphill into the wind - very tough set of "short" holes.
The course location is out in the country - no freeways or city noises - just the birds singing - very relaxing.
I will go back.

Very tough track with great views.

It is NOT for the faint-hearted.....lots of difficult forced carries over ravines.... be sure to hit the fairway, if not, be prepared to drop another ball.... it was definitely worth playing and you would be much more at ease the 2nd time around. I played Aug. 21, and it was hot & humid.... ball seemed to not carry as far with the wet air condition.... plus the greens are very deep from front to back, pay attention to the pin position.
Nick in the shop was super friendly and the starter was very helpful as well, can't remember his name but he was left handed and was from Tyler, TX.

Nice layout - keeps your interest.

Course was in good condition - some easy holes - some difficult holes - good set of par 3's - the cost was a very good value since I booked late the night prior to the tee time as a single - the other 3 slots were filled by other GolfNow customers.
I will be booking a future time at this facility.

Very nice facility & course.

The greens were recently sanded, but were very playable. The greens are large and undulating, challenging to putt and chipping is difficult as well - bring your "A" short game.
Pick the correct set of tees to play from - it is an exceptionally long layout.
The location is a little remote and tends to get most of it's play from locals on the north side of Dallas, therefore the course is normally not too crowded. This brings up another good point - It is very quiet , no cars or freeway noise, just the birds singing and the sound of the breeze blowing.

Nice layout.

The greens were super fast & some hole locations were nearly impossible due to being located on a slope. They did roll very true - just very fast. The course was in good condition and the layout offers some easy holes to offset the difficult ones. It is worth a return trip.
