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.

Beautiful course

The course is beautiful! I love the hills and the turns that is has! As a novice golfer it was very challenging, it made me a better player afterwards. One thing I don’t like about it is the driving range and course aren’t in the same location. That is splitting hairs. But I will be back to play the course again once I lower my handicap haha

Not as short as the card reads

This course did not play that short from the back tees. Extremely tight made it very challenging. Lightning-quick greens caused score to skyrocket. I liked it!

Short but challenging

Although the course is on the short side you will use every club in the bag. Greens are fast and good shape. The fairways need some work but very playable. Fun course

Goulashes Needed

It was not raining but had rained the nite before. We were sent out without any warning from the Pro Shop that the course was basically unplayable and under water. After one hole, we returned to the Pro Shop who told us I had to resolve the charge to my account directly with GolfNow.

I felt I was misinformed by course management before being sent out to the 1st tee.
