About

Holes 18
Type Public/Municipal
Par 71
Length 5313 yards
Slope 128
Rating 71.0

The Chi Chi Rodriguez Golf Club, centrally located on McMullen Booth Road a comparably short course, offering just 5,313 yards from the blue tees and a slope rating of 115. 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.

Great surprise,,,,,,,

Looking around upon arrival was disappointed

By the time we got to the 3rd tee we realized this was a gem of a short little course

I played the back tees which stretched it out to over 6200 yards

The greens were better than any course around

Good for practice.

Many greens have areas under repair. Many tee boxes have little grass and mostly dirt. Greens pretty consistent. Very short course with a few challenging holes. For under $20 you really can't do much better. A good place to get out and practice some shots.

Worth it!

I’ve been playing at chi chi’s for about 15 years and this is the best I’ve seen the greens, yes the fairways and tee boxes could be more plush but you can tell they are really trying to take better care of the course. If you’re looking for anything better you’re going to pay 3 times as much. Go play the course and you’ll be very happy, I’ll be back tomorrow

Tall rough but smooth green

Rough was very tall and hard to find balls in but the greens were very smooth and well taken care of.
