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.

Everything was great. Heavy rains the night before so cart path only and no driving range. Totally acceptable due to conditions. Great fun !!

Tour 18 NTB

Needless to say, I had high hopes for this course. Unfortunately there was some dissapointment. The layout was good as it relates to famous holes, however they definitely letting the course go down. you can tell that at one time it was great shape. One shouldn't have to pay a high price just for the name alone. I definitely expected better maintanence. Again the layout was good, along with the pace and the weather. Also if yu're not going to have ball washers, at least put one on the cart. If you're only going to see the beverage cart on two holes, at least have more water stations with cups. Thanks for the visual.

Fun experience

The course was in great shape especially for the time of year. Lush fairways and soft but well maintained greens resulted in a great experience for my buddy and I.

Golf now. Call yourself

There is no value to using golf now. The green fee was the same. The sur charge from the app is crap. Call yourself and save the money. The course is not worth the price.

I will never play this course again.

The worst part of the round is how there are 3 groups on every par 5. Our round took almost 7 hours and in the past the carts had range on them and told you a little bit about the history of the hole.The greens and very inconsistent, most of them are very slow but then you will come up on a hole where the green is ice. I had to wait 6 holes to get water to refill, in texas you would expect water every 3 holes so that was annoying. Overall the round was not worth the rate and will never play here again.

Ever heard of irrigation?

Another overpriced Houston golf course. Why do I pay 2X the amount of a regular golf course in Michigan? Yes, winter golf has its perks but for what price? The noise from the road and construction is constant and it’s nearly impossible to concentrate. The course goes through a neighborhood and they are actually builindibg an apartment complex in the middle of this course. My advice is stay away and only golf at the Golf Club of Houston and Memorial Golf Course.

Only thing I would say for them is to work on the greens a little bit other than that course layout is perfect. Definitely will be coming back.
