About

Holes 18
Type Public/Municipal
Style Links
Par 72
Length 6931 yards
Slope 126
Rating 73.8

Jimmy Clay Golf Course opened in 1974 with a 6,931 yard Joe Finger design that incorporates Williamson Creek. This track is flat as well, and is noted for its generous fairways and large, elevated greens. The first and last holes are perhaps the most memorable. No. 1 serves up a blind approach shot over a hill into a skinny green, and the 400-yard doglegged 18th plays into the wind with water on the left side.

Worth the Drive

Good course kept in decent condition. Would look even better if their ponds weren't bone dry. That said, fairways and greens were well manicured.

Love Jimmy Clay

Don’t listen to any of the reviews from over 3 months ago as they closed for the summer and re did their greens and they are fantastic for the course value.

Great City Course

The course was in excellent shape! We had a 1:20 p.m. tee time and finished by 5:00 p.m., about what you'd expect on a Saturday with fantastic weather (End of September). I definitely would play again.

It was alright...

Grass to long on most of the course. Spent too much time having to search for our tee shots that only went a few feet into the ruff. Marshal was nit-picky and not friendly.

Greens are Unplayable

It is honestly a disgrace that they have left the greens in the condition they have. Even worse the fact that they charge full price and act like nothing is wrong. Do not play here until the greens are completely re-done

Course condition

Greens are terrible, greens are mostly painted sand with patches of grass. This coures should only be charging for the price of cart rentals. I can say that fairways were in decent condition along with tee boxes. For this time of year here in Texas, greens should be 100% grass and not painted sand.

Horrible greens

They should be ashamed of themselves charging full price only to find out the greens are unplayable. Even the staff felt sorry for us. Don’t spend your money here for a very long time.
