The Golf Club of Texas

A fun course to play but bring a garmin to see the issues.

The greens really held your line right to the cup! Nice

Genuinely love this course!! Was referred by a friend and now I’m out here twice a week! Glad to call this my home course!

Our tee time was delayed because of a slow tournament. We teed off one hour after our tee time. When addressed to the staff they blamed the tournament golfers instead of better managing pace of play. Tournament groups were cutting in between regular groups causing many non-tournament golfers to quit in the middle of the round. Unbelievable & Unacceptable.

The course was in as good of condition as it has ever been. Fairways were lush, greens were sanded but were still quick a had good roll. Weather was perfect as well, just wish I had played better, but that was all my fault.

This course has improved over the last two years. Fairways are better. Greens are good.

While I wasn’t met at the bag drop, once I ran into staff in the clubhouse and the Starter were all really nice, friendly and welcoming. Can’t comment on the beverage cart because there wasn’t one which was very surprising for a Friday.

Speaking of carts, I had to switch carts before even starting because the brakes wouldn’t engage, and even in the only other cart available the brakes were hit and miss, so just had to try and park on semi-flat areas during the round. Another thing I noticed on the carts is that not all had a pin placement card (I had to borrow a card from another cart, the one where the brakes didn’t work) in fact some didn’t even have a slot for them.

Those are all pretty minor issues since this is about golf...the course was generally in fairly decent condition but once you get off the fairway (and not by far) you can easily find patches of bare ground. However if you’re on the fairway the grass is nice.

The greens rolled ok but seemed somewhat inconsistent in speed of course that could have just been my inability to properly calibrate to them. Same with the sand traps, especially some of them around the edges were extremely roughed up.but shouldn’t come into play unless you just happen to roll back into that mess (looking in the mirror!)

Course layout was ok, not super challenging nor easy either. I do think I need to play here again to give it a second chance, we’ll see.

We recently played several courses in the area.GCT was in the best condition of most of them. The greens were firm and fast the fairway’s we’re in excellent condition. Will be headed back soon.
