Rating 75.0

The environmentally friendly Blackhorse Golf Club in Cypress was designed by Peter Jacobsen and Jim Hardy, who teamed to build one of the best 36-hole, daily-fee facilities in Texas. Designed to maximize the natural setting, this beautiful complex is a perfect setting for golf with its huge variety of oaks, elms, and wetlands that provide habitat for a wide variety of bird species. Holes 4-6 on Blackhorse Golf Club's North Course generally get the best of high handicappers. Holes 4 and 5 route through massive trees and expansive wetlands, both playing over 400 yards. No. 6 is the North Course's signature: a 180-yarder that tees over the bend of the creek to an elevated green enhanced with railroad ties and framed by bunkers.

Great Golf Course

Nice design and good conditions. I would recommend to trim tee boxes a little bit more and maybe get greens a little bit faster.

Incredible Course

I love playing here it never disappoints. It is challenging for me as an average player. The only thing I would say is that the pin placement on the cards has not been right on any of the times I have played. So judge it for yourself and look at the groups ahead of you to see where they are at relative to the shape of the green and bunkers surrounding. All and all I love playing at blackhorse.

Hot time at Blackhorse

June afternoon tee time in Htown are usually hot and humid. This didn't disappoint! Staff was great, got a safety meeting on hydration from the starter (Vince)!

GPS on the carts was very 'sensitive', carts shut down often, be aware of the blue stakes or (15 yards proximity)

The snack shack / bar at the turn was closed at 5p on a Friday? Luckily, the pace of play allowed for plenty of time to go the clubhouse bar.

Lots of foursomes playing from the blues that prob had no business on anything other than the Whites.

Nice, challenging track in great shape but Hot and SLOW

Great Coarse

Both courses at Wildcat are great! I think the Lakes course has a little better views. The course was in great shape. There were a few patches on the edge of 1 or 2 greens but it didn’t affect play. The group in front of us seemed like they were playing really slow but in the end we finished in just over 4 hours.

New carts with GPS are terrible

The golf carts have new GPS systems that are terribly calibrated. During the round the cart shut down about 20 times while we were driving on car paths or in normal territory on the fairway.

Busy course where carts are retar¥ed

We played the north course, which took nearly 6

Hours to play as course was chocker blocked. either don’t pack the course like sardines or get marshals to do their jobs. Marshals nowhere to be seen.

Carts are those smart carts that will switch off if you not in the area where you should be. So if you slice a ball and go searching be ready to push your cart or go in reverse each hole. That is taking technology too far. Again a couple of extra marshals would be nicer than making carts high tech.

Course layout is great though. But think will only come to spend $90 on a round if a hurricane is coming through in hopes of not having course packed like sardines in a can. And next time I will walk!
