Golfer Reviews
Gotta have Graham
Course conditions were impeccable. My guests loved playing with the grandstands being put up. Graham is the BEST! Enhanced our experience and round. Played with high handicappers so Graham also gave lessons. Spot on with yardages and green reads. Weather was an A+++.
This course SHOULD be on your list!
Love this course!
Love this course! It's always nice to play a course you see the pros play on TV. To put yourself in the same spots you see them play on a Sunday afternoon, and see how you can measure up. Nice!
The course is in excellent condition. The fairways are smooth and always provide a perfect lie. The rough, while thick and grabby, is fair. The greens while smooth and true, were a little slower than usual (about a 9 - 9.5), but typical for this time of year. They are getting ready for the Houston Open, so letting the course fill out for tournament setup.
It was cartpath only to keep the playing area in good condition, so no complaints there, however it does slow your round down to 4-4.5 hours.
Our fore-caddy, Melvin, is top notch. He provided input when requested, but pretty much let us play our game without interference. Great personality and fun to have along.
Of course, it's a little pricey, but you get what you pay for. We try to get GCOH in our monthly rotation once a month.
The Shell Houston Open Course
The course was immaculate - which is what you would expect 4 weeks before the Shell Houston Open starts. Navigating the course is not easy but the caddie was great, providing the right target line for our skill level and helping us read the greens. This was the first time I have ever completed a round of golf in 3 hours in Houston (normally 4.5 - 5 hrs). An early start and only 2 of us helped. Overall an expensive round of golf but if you haven't played the course well worth the money especially if you can play when the course is in such good condition. Go on, spoil yourself!
Play where the pros play
Always a great track and home for the only PGA tour stop in Houston.
In excellent shape
Played about 5 weeks before the SHO and just after UH's AAII. Course was in excellent condition - as good as I've ever played. The greens were surprisingly slow but to be expected in prep for a PGA tourney.
Will definitely be back.
Great collection of holes
If this course flowed a little better, I would have given it five stars. It's set on 450 acres, and the distances between 1 and 2, and 17 and 18 are very long, which makes it difficult for spectators during the Shell Houston Open. But the holes themselves are terrific and most memorable. There's nothing boring about this golf course, and the finishing stretch is among the best in golf, culminating with one of the best par 4s you'll ever play (water down the entire left side with a foreboding fairway bunker on the right). Best to time to play by the way is the winter or spring because the course is heavily overseeded. It really is a cool-season golf course.
Perfect Outting
One of Houston"s best course to play any day of week.The course conditions were perfect for this time of year,but a little windy.This is a bucket list type of course so if you get the chance go play It!!. I would recommend this course to anyone that loves to play. Great value for the money
CART PATH ONLY
I was disappointed that the club did not make any prior announcement about the course being cart path only until you get out there. This is their policy until the PGA tournament in April, which is four months away. The course condition can be characterized as furry since they are growing the greens and fairways so that they can cut it short for the upcoming tournament. If this is their standing policy to have cart path only four months out, it would be nice to know ahead of the time. For over $100 even at a discounted rate, I would not recommend this course for my friends and certainly won't pay that to play again. The concession stand only offers hot dogs, so bring your own lunch if hot dog is not your thing.
A real treat
Great PGA championship course that was in great shape. We had to take a caddy, I wasn't sure about using a caddy but Adam was knowledgeable, encouraging, and his advice was spot on. The greens were slow but true. The pace of play was fantastic! It felt like we had the course to ourselves. A little expensive with a caddy but we were on vacation and truly enjoyed our experience!
Poor Groundsmen
The boys in the Pro Shop were very nice and courteous and very helpful. After I got out on the course the fairways grass was so tall it was almost like being in the rough. It started raining pretty hard on the 2nd hole and I had to wait awhile for it to pass. After starting back up when I got to the 7th hole a grounds person was mowing the green and he stopped and waved me to hit but just stayed on the green while I hit. On my second shot on to the green he just kept mowing while I was trying to hit and wouldn't quit mowing. Very distracting while trying to hit. I was pretty po'ed and just left the whole giving him a piece of my mind. Then on the 17th whole I was fixing to hit my 3rd shot up on the green and one of the groundsmen comes up and cuts a new hole while I am fixing to hit and pulls the flag out while I am yelling at him so he sticks the flag back in and just stands there. I am so frustrated at him I just gave him a piece of mind and went on to 18. Was very disappointed that I paid $100. Will not play it again and would not recommend it to anyone. Very over rated in my opinion.

Golf club of Houston
Course was in good condition, maybe not the perfection you expect for this type of course. Got rained out at 14, can't stop mother nature but by the time you pay fees and caddy you are getting close to $10 per hole in these cases.
Hey "u00000294953" thank you so much for the 5* review! We are so sorry that you got rained out after 14, come see us again soon!
