About
Blackhawk rests on the site of an old dairy farm, where the rolling terrain is suited for this links-style layout. This wide-open course features lots of water, loads of bunkers, and huge greens that are easy to three-putt if your approaches are off and you don’t have that feel for lag putting.
Each side has a punishing finishing hole. No. 9 is a monstrous par 4 that plays 464 yards. Off the tee, the narrow landing area is not conducive for the necessary booming drive, and the water causes problems in the fairway and around the green.
Hole 18 plays 430 yards, requiring a tee shot into the dogleg-right fairway that must thread two bodies of water.
The club prefers that you walk only on weekdays.
Getting there : Take I-35 north out of Austin, then exit FM 1825 east. Drive 5 miles to Hwy. 685 and turn left. Drive another 2.5 miles to Kelly Ln. and turn right.

Golfer Reviews
Nice greens
Pace of play awesome greens were nice this time of year some fairways need work but overall for the money great choice
What You See is What You Get
Blackhawk Golf Club offers affordable rates ($52 weekends/$25 weekdays) for a no-frills course in Pflugerville. It's a good option for beginners or casual golfers due to its easy layout with mostly par 4s. However, the greens are consistently in poor condition, which can significantly impact your putting game.
Disappointed
patchy fairways with areas that were also muddy from excessive watering. Greens also in poor condition due to lack of attention. Very disappointed in the course condition. Also no water stations on course on such a hot day.
Waste of money and time
The course is in such bad conditions. Fairways do not exist. You pipe one down the middle and there is rocks and long grass and bare spots all over the course. Whoever the greens keeper is needs to be fired. For 60 bucks I can play so many other better courses.
Improved and looking good
I live nearby and play this course often. There has been some work done and the greens and fairways look the best they have in years. Still lots of work to do. But I’m very imp with how the course is looking this year. While the previous bad reviews I would say we’re deserved. I’ll say they have made quite an improvement this year.
No water and poor course conditioning
No water on course, no water available from cart service. Muddy areas and poor fairways and green conditions on every hole. Not worth the money.
Pasture pool
Overall the greens were in pretty good shape. The rest of the course, fairways and rough were in horrible condition.
Would not recommend this course to anyone unless they put a ton of work into returning this course to playable conditions like they were in the past.
Fun but unkempt
Was a fun course but the rough was extremely long and lost a lot of balls.
Work in progress
Greens are fast and flush. Fairway, not cut, crab grass to high to locate golf balls.
Playing a Cow Pasture
I’ll start by saying this course has so much potential. The course layout could be really fun if it was in far better conditions. Imagine mowing a fairway into a cow pasture and that’s Blackhawk. There is crab grass everywhere. So many dirt spots, holes, and trenches in the fairways. The greens were in okay condition and were the best part of the course. The pace of play was horrendous most of the golfers hacking their way around the golf course and have zero course etiquette. The group in front of us way playing so unbelievable slow. One guy would be on the green putting while the other 3 were searching for balls, twirling the clubs while walking around no where near the green or just overall doing nothing to keep the pace of play. They had zero interest in letting us play through, while all of this was happening people were jumping in front of us to make sure they finished and slowing the pace of play even more. Considering they are charging similar to course in the area that are far superior it makes no sense to ever play here.
Rehab Rounds
I have avoided this course for years due to bad reviews and overall condition. At 8 weeks past knee replacement, I needed a place to test my endurance and this course was good for my golf rehab. So much so, that I played a second round a week later. The positive things I can say are that they are trying to re-sod portions of the course and I didn't have to sink a lot of cash into my rounds, not knowing if I could finish. I did finish, both rounds, and after a few holes I stopped thinking about my repaired knee and just played golf. Now, some fairways are just beat up, so you have to improve your lie and play on. My biggest issue is that there are so many in play areas that just don't get mowed. Again, you just have to leave it to yourself to decide how to play. Greens have some rough spots, but are not horrible. They just play slow.
Rehab is over and I will move on to other courses. Thanks to Blackhawk for my golf rehab! Best wishes on continuing to improve your course.
Good Value
Decent prices but the rough/greens could use a little work.
Improvement
Greens are in shape and fast. Fairways have alot of crab weeds
If Normandy was a fairway
Impressive how solid the greens were but some of the absolute worst fairways in the Austin area by far #TrenchCity
