ShadowGlen Golf Club

My recent round at ShadowGlen was disappointing. The pace of play was excruciatingly slow, clocking in at 5.5 hours with constant waits and no marshal to enforce pace of play. To make matters worse, the fairways and greens were severely aerated, making for a frustrating experience on every hole. While aeration is necessary, the course conditions combined with the snail-like pace made for a truly unsatisfying day. I'd recommend checking conditions before you play.

Overall Rating: 2/5 Stars

The course gives free balls for the driving range. That was the only positive for today. They started us on the tenth hole which is no big deal. The problem came in around the 12th hole where I caught the foursome ahead of me. The 14th hole, that foursome caught the foursome in front of them and now the group behind me is caught up to me. Standing around in the Texas heat casually chatting got ridiculous. I just stopped playing at the 16th hole and left.

All greens were covered in a blueish wet dye. If you don’t mind it all over everything, you are all good then. Otherwise, everyone is super friendly and the prices are reasonable. The fairways and tee boxes were all good. Still trying to learn the tee box markings with dots vs colors like all others.

Back nine has interesting holes. Greens needed to be mowed but great value and great staff

If you want to pay $100 for a goat track…. Go ahead.

No excuses for how horrible their greens are. Every time I've gone they have been in horrible shape.

Solid course and round. Discounted rates for punched greens, the post Memorial Day rains are helping the greens recover nicely.

I wish they had shower supplies and towels, so we can get ready for work without having to go back to the house

Greens were rough and the price was too high. The pace of play was bad too many people for 7 min starts

The course has gotten better but the price has far outpaced the quality. It’s not a 100 course

The course conditions were below average. Couple of the greens were very patchy, all of them fairly bumpy. Pace of play was brutal, had a 3:30 tee time and only got to finish 16 by 8 when we were told to bring carts in.

In my opinion, it was worth the $55 twilight rate but wouldn’t pay full price

I’m not one for bad reviews but it seems like they’ve given up on this course.

Played on a hot, windy day. Recent reviews noted that the greens were not pristine, and that’s what we found. Staff said they had a freeze last winter. Hopefully, the greens will come back more, because the overall layout is pretty good.

Staff is friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was good. They have a drive-through snack bar at the turn. Course has a grass driving range and an unspectacular short game practice area.

Pace of play was around 4:45 because we waited on the group ahead of us on every hole. Marshall might have been able to a little more to speed them up.

Front nine is pretty open and mostly flat. Back nine is very different. It has more elevation change with some narrower fairways.

If they can get the greens back, it will be a much better experience.

Since having 2 separate knee replacement surgeries in 2024, this has been my most frequented course. I suppose the short distance white tees favor my golf rehab with new legs. Unfortunately, this last round was a bit disappointing. The greens were a bit fuzzy and the grass on the tee boxes was longer than usual. Maybe the maintenance was late due to recent rains, so grace given. Back to the greens ... several have some bad spots where the grass has gone, making puts very unpredictable. Also you can see some weeds present in the grain of the greens. I hope this gets rectified. I like playing this course. Joe, the starter, is a great human being!!!
