Harvey Penick Golf Campus

Played for the first time at Harvey Penick and was not impressed. The greens where being aerated but it seemed that they were being aerated by using rebar. Made 3 foot putts that are makeable on most courses extremely difficult and sinking putts is what matters when the course is basically a par 3 course for the exception of the three par 4 holes. Also there were some water jugs on the course that were not refilled and it was a extremely hot and humid day. Overall the course needs a lot of work but it has potential to be a good short game course.

Greens are in very bad shape and the rest of the course looks like it needs maintnance!!

This was my first time playing HP and I found the staff friendly but the course confusing with multiple flags (4+ flags on some holes) on the fairway and around the green. Due to no course layout available, and the multiple flags it was often difficult determining which flag was the actual hole.

It had just rained and the cart paths were more of a mud path..

The greens were awful, very hard and spotty grass coverage.

I liked the overall course layout and will wait until the course is repaired and in better condition before playing it again.

Great practice course. Really enjoy the practice facilities.
Greens need a lot of work. Aerator holes on greens way to large.

This is a challenging layout in great surroundings. Always enjoy playing. Only problem, the greens had been punched one week earlier and were basically unputtable. This will improve in time.

This was the first 9 hole course I have played and I missed having a par 5, but I had a really nice experience. It was a peaceful environment and very friendly staff. Most of the cart paths are gravel/dirt, so if you were trying to impress a client, the course may not offer the accommodations to impress, but if you want a relaxing round of golf with a laid back atmosphere, this course will definitely fit the bill.

I really enjoyed playing here for the first time. The layout of the course is great especially with all the trees and creeks everywhere on the course. You have to love playing par 3 holes to enjoy your experience, and the only negative thing I can say is that their greens are not the greatest. I'll defiantly play here again and again!

The course is short and good for beginners. The greens are not that great.

The course was in pretty bad shape compared to other courses in the area. I know with the floods that some of it is to be expected. For the price though it is a good course to get in a quick 9 after work.

This is good to practice your chip shot, but not much else. It is a great value but it's not like playing a real course. Hole 1 is the only time you can use your driver. There are two other par 4 holes, but there is a creek on both that forces you to lay up. Greens are pretty rough too.

Overall this course is great for those players on a budget who are looking for a challenge. The fairways are fairly narrow but the greens need a lot more caring. Even though I hit an 80ft putt for birdie, the greens made putting darn right impossible because they were not smooth at all and had little patches of grass to slow your shot down when you know it should have gone in with ease.
In the current conditions I would not pay full price, but If I am anxious to play and catch a great deal i would play this course again.

I really like this course, except for the greens which I think need some work. If these were good, it would be my favorite course in Austin area. They are too rough and bumpy, with a lot of roots and dirt showing. Please H.P. make those better and I'll be there once a week :)

Good course for a quick round.
Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Greens need lots of work, fairways are ok. Enough info already.

large well manicured greens. Fairways in great condition. Good practice facility. 4 tee boxex on each hole. 6 par 3's and 3 par 4's. Play 9 twice

I gave a 5 star rating. will continue to take advantage of great deal.

only had time for nine hole. great place to practice short irons. greens were slower than i expected. friendly staff and good pace of play. i recomend.

I signed on with this course because of the free practice balls before tee off. They told me that they have told you that I would have to pay for the balls so I started hole #1 without my normal warm up and it reflected in my scorecard.

The Penick GC offers a nice 9-hole getaway for 90 minutes or so. The six Par 3 holes are challenging; lots of undulating greens. The three Par 4 holes are well-designed; two require laying up before Walnut Creek.

I play the course about once a month. For any golfer whether you're a beginner or a scratch player, I strongly recommend playing HPGC right now! I am more than impressed with the maintenance quality going on over there at this time! The fairways are groomed well, looking more green than I've ever seen! The putting greens are fantastic!!! Once again, FANTASTIC!!! Seriously, I couldn't believe how consistent all nine holes played on the greens. Here's how good it is at HPGC right now. Even the few bunkers they have were groomed like a top tier course. What is going on at HPGC? I don't know what has gotten into their staff, but keep up the great work! I look forward to playing it next week! The best 9 hole track in Austin right now is HPGC!!! This review is no lie. Get out there soon golfers.
