1st round at Atascocita but not my last!

The course was in very nice condition for a fall afternoon. The pro shop guys were very helpful directing me to the first tee and the starter was very accommodating in get me on as a single.
The fairways are generous and the small greens are pretty fast. All in all a very enjoyable time I played the point/pinehurst rotation This was my first time playing AGC but it won’t be my last.

Challenging Layout for sure !

Interesting layout with very few straight holes. This course requires a good bit of shot making and creative thinking. Pay close attention to the opening holes on each side. The course was in relatively good condition and the greens putted very well. Its a fun course that will keep you on your toes.. I'll be back for another round that's for sure. Thanks Golf now for a great rate and good time

Its a Hidden Gem!

The course is in excellent shape for early fall. The leaves are starting to fall so finding balls in the rough may be a little tricky but if you are a fairway player then no problems. The greens are rolling pretty fast and have some undulations in them. All in all a pleasant round of golf with a friendly and accommodating staff.

Fun Round at A&M Course

Course was in very nice shape for early fall with the small exception the greens had been recently punched.
The putting was not affected too bad by the small punched greens but the rest of the course was in good shape.
Would highly recommend a round here.

Busy Day at Cypress lakes

While the course was in excellent conditions, the pace was some what slow due to a tournament in front of us, but that does not take away from the course being in great shape.The greens which are usually some of the best in Houston (public courses) were rolling very smoothly but were pretty grainy Maybe time for aeriation? All in all with a hot deal from Golf now this was an excellent value for the money . You should go check it out

quick weekend round

Got an early Golf Now hot deal and was able to beat the crowd and the weather. Course was in really good shape and the greens were rolling about a 10. Really enjoyable round. One small comment . If the small amount of foreign grass around the collars were pulled or spot poisoned then this would have been perfect conditions. Still this did not interrupt the playing conditions though. I hope they let the course superintendent keep up the good work! thanks

I'm Impressed!

Its been about a year since I last played Panorama but I got to say this is the best shape I have seen this course since I have been playing it. The greens are really nice, holding shots and putting true. Holes 10-18 were lightly sanded but still putted very quickly. The fairways, tees and rough all cut to tournament conditions. Good running gas carts as well. The starter was friendly and very helpful. Did not get to try the 28th hole (bar and Grill) as it came a rain shower on our last hole.
I would highly recommend this course right now.

Use the "2 putt rule"

Ok, I did not read the reviews before playing but yes overall the greens are bad, but the tees and the fairways are not far from being perfect, just a little foreign grass that looks like its been spot poisoned so a couple of weeks it will be great. Not all the greens are bad, ,the back nine seems better and I actually made two birdies on the greens that were good. Some greens are needing to be weeded for crow foot and crab grass while others need to be re-grass in spots. All in all if you play the 2 putt rule with you buddies you will enjoy your day on the course. the Staff is friendly and the pace was excellent for a Sunday. I will be back but it will be about a month. Good luck in getting the greens back to hopefully match the rest of the course.

Wintertime Golf

Played the course in a stiff north wind but the fairways were dry while other courses in the area were cart path only. Greens were over-seeded and putted well. Pace was great for a Sunday am.
I will go back. Great value with Golf now hot deal.

Sunday Afternoon @ the Eldorado

Course was crowded but the pace of play moved pretty good thanks to the Marshalls. We were able to get off the paths, which has not happened in a while. Fairways were in pretty good shape, the bunkers were playable and the greens were ok, just a little bumpy. A pretty challenging course to say the least, it had been a while but will be worth another trip to play. I would recommend this course.

Great Christmas Eve Round

Thank Goodness I had my Christmas shopping done and was able to slip out to play Westfork on X-mas eve. It had been a couple of years since I played it but the course was in good shape for all the rain we have had. Only a couple of greens that had a few bare spots, but other than that very good course conditions for December. Very friendly staff, and carts are in excellent condition. The starter paired me up with a couple of the regulars from the course. We had a good time. I would recommend it.

Fun round in Aggieland

Although it’s the dead of winter and we have had a ton of rain this course was in pretty good shape with only one hole that was wet. This is a fun track to play , staff was great , carts were new and pace of play was excellent. School is out certainly helped. I would definitely recommend a round at this course Aggie or not!

Really enjoyed the King and Prince

Fantastic layout with many memorable holes not to mention the unique 4 holes in the marsh. The course was in excellent condition for the 1st of February.
Played with a member (Bill) who turned out to be better than a caddie at pointing out how to play the course. The greens were smooth and fairly quick but would hold a well struck shot. Did not have time to visit the clubhouse other than to check in. Had to go catch a plane. Will definitely make this a return visit if I am ever on the course again. Maybe you can get lucky and have Bill play with you if you are going out early.

Very challenging course, consider "Play Forward" because of high slope rating

Very Hilly course with moderately wide fairways but with a 10 - 15 MPH wind they got a little tight. there are 4-5 blind tee shots on the course. Start the back nine with three woods on holes 10 -12. More holes with 3 wood tee shot on front nine. Greens were slow and a little bumpy and there were a few bare spots around the greens. Certainly 5-6 shots harder that the La Cantera Resort course, but had several awesome views of SA. Will go back and play again but with the Golf Now special rate it was well worth the cost.

The greens are really good right now

Course was in excellent shape for the heat and lack of rain we have been getting. We were just a twosome and no marshal to help get us thru the slow groups but finally did on back nine. Not the course's fault. We played Biloxi to Charleston as a large group of members tee'd off Augusta but for the Golf Now rate is was an excellent bargain. The carts were practically new and the course was well marked.

Fairways and greens in excellent shape, really enjoyed it.

This tree lined course played a little tighter than I remembered as it has been probably 4 yrs since I last played. New owners have the course in really nice shape though, Fairways are like carpet and the greens are in excellent shape as well (looks like they are going thru a transition to summer grass). Overall, I was really amazed at the shape the course was in. One suggestion would be to include a combo set of tees for us soon to be seniors. Alot of 400 yd par 4's from the whites Par 71 , 6600 yds and next set f forward tees are 5900 yd tees. Could use a set that was approx. 6300yds but hey I guess I am being picky (and winey). I will be going back as my buddy and I really enjoyed it.Thanks

The course was in super shape for the dead of winter. I'll be back!

The course was in excellent shape for the dead of winter. The greens were fast and smooth, although some of the pins were set in really tough spots. One word of advice, DON'T get above the hole or 3 putts will be in store. The staff was very helpful and friendly and the drink car was running full time. Ask about Troon rewards and get a bag tag and free sleeve of Callaways. Hey its worth a trip to go see if you have not played recently. Thanks Troon Golf!.
