Jimmy Clay Golf Course

It is very challenging, several different types of greens, hidden, island, downhill, 2 uphill, one in a "mountain", be ready to use a high loft club for this one, located in 10th hole. 18 is a huge challenge starting from the tee box, left or right , its woods, green orotected by 2 hughe bunkers. . Im definitively playing this course again as many times as possible. Has 2 courses, the other one is Roy Kizer, more of a links type. Has a par 3 as well, and practice range, with chipping and putting area. Could you ask for more?

joined a twosome and we completed round in about 3hrs 25 minutes, there were quite a few walkers. course greens and fairways were in very good condition in spite of time of year. fun course to play.

i`m new to here. and beginner.Jimmy Clay Golf Course is near my house, so it`s convenient. and they playing with me are very kind. i had a nice time. Thank GOLFNOW.COM SO MUCH!! I CONTINUE TO contact GOLFNOW.COM .

Condition was OK, front 9 very short but narrow, back nine short but a bit more open.

On a day like yesterday, it was great to be out losing balls!! The greens were over-seeded so it made putting a challenge. I know it has been a challenge this summer to keep the course in shape so my hat is off to the groundskeepers. The people in the clubhouse continue to be consistent in rudeness and attitude. The kid behind the desk couldn't muster a "Hello", "Enjoy your round", or "Thanks for playing out here". I know this job may be somewhat menial in comparison to his dreams of being on the tour, but common sense would dictate that he show a little courtesy to keep people coming back which might help to continue paying his salary. Just getting off the stool/chair to greet people would be a start.My gripe about the muni course employees is nothing new, but I keep going out there anyway because I like the courses. Einstein and his definition of insanity and I are good friends.

It was cheaper than I thought it would be, then on the first green I find out why. They apparently over seeded them and they were uncut...very shaggy.

Greens had minimal dry patches an course was much more manicured compared to 2013

Jimmy Clay is improving weekly. Some of the greens aren't in the greatest shape, but they look better every time I come here. I played with a friend of mine last week and he said it's immensely better than in years past. One frustrating aspect of the course is there are a lot of dog legs off the tee. So you can't hit your driver as much as Roy Kizer, but it offers an extra challenge. I now play here a couple times a week. Great value.

Hot and busy. It took us almost 5 hours but it was moving, not log jammed just busy. Staff was friendly. Food was the average bar/ballpark food but good. For as hot and dry as it was the course was in great shape; green grass on the tees, fairways, and greens. Just a couple of patchy spots. Greens are a little longer and slow because of the heat.

The overall course layout was nice but almost every green has all sorts of sand and patches with no grass that makes putting next to impossible. Definitely worth it to play kizer instead for the few extra dollars. Course was relatively shady but those greens were terrible.

Booked a single for 7:28am to try to get a round in quickly. Got paired up with a beginner golfer of 4 months. No big deal. We started slow but got moving after second hole. Caught up to foursome in front of us then it went downhill from there. Finished round 4.5hrs later at Noon. No Marshall at all to speed things up. Course was in great shape despite a couple of rough greens. Actually paid $5 less than what I booked for online! Can't beat that.

For a muni, the course is great. Greens are a little rough but doesnt keep me from playing it. From the tips, it can be a real challenge.

Keeps looking better each week. Great staff. Fun to play and practice.

Fun course to play, some of the holes on the first 9 aren't as well kept as I would like but the back 9 is awesome

Jimmy Clay is a traditional layout. It is an older, established course under the City of Austin. Due to recent rains the fairways are in good shape. Most of the greens are still suffering from patchy grass and inconsistent roll--better than about 6 weeks ago--but too many still in need of restoration. It was a very good round under the "fire sale" price. The normal fees would be a little steep for the quality of play.

The course is beautiful but the office staff came across as "snobby"

This is a fairly easy and fun to play course, and would get a higher review but the greens are mostly unplayable. There are maybe six greens out of 18 that we're worth putting on. The rest were in very bad shape. I can see they are working hard to recover them. I understand the hard freezes this winter and the drought were big factors. I'll be back when their fixed, but will avoid it until then. The Kizer course next door though us in superb condition. Playing there next week. Highly recommend

The greens are really bad. Don't play unless you don't care to putt.

With as much water as we've had in the last few months, I would have expected Jimmy Clay to be in much better shape. All be two of the greens need to be replaced. Aside from the company and the beer, I was extremely disappointed with the course.

Found a great deal on Golfnow. Fairways in good shape but most greens were very rough.
