Texas Rangers Golf Club

I have played Chester Ditto a lot and for the money it's not a bad value. The course layout is nice and challenging. I booked a tee time yesterday through golf now as I often do and during my round it started to down pour with thunder and lightening, I was completely soak and wet. I went to the club house to get a rain check for my round due to the fact that I only had a couple holes in and my clothes were all wet which left me very uncomfortable. Because I booked through golf now they said they were unable to give me a rain check although it's not the first time this has happened to me here and they have done it for me before but all of a sudden it's now an issue. The Manager advised me to contact Golf Now in a patronizing manner stating how honest a specific employee was and when Golf Now contacts the course to ask if the course was closed, he would say no, and invited me to stick around and wait for the weather to change. This could of perhaps been an option if I wasn't wearing a few extra pounds of rain water. I would of thought me being a loyal customer to the course spending a lot of money on golf and merchandise. The golf spikes I had on along with Chester Ditto logo polo I purchased at the course, and several other purchases throughout the years. I do not appreciate being spoken to in that manner nor do I think in this specific situation did the staff put me first and be sympathetic to the situation. It wouldn't of cost them any money to give a rain check, instead they just lost a loyal customer. I will not be returning to the course for a very long time if at all Lake Arlington has a good layout as well and their greens are significantly better.

The fairways were in great shape with the exception of a few muddy spots where either lawn mowers or golf carts had done some damage. The pace of play was good during the week and we didn't have to wait around.

I was really disappointed in the greens on almost every hole. They were very bumpy due to lack of care and some looked like they hadn't been properly mowed in a while. On one of the par 3 holes the green is basically nothing but sand with patches of grass. It was horrible.

I probably wouldn't return to play at this course.

I am a high handicapper so I guess every course is somewhat challenging at this point in my golf career, but "Chester" as I call it is even more so. The front 9 is bearable with some wide open fairways but the back 9 has lots and lots and lots of trees with steep valleys between narrow fairways and if you hook or slice off the fairway just pitch it back into the fairway or it will sound like a ping pong game trying to get your ball out of the trees.

I once lived nearby and played this course 2-3 times a week when first opened. I moved several years ago and found other, more convenient venues. This was the first time I revisited in 10+ yrs. The layout is not too bad, a mix of wide open and tight fairways, ample sized greens. However, the course still suffers from hard-pan fairways and HORRIBLE greens conditions. Course desperately needs attention. Believe the City plans major, multi-million dollar renovation to improve conditions - hopefully, most of the attention to the course and not just clubhouse and parking lot. Played 9 holes for $26, wouldn't spend any more to play 18 here, sorry Ditto.

It's a little tough on the amateur, but very well worth the experience. Very nice twilight rate. You won't be disappointed with this course.

For reference, I am not a very skilled player and this was only my second time going to a course with a tee time instead of walking up.

It was a very enjoyable round overall. Open enough in many holes to allow room for error but some holes are narrower with trees that make you choose up and over or punch it through. The hills give elevation changes that put additional challenges on where you place it on the fairway.

I never felt rushed by the group behind us even though we fell behind the group in front of us some. 4.5 hrs was longer than I expected though.

I thought the fairways were cut well and the rough was thick enough to not allow much bounce and roll, but thin enough to usually end up with a good lie and not buried in tangled weeds.

It sucks that the 6th green was in deplorable condition because it is a great picture hole shooting over the creek. Squares of green in the middle of large patches of sand. Putting on it was a waste of time. I didn't feel like any of the other greens were too horrible nor were they PGA tour ready. They were very serviceable and rolled well except for 6.

It was pretty busy as it was the Friday before the 4th and a lot of people had it off. I would have liked to have seen a course marshall once, at least just strolling by on a cart so we would have known they were there. Even though tee times were 8 minutes apart, it still did not feel rushed.

Definitely will be playing there again soon.

This course has amazing potential. The greens were like putting on a fairway, a bad fairway. Great setup though and im sure a long time ago, or if there was a junior tournament theyd change things but if you are looking for a good challenge course witj EVERYTHING dont bother

Nice little course for the price. It's in excellent shape given all the rain. The only issue is the green on the par 3 6th hole. Nice elevation changes. Some good open holes to just open up and bomb it. Cheap after 5 and there's plenty of trees for shade. Stay hydrated, grab a cigar and relax for a pleasant round.

So many people walking. I played through 3 different 2-somes.

I've played this course before. I did notice some of the greens were damaged due to rainy weather days in May and June. The fairways were great. It was a good round of golf!

Fairways are the best I have played on since moving to Texas in 2011 as I have played all over. Greens however have some damage and were very slow. Will play again as greens should improve over next few weeks to couple months.

Only one issue, a twosome kept playing up on us even after the marshal asked them not to hit into us.

Fairways were good. Greens were horrible. Considering all the water that we have gotten, overall of the course was good.
Would consider going somewhere else for a few weeks to allow the greens to recover from all the water damage.

It had rained a lot the night before and the course was actually pretty dry considering the amount of rain. The greens could be a lot smoother but overall the course was good. Especially for 15 bucks, which is what I got on the hot deal. The staff was awesome!!!! I'll definitely play there again for a good discount, probably wouldn't pay full price though.

Everything was great, except for the greens. They had obviously been aerated recently, but also had several bald spots on them. Hopefully they will be grown in soon with all of this nice rain!

All the rain we've had seems to have helped the course, but it also meant cart path only. The greens are still in need of work, but other than that it was a enjoyable round of golf.

To the crew who is responsible for keeping the greens at Ditto at least somewhat playable ---- CMON GUYS , SERIOUSLY ??? REALLY ???

Considering the sunny weather following significant rain we expected far better green conditions. Although the greens had been aerated recently there seemed to be an abundance of sand on the green. They really need some work to even get to average. Really ruined the golf round in my eyes.

Ditto is a fun layout and the fairwAys are in good shape, The greens however need a lot of work.
The ball pretty much bounced the entire way to the cup on all but 2 greens.
Staff is extremely nice and food is good.
I would recommend this course to the beginner

Course is fairly challenging but the greens are in bad condition. I will not go back for a while.

The speed of play was very rushed. They told us they over booked the tee times and had a tournament starring in 4 hours. The group behind us was riding us all day and we were forced to go the same with the group in front. The whole felt like we were just trying to get through the round instead of enjoying it. The course itself was enjoyable but I'll never play here again.
