Roy Kizer Golf Course

About
This is a 36-hole city-owned operation that features one of Austin's best muni tracks, the Roy Kizer Golf Course, which complements the 1970s Jimmy Clay layout.
Austin's old water treatment facility was transformed by Randy Russell, who had more than 80 acres of lakes and marshland at his disposal when he laid out the 200-acre site. Russell's links-style design is flat, burdened by the wind, and loaded with bunkers. The toughest par is No. 11, which rolls 468 yards into the wind and is shamefully listed as a par 4. Take your bogey on No. 11.

This is Andy. He's in sales and is somehow always 'working' when we're playing golf. He can almost never be tagged on a Facebook golf course check-in during a weekday. He's 'working.' So here's proof that he was out with us playing golf yet again. :) Photo submitted by GordonATX on 09/08/2018

Great winter condition Photo submitted by jimpham on 01/07/2017
Great Time
I am fairly new to Golf. This was the best course I've played so far. For the money, most enjoyable course I've been to.
Didnt play
Due to unexpected circumstances. We were not able to play.
Can I get a refund or credit for a future round?
Thanks
Kizer
It was a cold day . My brother and I wer ed teamed up with another twosome . Had a good time
Very forgiving course, easy to score
Course was in good shape overall, on the drier side so everything rolled out a little more. Wide fairways and no trees, with large greens and accessible pin locations it was easier to get near the hole for birdies. Little slow for this kind of course, took 4.5 hours Thursday afternoon
Kizer in December
Still the best muni in Austin. Greens in good shape
Nice layout
I payed a hotdeal price on golfnow so it was totally worth it. The greens could use mowing cause they were slow and normally they are fast greens in that course. Overall great condition, glad to be able to play this course again.
Good alternative to club course
Kizer was in good shape and easily playable. Pace of play could be better but it is a public course with lots of players. Definitely a good test especially with wind blowing.
Great Golf Experience
We spend 2 weeks each year visiting our son in Austin. Every year we come here as a must stop. First the staff inside & Jon on the course were friendly & showed true TX hospitality. The course is scenic, challenging and made it feel like a linx . The fairways & greens were in very good condition. If you took a little time on greens they ran true even with several levels on them. Pace of play was great, 3:42. All I can say is thanks & see you next year.
New Greens are in
New greens were great, course was in great shape, pace was rather slow, but I think that’s due to a really slow large group, not something I typically experience to that extent here. Walked off after 14.
KIZER IS BACK!
After a long awaited recovery, I was relieved to see one of my favorite local courses restored to its former glory. The fairways and greens are looking as good as ever.
