Waiting Game

If you got 5 hours come play this course. they need to find away to speed up the golfers on the course. It's not fun or enjoyable to hit a shot 10 to 15 minute apart. You could take a nap between shots it so slow.

Even Better Gus

Love the history of this old course. Played it a lot in the 80s, 90s and 00s. Really missed it when it was down for the reworking but the wait was really worth it. Course in fine shape and the physical changes made it so much better. Very enjoyable.

Gus Worthan

The club house attendant was not very friendly. The starter said I could tee up early because there was a three-some that I can play with. However, the club house attendant said no because I booked with golfnow. It makes me feel like a lower tier paying customer and was offended.

Speed greens

The greens will make you think about how you want to play your approach shots. If you land on the green the ball most of the time is going further than you think it will. The greens can be a bit deceiving with the breaks due to the speed so you need to pay close attention about where you you think the breaks are as you may just hit right through it. I hit a couple of 30 foot putts and I felt like I had barely hit the ball. It makes for great competition with your foursome and will make you think about it a little more before you putt. The short putts can also be difficult as I had a couple that I hit the lip of the cup and it rolled ten feet past the hole. Great greens!

Great Value, Great Course

$50 for a 9am Saturday tee time cannot be beat in Houston. Every fairway was in great shape. Greens rolled true. Only thing that would be better if they had tee times on weekdays after 5pm.

Great course Slowewww Play

Love this course, unfortunately no Marshall’s to keep the pace of play. Had a group in front of our 3some and no one on the tee box ahead of them they were just incredibly slow and would not let us play thru. Other than that beautiful course awesome layout and very challenging.
