Winterstone is a good layout with various challenges for players of all levels. A midweek winter round was played on a warm and windy day. The course was busy which led to some waiting between shots. Our round took an even four hours. The grasses are still dormant in the fairways and rough. The greens were fair. The speed of the greens was down a little but it is expected for this time of year. With 5 sets of tees you could have drivers and long irons or drivers and short irons for approach shots. Hills and lots of trees add to the desire to keep the ball in the fairways. The staff is always 5 star. Can;t wait to go back!

Shoal Creek is always a great course to play. We jumped on a hot deal from Golfnow.com. Anytime you can get in a round during the winter season is a plus. Sunny with temps around 50 and light winds made for an excellent round of golf with friends. The grass is still dormant but the crew has been at work around the course. I couldn't believe how many trees have been taken down. None that affect your shots but around greens and between holes. It's going to let more light and wind in. I'm anxious to get back during the summer season to see the full effect. 5 stars to the staff. They are always so friendly and helpful.
