About
WestRidge Golf Course is a unique Jeff Brauer design that features a user-friendly layout. The design tips out at a standard-looking 7,041 yards, however its combination of six par 3s (none over water), six par 4s, and six par 5s is far from normal. Brauer incorporated deep bunkers, natural areas, and lakes to accompany the huge, undulating greens that await hacks who become lazy after getting home in regulation. Other than the unique hole combination, WestRidge Golf Course's drive-able par 4s (nos. 1 and 13) are notable during the summer months because they play downwind and are good birdie opportunities.

Great course, poor upkeep.
Overall Westridge is a fun, challenging course; however, the wear of winter is still obvious and the greens are beat up. They are doing a good job of getting the course ready for full blown golf season, but it has a ways to go once the weather complies.
This course plays different from every tee box which provides a nice alternative when in the mood. The fact the course is also the Devil's course (666) with six par threes, six par fours, and six par fives means you can either love it, or hate it, and nonetheless it makes for atypical outing.
I definitely suggesst giving Westridge a try, especially if you can catch a hot deal and don't have to pay full price.
Good course, rude marshall
I have played this course several times and like the overall design of having six par 3's, six par 4's and 6 par 5's. I was also looking forward to the new sand in the bunkers. We ended up not playing and got a refund due to the way we were treated by the marshall on the first tee. We were on the tee at our starting time and the marshall was yelling at us to get off the tee because it wasn't our turn. I don't have a problem stepping aside if it's not my turn, but he could've been a little more polite in how he approached us instead of yelling from a distance. We packed up, went to The Trails of Frisco and got right on. I'm sure I'll go back to Westridge, but it may be a while.
Open course. Bunkers undergoing renovation. Greens not great.
Overall a good course that is very open and fair. Good to see that work is underway to renovate the bunkers which were bad last year. Greens are not great. Had just played at a course in Frisco with great greens. West Ridge greens have so many undulating areas that is is difficult to see a hole placement on a relatively flat area. Great puts can roll off to the sides of holes by 10 or 12 feet on many holes. Not because they are too fast but rather due to holes seemingly places on sides of rolls in the greens.
Intersting layout....very busy course
I really like the layout with 6 Par 3's, 6 Par 4's and 6 Par 5's. The Staff is very friendly and accommodating, with a terrific practice facility.
The only negative is that they seem to overbook the tee-times, because the 2 times I have been there the tee-times are backed up at least 10 minute late, and the course has been VERY crowded.
It seems to be a very family friendly facility and environment, but at the cost of expecting 4-1/2 hour rounds.
Oh well, for the $20 I paid for an afternoon round... can't really complain much.
Drunk Cart Girl and Poor Player Etiquitte
What to say about this course. They are currently upgrading a lot of bunkers so it was almost like playing golden tee avoiding obstacles. The course itself is very challenging. 18 holes can take an easy 4-5 hours. The Pros- The guys in the pro shop were professional and courteous. The Cons- 1. Our cart girl was hammered. We ran into her on hole 4, and were assured she would be back. When we got to the back 9, we stopped off at the clubhouse (1 1/2 hours later), the cart girl was hanging out claiming she had a family emergency (ok then why are you still hanging out). The seem to have issues keeping their carts running. One of the staff was towing a cart in. While driving down the cart path he was completely oblivious to the players and drove on through while the warning beeper on his cart was going off. Too many kids on this course, we were on our second shot on a par 5 when the kids playing behind us decided not to wait for us to clear our second shot. I was grazed by a drive.
Good course still working on it
This was the second time I played this course, and I could tell that they have been working on the bunkers to get them corrected. The regulars seemed to be agitated that we weren't playing fast enough, even though we finished in under four hours. Overall the course was fun, the newly reworked bunkers were good, and once the other bunkers get fixed I will probably give this a 4star.
Pick your tee box wisely, because there are very short and very long par fours.
Love the course layout it has something for every golfer.
The course layout is impressive and not overly crowded by houses like many of the courses DFW has to offer. The greens were in good shape and the bunkers that needed attention were under repair. All and all great bang for your buck!
Great minus construction
Other than the bunkers being under contruction, it was great! Also, booking a 3some before and after a 4some happens, but I wouldn't mind being bumped to allow the 3some after us to go ahead. They were clipping at our heels most of the day, and hit into us a couple of times.
Course is great! Staff is great! Food was great!
Good condition over all considering the recent snow & rain.
Many of sand traps need work - low on sand and not draining correctly.
Over all a good golf experience.
Great layout
Shot making course. Tough pin placements. Good greens and its a Hank Haney property, so you know it will be well kept.
Fun, unique track. Overall quality standby.
This is one of my favorite "average type" courses to play when I'm visiting the McKinney area. I have played this course several times as a single grabbing a last minute deal on the weekend. I do mean DEAL! I have snagged a $15 round twice, and several $22-26 rounds. The staff has always been friendly and I have always had a good time with the threesomes I get added to. 6 par 5's, 6 par 4's, and 6 par 3's make this track very unique. It's a refreshing change. If you haven't played this course, give it a try! I "George Foreman" guarantee you won't be dissapointed.
Cool Setup
The only course in Texas with a 6x6x6 setup... A lot of fun to play, and a great opportunity for some low scores. I ususally play 4 or 5 strokes better than my average score when I tee it up at Westridge which is always encouraging and makes for a great handicap booster.
The practice area is top notch and has plenty of space for a solid warm up.
Good course. Nice Greens. 6 chances to put it in the cup from the tee box.
Great course
Got a great deal on golf now and played there for first time. I will be back.
A good value
Front nine plays easier than the back; consequently, slow play usually results on the back 9. Also airplanes taking off and landing on back 9 can be distracting. Bunkers were hard as rocks and unkept; standing water in a couple.
Great Price on a MOnday afternoon
Just played Westridge yesterday. On the weekends, this is a $60+ course. During the weekdays after 1 you can typically play for $29. Great course for the weekday value and we were fortunate enough to hardly have anyone out there..barely saw anyone the whole time. Course is well maintained, plenty of space (no fairways right next to each other) and there is a cool small airport right near the course (planes come in to land right over your head). Very well maintained course, greens are tough..fairways are wide open.
