About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 6782 yards
Slope 129
Rating 72.7

Parlaying the successes of the Dallas-area Tour 18, Houston's version of America's greatest holes has become one of Harris County's most popular golf destinations. This one takes advantage of the Southeast Texas pines, with towering trees lining every hole, and the impressive conditions that have made both Tour 18s popular with the public.

Two holes stand out on the front side, and they're not the replicas of Augusta's Amen Corner (5-7 on this track). No. 1 is perhaps the most difficult on the course, intimidating off the tee because it is surrounded by wetlands. You'll need a solid drive to start well on this narrow, 440-yard hole. Bay Hill, La Costa, Inverness, and Pinehurst are also modeled, but the other great hole on the front is No. 9, a version of TPC Sawgrass's island hole.

Texas' own Colonial's third hole makes a showing on No. 12, and you'll get to see what Pebble Beach might feel like on No. 13. And those who've played the Dallas track know that the crew can sometimes get diabolical with their stimp-meter readings and pin placements, which is similar to what happens on No. 15-a replica of Shinnecock Hills' 8th hole. The green on this one slopes so heavily toward the front that a three-jack is almost certain.

Doral rears its head on No. 18, the perfect finishing hole for this track. Play the approach to the right side of the green, away from the water left, just like the pros do when they're protecting that precious lead.

Getting there : From US 59 north, turn right on FM 1960 and drive east for about 2 miles to the course entrance.

Fast PAce

Thanks to some light rain before our tee time and a forecast that said it may continue to have some rain, there was no one on the course. My son and I got through 18 holes in a little over 3 hours. The course was in great shape. It drains very well. It's fun to play on some famous holes.

Really fun course to play and in excellent condition. Pace of play here can be slow, but today was very good. Greens in great shape and overall a great day. As a perk, the Beer girl was super nice.

No Rain Check/Refund

A few of my buddies and I booked a foursome, but one of them came down with COVID the day of the tee time and couldn’t make it. We tried to explain this to Tour 18 and asked for a rain check or refund for the fourth slot, but the attendant said that because we booked through GolfNow, we had not technically paid Tour 18 anything, so he wouldn’t give us a rain check or refund.

Be ready to wait

Course itself is in great shape, but we had to wait on every tee shot and every fairway shot, super slow play and Marshall couldn't do anything about it, we got to play 13 holes in 4.5 hours, decided to quit after that.

Great course bad marshall

Picked a 2some to play with as a single. Course allowed 2some to say no. So joined an earlier 3some. 2some in front of us moving well. Little slow but great holes so no problems there. Single jumps the 2some behind us so we let him play though on a par 3 to join the 2some in front. Nope. Marshall comes by on the next par 4. We say hey why don't you tell him to join 2some. Says I'll see what I can do and goes the other way. You can guess what happened. Poor management there. Otherwise a very enjoyable course with great holes replicating some of the best.

Good variety

Course is not maintained as well as it used to be, but still good. Not worth the price paid. I took a friend from out of state there and he picked out a shirt to purchase. The price tag was $65.00 at checkout they said the total was $82.00. We asked why. The guy said, oh that's the price we pay. He bought it anyway not to cause a seen.

This is bull. You make a mistake, you eat it.
