Big beautiful golf course-impeccably maintained

A little intimidating the first round played last week but returned this week because the course is challenging, beautiful and so well manicured.

Started on the White tees but soon realized the Red tees would play better for me due to the distance over primitive areas on some holes. (Female golfer 12 Hdcp).

Dropped 4 strokes on second round knowing better how much extra club to take for hazards/humidity/wind etc.

Bottom line:

Really enjoyed the rounds here and will play again on my next trip to Houston.

This is a top notch course!

Tough course with wind

This was second time playing course. Played tips both times. The wind made it significantly harder. Nothing beats playing where the PGA played.

Always a great experience

The Club of Houston has everything I want from a golf course. Nice driving range and practice green, comfortable club house, and very well maintained conditions on a reasonably challenging layout. There are several holes with greenside bunkers that make me think about where to aim. Some greens can be tricky but I find all of them reasonable.

The one thing I recommend for your first visit (presumably why you are reading this) is getting a yardage book or GPS with visual aid. There are no pictures of the hole layout on tee boxes or the score card, so on my first visit, I did not know where to aim my tee shots on some holes.

OMG The Rough!

Have played GC of Houston many times & have never seen the rough as penal as it was yesterday. That & the wind made for a very tough day, but that's what you should expect from a tour course.

Great track but be prepared to struggle at times.

Punched greens, slow play

Hate to be one of those people complaining about slow play, but 15 min wait on the tee multiple times in a round is unacceptable. Circled back to other holes to complete an 18... found 4 holes with no one on them - nobody out there managing the course. Course is beautiful but greens were punched last week so not too fun on that front either.
