The best testament one can give The Golf Club of Texas (formerly known as The Golf Club of Texas at Briggs Ranch) is that it hosts some big local tournaments.  The large greens and tee boxes are some of the very best San Antonio has to offer.  This is truly a high end facility. If you have not been out to enjoy this course you really need to.  The place is all greened up and with the unique landscaping it's just a real pretty experience with great golf.   The golf carts are outfitted with GPS which gives accurate distance to the pin and shows the contours of the greens.  This track combines Links Style golf with Hill Country golf, giving players a taste of both types of golf.  The course is among the best that San Antonio has to offer. The senior staff is very experienced and the service is all that you would expect at a high-value public course.  The new clubhouse is beautiful and features a full service restaurant. After playing a round, you will really enjoy just sitting on the porch and taking in the view.

Directions:  20 Minutes from downtown. Take U.S. 90 west to Texas 211 (2 exits past loop 1604) and we on the right.  From downtown take 90 west to Texas 211.

staff

Staff was very skeptical that i was indeed the person I was saying I was, which I am. It seemed weird that I had to confirm who I was. I've used GolfNow to get tee times 100's of times all over Texas in the past few years and this is the first time I ever had to confirm without a doubt, who I was.

Nice layout; great price; zoysia greens difficult

The layout of the course, condition of the course, price and people at GC of Texas were very nice. The greens are zoysia grass, and were very inconsistent to read and putt. Balls wouldn't hold their line due to the bumpiness of the greens. Also the greens were not receptive because the greens were very hard. If the problem with the greens were fixed, this would be a fantastic golf course.

Excellent value

This course is great weekday course with a challenging layout, good pace of play this day no one in front of behind tee time 12:30 ish. Only issues were the bunkers which is well documented but not definitely not a deal breaker, and the greens don’t have much bite so play a lot of roll. Good luck!!

Great course but...

I love this course, and the staff but you can’t avoid the seniors in the area and they really hold up play. I understand that most people like to hit from the tips but the senior tees are there for a reason. Why do you want to shoot a 200 from the tips when you could easily be shooting in the 80’s from the senior tees. Not speaking like I’m some amazing golfer, my handicap is in the low 20’s and I tee off accordingly to not hold up play but It’s not uncommon for the seniors to have 2 to 4 cart pile up just waiting to tee off.

Sweet!

I really enjoy this course. It's a tough course if you miss the fairfairways, but the fairways are generous. Love the grass, love the greens, my only bad mark for this course are the bunkers, otherwise I would give it 5 stars. I'm planplanning on getting the Wrangler membership, unlimited golf, range and a monthly comp round at Concan, sweet!

Needs Attention

Fairways extremely over watered(soft and muddy with extreme waste of water resource), greens under watered(hard and crusty)! Sand trap! What sand? Mud holes mostly! This course could use some attention, could be amazing if they really wanted to invest the time. Won’t go back any time soon.

Course wet/ants/sand traps unplayable

Used to be my favorite couse near Alamo Ranch...not anymore. Restroom on course disgusting. Traps unplayable for months. Overpriced Win free round of golf but have to pay for cart...sad.

Men get preferential treatment in restaurant and food service has routinely been slow.

Over priced

Fairways are in good shape, that’s it. Bunkers are unplayable, tees are in ok shape, greens are rock hard. Need to be better to justify a $70 greens fee. I actually really enjoy the layout of this course but with a staff more concerned about talking with each other than to customers and the overall condition, it’s just not worth the money.
