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.

Golf Club of Houston

Played this morning. Course conditions were excellent.

Greens running fairly quick. Maybe 10/11.

Fairways were perfect.

It was hot today. 100.

But if you can get a good deal, is higher recommend this course in the Houston area

No rain check and Slow play

Unbelievable allowing people and charging people with a wet course to play in the rain not giving a rain check. Slow play without a marshal around. Waited at least 10 to 15 minutes between shots in the back nine when rain subsided. What a momentum-killer not just for my group but for 2 to 3 groups behind us in the tee box waiting
