Enjoyed the round.

Thank you, beverage cart girl. You were courteous and professional. It was grand to see you come by often enough to make up for a lack of drinking water on the course.

Very disappointing

I have played this course many times over the years.

This time, it was not worth the 80-mile trip.
> the tee boxes and fairways need irrigation.
> the greens are being taken over by crabgrass. Even if greens are shaved, putts bounce every which way.
> we played the front nine in about two hours, but then were forced to wait on almost every shot during a three-hour back nine.
> the jugs of water that were sparsely provided ran dry on a very hot Houston day. There was NO beverage cart service.
> Two of my playing partners were forced to quit after 12 holes.

Very disappointing.

I have played this course many time when conditions were more than acceptable. But this time, I found that:
a) the greens are being taken over by crabgrass and putts bounce all over the place.
b) fairways and tee boxes could use watering.
c) the back nine took almost three hours to play and we did not see a single marshal who might help.
d) even though the day was Texas-summer hot and humid, the on-course water stations ran dry and there was no beverage cart service.

Thank you so much for your thorough feedback; we have made many recent upgrades to the golf course including a new fleet of golf carts, a renovated Clubhouse, extensive repairs to the cart paths and repairs to the bunkers; much work remains but we are working ward to improve the golfing experience and so feedback like yours is very helpful in gauging our progress.

Fins Up!

Water, no water

The course was in good condition. But I give it a poor rating because some holes were being watered (not very efficiently, since puddles were forming), but on the other hand, THERE WAS NO DRINKING WATERT TO BE HAD AND NO BEVERAGE CART IN SERVICE despite the fact that the shade temperature hovered in the high 90's.

Heck of a way to drum up business for the C.C. bar..

Punched greens

Generally, good conditions, but either Quail Valley or GolfNow should warn golfers that the greens have been recently aerated.

The punch holes on the greens made true putting impossible.

Half a course is not as good as a full course.

Greens in fine condition. No quarrel with back nine. But the front nine fairways are dirt.

Good Aggieland course.

Wide-open course with visibility. Some challenging holes.

Please, please, there needs to be some signage that indicates where to go for the next hole or the green.

Slow, slower, slowest

The course was in great shape and the greens smooth and true. The gentleman in the pro shop was helpful.

BUT we had to wait on almost EVERT SHOT. The blame is shared among slow golfers AND THE LACK OF MARSHALS. We saw not a single marshal in almost five hours.

The course needs a lot of work.

The layout is interesting and has real challenges. But the fairways are dry and most shots are from tight lies. The greens were not mowed and so slow and bouncy as to make putting a joke.

Course needs work.

I have played Southwyck for decades and I have seen it go through stages of good/bad conditions.

These days, the fairways NEED water and some smoothing, because driving a cart on ant fairway puts the health of your back in jeopardy.

In addition, at least half the greens are just plain awful.

I hope the poor conditions are transient and that management will allow proper maintenance soon.

Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about the course is important to us. We are working to get everything up to par. We have projects ongoing to recover the fairways and greens. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We are going to escalate your feedback to our team so we can make improvements before your next game, and we will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. We hope to see you again soon.
