Disappointed

I was looking forward to playing Cowboys because it was in such great shape the other times I played it.
Greens were quite rough. There was almost no sand on the bunkers.
Staff and food were excellent, but there are many courses in Dallas that are in much better condition for a lot less money.

First timer

Me and my brother were excited to play there for the first time. So we got the expensive early tee time so we could enjoy not having to be rushed or waiting on other players. Unexpectedly and unbelievably we were paired up with some club members. Friendly guys but rushed us anyways which threw us off our game. Could've have a better experience if we played alone. Other than that we had a OKAY time.

Looking to Splurge?

I went to the Cowboys Golf Club for the first time today and had a great time. Definitely a very pricey green fee but the amenities and food made up for it! The fairways might need a little attention but is understandable for the weather we've had in the DFW area this winter but overall a very fun course and I will be back!

BTW I played solo and had my fiancé as an additional rider (The club charges $50 for the rider so they can also enjoy the all inclusive food and amenities) and finished in about 4 hours from start to finish.

Horrible condition right now

The most over price course ever. I’ve played this course many times and it hasn’t changed besides gotten worse and the price has gone up. Right now that course is comparable to $50-$75 courses around here. I’ve played it when it was $199 and in amazing shape. Now it’s $235.00 and in no where close to being in shape for a $100 course. Extremely upset with the shape it’s in.

Hi Hunnabug,

Oh man! 1-star... we hate to hear this. We did just come off a 12-day closure due to below freezing temps in DFW and it looks like you might've played on our first week open, but we do expect much better than you're describing and it seems we fell short of your expectations. Just this past year, we have made significant investments in our practice facility as well as reshaping and rebuilding holes #2 & #13 with even more projects coming in 2024! Hopefully we will be able to win you back in the future. If you have any specific feedback or comments you'd like to share with us, please feel free to reach out to us at the club directly so we can address them for you. Thanks for the feedback!

Save your money, not worth it

I've seen better greens and tee boxes on a muni course in August. Seriously, how do they not water their greens or tee boxes with what they charge? Pretty much every green was damaged in some way, the fringes were a disaster and most tee boxes were used and abused. The fairways were decent so can't say much there, the pace of play started of bad but got better and we ended on 4.5hrs so not horrible. Was just not happy about paying $240 for a course in that condition. what a joke.

Nice Facilities but Not Worth the Money

The clubhouse, driving range and overall facilities were great, though I note that there was no practice putting green which someone who plays the course quite regularly informed me has been the case for over a year. The course is a decent layout though I found some holes to be a bit unfair. There are certain greens that are completely protected by multiple bunkers. Course was in ok shape, I expected better.

Bottom line, it was not worth the money. I wouldn't come back nor recommend it to anyone.

A 5 hour disappointment

No Range, No Putting green very tight muddy conditions and five plus hours of watching horrible players in front of us.

The staff mostly beautiful young women were very friendly, we tipped them well.

I may go back but it will be after the Bermuda grass comes back in.

u657528447, we are very sorry we did not meet your expectations. Between our putting green renovation and the recent tornado, our agronomy team has been putting in overtime keeping the course in the best shape possible. We hope you'll give us another chance to soon as the weather warms up and we enter growing season. Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review.

Maybe in the future

No putting green. Course in very rough shape. Greens great. Tee boxes awful. Fairways rough. Lots of rain lately but for 250 dollars, you expect much more TLC for the course. Food was great and staff was great. 6 handicapper

I had an absolute blast playing this course. On and off course amenities were second to none. Watch out greens are speedy! This was my first time out, but definitely won’t be the last!

Outstanding

The course is in beautiful shape. Lightning fast greens and plush fairways. I don’t know why so many people complain, the price is what it is. U get everything, excluding alcohol, for free. The clubhouse meal, the on course food + drinks etc is easily worth $50ish per player. That means you’re paying $175 ish for a premium golf course, great pace of play + unlimited range and putting practice. In my opinion, it’s worth the money. My wife and I paired up with two other men and we had a blast. Will be back soon.
