Irving Golf Club
Played On 04/09/2016Very dissapointing
When I started golfing I played this course often, it was never a crown jewel, but it had a hint of a fairway and average greens. I believe this course was closed due to flooding over the last year and half the course was shut down. I booked a tee time to bring another new player to the game and it was quite dreadful. The entire course is grass/weeds. Sunset GC use to be the place to go hack around and every lie was the same regardless of where you landed, but that title now is equally shared by Twin Wells. The course was a ghost town on this particular Saturday. I was expecting to take 4-5 hours as I use to back then, but I finished it well under three hours and could have forgone the last few holes as I could not wait to get out of there. The greens all all dirt for the most part. Bunkers are now gravel like. The city needs to strongly consider either shutting the course down or dropping several million into it to bring me back.

Played On 11/15/2012No Frills, easy to play, where you go to learn to play!
I'll say this, it's cheap and therefore the course cannot be maintained with lush fairways and greens. You can pretty much hit the ball anywhere in bounds and have the same type of lie on or off the fairway. So unless you find all the hazards you should have a good time just rolling the ball up on the greens. The staff is friendly and down to earth. You can wear just about anything on course, which is nice when you just want to play in a tee and jeans. I've finished 18 holes in under 2 1/2 hours routinely so it's not a place that requires a lot of course management, just straight shots.
