About

Holes 18
Type Public/Municipal
Par 69
Length 5454 yards
Slope 121
Rating 66.4

The Chi Chi Rodriguez Golf Club, centrally located on McMullen Booth Road a comparably short course, offering just 5,454 yards from the blue tees and a slope rating of 118. Most of the fairways are wide, making errant shots still playable. In essence, it is the ideal place to work on your golf game, to correct that nasty slice or learn to hit that oversized driver without fear of losing 100 balls. As a result, it is a favorite among novice golfers who want to be challenged but also have an enjoyable round.

Short, but SWEET

Better condition than most area courses. Nice greens and traps. DONT be fooled by the short yardage… course has a lot of great holes and plenty of trouble if you don’t play smart

Nice

Everything was great except they should let people know that beer is not allowed on the premises. It’s just nice to have a beer now and then.

First time here

Staff and starter were super friendly. Tee boxes smooth and level and most had good grass. Fairways and just off were a little bare in a few places but very playable Greens were in good shape.. Wasn’t sure what to expect but was pleasantly surprised . Will return.
