Avery Ranch Golf Club

the course was not in good shape when we played it. the greens were being airated, so they had a lot of bumps. the holes were interesting and the staff was very good.

Sometimes Avery is great, sometimes it's in rough shape. My last round the greens had just been sanded and no one told us when we booked, checked in, or tee'd off. Got to number one green and it was like putting in a bunker. Other than that, the course was in nice shape.

My family frequently play this course. Typcially in good shape. Greens have been plugged and sanded getting ready for spring. Sand traps need more attention. Inconsistent quality with many having large rocks and hard pan. A large walking contingency contributes to slow pace of play. People taking short cuts from 11 green to 18 tee late in the day caused backups as well. This needs to be better managed if not halted.

Played on a Saturday morning. They have nice chipping green, putting greens and driving range to start out with. The course was in good shape considering it is the end of February ! The green had just been airated duing the week so there was a little sand on them, but they still where in good shape.

Played this course just after the greens had been "sanded", so not a true indicator of how this course normally looks and plays. Sand on the greens definitely detracted from the action on the greens and made the putts much slower. It appears that the winter months have affected the greens and fairways of this course to a much greater extent than other courses I have played in this area. When the greens are in good shape and the dormant grass begins to come out with warmer weather, this course should be back to it's normal great condition. Lengthy holes are the norm here, so be prepared with your long game. Offers very different looks and challenges on each hole, so you will not be bored when playing this course. Has creeks/ravines that enhance the challenges on several holes. Also plenty of trees. Two thumbs up regarding the bunkers/sand traps ; they are very well-maintained. Plenty of wildlife to see throughout the a typical round--deer, chapparals, and squirrels. If you can get a good price through GolfNow, do this. Otherwise you will pay a rather stout fee to play here as compared to other area courses. Note that the carts are not equipped with GPS, which is an oddity for a couse with this kind of fee scale. Has a nice practice range. However, the putting greens are a glaring weakness; could use a complete make-over of the putting greens. Overall, when the course is in top condition it is worth it to go and play it.

I really enjoyed this course. Plan to take the family next time.

Played for our Annual President's Day Cup here and the experience could only have been better if I had remembered my golf shoes and actually played well.....
The course was expectedly in great shape - it ALWAYS is. Other courses around the area need to take note. I wish I could afford a membership.

Beautiful course. Well maintained. Great value! I can't wait to play here again.

I love this course and would highly recommend it, especially if you can find a deal on GolfNow. The course is in great shape. The greens are rolling great and the course is challenging, but not too much.

Avery Ranch is a very nice public golf club. They greens run true, fairways stay green and it plays well. Could be difficult for beginners, but it is worth a round at all levels of play. Expect to play at least 4 hours and maybe longer just because of distances from greens to the next tee.

Course was in very good shape for winter golf. Driving range just off the first tee box is nice plus having the chipping green next to #1 makes it nice to be able to swing the club before you start your round. The only down was GolfNow showed GPS and the carts do not have this. Other then that is was a good outing.

Needs better fairway markings on distance to pin .
Difficult to read hazards on score cards.
Blind shots should be marked at tee box
With distance to hazard

Course need to find ways to encourage members to fix ball marks and fill divots

Course was in perfect shape. Hard to believe for February.

I had a great time. The friendly attendant let my partner and I skip back a few tee times in order to warm-up. It is sort of dangerous at parts on the course when you can't see if there's someone in drivable range up ahead just out of side, ex. #18 when down by the ravine on the left, halfway to the hole.

Course is in really good condition for this time of the year, a must play for out of towners.

Enjoyed a good round of golf in cool, windy conditions on this course that is not very forgiving. While it is quite easy to lose a few balls if you veer off the fairway too far, if you keep the ball in play and can take advantage of the smooth greens running at a good pace, you can put a decent score together. The 5th and 7th holes in particular deserve respect. They can easily ruin you score, as they do to me this time out.

A very "Hill Country" golf course, with lots of elevation changes and risk-reward experiences. They offer a great practice facility. Course conditions were overall good, after several days of very low overnight temps. Tee boxes, fairways, bunkers, greens all were in good shape. The rough can be pentalizing, with the rocky outcropings,catus. Plenty of deer on the front nine in the afternoon,so be careful you may hit one.

I am from Oregon and play year around, but I have never played in colder weather. 25 at the start and 32 at the finish. But as cold as I was, I quickly overcame that as I became excited about the challenges of the course. I decided to play again the next day when it was slightly warmer and I want to come back in the spring.

One of the best balanced courses in Austin. A great mix of tight, challenging holes with a few wide-open scoring opportunity holes. I've golfed here in every season and the course is always in great shape, even when others are dried out with drought.
