Lake Park Golf Course - Championship Course
Played On 10/06/2014Good municipal course
This is a mostly wide open course off the tee -- not many sand traps or water hazards. Many parallel holes - no really memorable holes. Course was in good shape -- greens will hold shots and putted well. Very slow pace of play -- golfers on every hole even on a Monday early afternoon. I played as a single and ended up skipping around to avoid constantly waiting to play. But overall an enjoyable golf experience.
Old at Firewheel Golf Park
Played On 09/15/2014Nice layout, conditions need improving.
Most of the holes were in good shape, and almost all of the greens were nice. But there are several areas where they are scaling back or eliminating bunkers, and the whole area is just ground under construction. When these areas all fill in with grass, The Old will be back up there with a higher rating. But right now, those skinned areas are not good. Still an old style layout that is fun to play.
Glen Garden Golf & Country Club
Played On 09/10/2014Great classic golf course
By today's standards, Glen Garden would be considered a short course, and a bit on the quirky side; not because the holes themselves are quirky, but because there are back-to-back par 5s, back-to-back par threes, and the course ends with two par three holes. Several really good holes at Glen Garden. Greens are in good shape although they can be tough to hold downwind. Wind makes a number of the shorter holes play much longer. Great history to this course, and a fun track to play. It is closing in November, so play it while you can !
Pinnacle Golf Club
Played On 09/04/2014Nice golf course !
Course is fun to play. Greens are in great condition, fairways in good condition. There are some fairly straightaway holes and some very quirky holes. You gotta drive your ball straight here. Very enjoyable round of golf!
SugarTree Golf Club
Played On 08/27/2014Excellent golf course !
This course is in excellent condition. A good layout, fun to play, must hit your drives in the fairway to score well. Greens are great, fairways are very good, tee boxes could use some improvement. Overall an excellent place to play. You will not be disappointed !
Tanglewood Resort Hotel and Conference Center
Played On 08/11/2014Good little course near Lake Texoma
Course was in good shape. No real memorable holes except for number 18. It is a beauty. Good pace of play (was not crowded the day I played). Easy to get a tee time. Greens were in good shape. Not an easy course, but not overly difficult.
Falconhead Resort & Country Club

RB Golf Club & Resort
Played On 07/31/2014Good track - fun round of golf
You will enjoy playing this golf course! Nice layout with some challenging holes, some risk-reward holes and some opportunities for birdies, too. The fairways are well grown in with grass, but could stand a little more frequent mowing. All but one green were in excellent shape; it was a little splotchy and had crabgrass throughout. The tee boxes need some TLC -- many were nothing more than a small area that had been mowed at a lower setting on the mower. Overall, the course was in good shape. A fun round of golf !
Tour 18 Dallas
Played On 07/30/2014Great course gone bad
You can't beat the layout of holes at Tour 18 -- they are all replicas of famous holes throughout the US. But the terrible condition of the greens makes this course unplayable. They look like a dog with the mange. Splotchy and bare, the greens are in horrible shape. This once-excellent course has suffered from poor ownership and management over the years, and it is currently at its worst. It is a shame to see such a great track in such poor condition. Do not play this course until conditions greatly improve.
Wildhorse Golf Club of Robson Ranch - South/West Course
Played On 07/30/2014Wildhorse -- Robson Ranch
Nice layout! A few quirky holes, but mostly straightforward and fun. Fairways are great; greens are really good. An enjoyable round of golf !
KickingBird Golf Club
Played On 07/12/2014Great municipal course
I had been told to play this course when in Edmond, and I was not disappointed. Got right on and played the front nine as a single -- took 52 minutes! Things changed on the 10th tee, and I ended up joining two other guys for the back nine. They were great to play with, but we had to wait on every shot . Back nine took 2:20 to play. Every hole was stacked up -- no place to go if we had played thru. So we waited. As for the course, it is a great layout and in fantastic condition. The greens were smooth and quite fast -- just like I like 'em ! Course is not overly difficult, but no pushover either. A very enjoyable round of golf (with the exception of how long it took to play the back nine).
North at Lake Hefner Golf Course
Played On 07/06/2014Nice golf course
Course was in good shape, greens putted well. Challenging but not extremely difficult. Really good condition for as much play as it gets. You will enjoy your rounds here.
Wildhorse Golf Club of Robson Ranch - South/West Course

Coffee Creek Golf Club
Played On 07/06/2014Terrible greens
This course is a nice track and has the potential to be a really good golf course. But the greens are in terrible shape. They changed over from bent to Bermuda some time back, and for whatever reason they are 90% dead at the present time. The golf shop personnel were up front about the condition of the greens, and they offered a 50% discount in green fees (around $15.00). The rest of the course conditions were fine, and the course is a really good layout. But the condition of the greens makes giving this course a higher rating impossible (I cannot overemphasize how bad the greens are). If they can somehow get the grass to grow in on the greens and return them to good shape, I would recommend this course. But with their greens in the current condition, that is impossible to do.
Pine Dunes Resort and Golf Club
Played On 06/16/2014Beautiful golf course
Pine Dunes is a jewel of a golf course. A little out of the way, but well worth finding it. Always in great condition, beautiful layout, great greens.....it is a wonderful golf experience. It is a challenging track from the tips, but there are several sets of tees to make it playable for any level golfer. You will not be disappointed ! One of Texas' finest daily fee golf courses. It should definitely be on your bucket list !
Gainesville Municipal Golf Course
Played On 05/15/2014Greens in bad shape
I have always enjoyed playing this course -- been playing here on and off for over forty years. It is a really good layout and pretty wide open -- not extremely difficult, but a fun course to play. The one thing I've always liked about this course is the great condition of the greens. They have always been well-maintained and smooth to putt. But on this occasion the greens were terrible. Half the putting service was bare on almost all the greens -- they were just dirt. The rest of the course was in good condition, but the greens were so bad it took all the enjoyment out of the round. I could not recommend this course to anyone with the greens in their current condition. If they can return the greens to their normal smooth putting surfaces, then I would recommend this course for a fun round of golf.
Lakeview Golf Club
Played On 04/08/2014Fun municipal golf course
Course has a good layout, not too difficult, enjoyable to play.
Falconhead Golf Club
Played On 07/20/2013Practice facilities and course conditions way down
I have played Falconhead the last 5 or 6 times I have visited Austin, and on each occasion I went home and bragged to my buddies about what a great facility it is. But when I visited Falconhead this past July, things were quite different. First, the practice facilities. There was almost no grass on the driving range, and they had allowed the putting green to bake out to the point where it was in terrible shape. I know it gets hot in Texas in the summertime, but that putting green looked like it had just been let go. Texas golf courses require a lot of water in the summertime, and it was obvious that not enough water had been used, and the maintenance of the putting green had dwindled to next to nothing. The course itself was very dry, but the greens on the course were better than the putting green. I hope the staff will take a look at these comments, because I really like Falconhead, but I won't continue to return there if the conditions don't improve tremendously.
