Hope you can Draw the ball

If you are a righty and you can draw the ball then this course should be pretty easy for you. This is a beautiful course and it has a lot of scenic holes and trees. Lots of challenging elevation changes and blind tee shots. It can really test you if you are always pressing your luck with a long tee shot. In some cases you are just better off playing a shorter club down the middle or you are in for a long round. Greens are always smooth and fast when I play, but playable. Nothing crazy to think you are playing miniature golf and can't hold the green. Would definitely make the drive out there and give it a play. You won't be disappointed you did.

Hardest course I've ever played

We were running late for our tee time and even though they were very busy, Craig in the proshop was very nice and accomodating about it. We were in town for the Cowboys game and decided to drive out to check this place out. Expect to get some big numbers the first time you play this course.....VERY NARROW and unforgiving if you don't know where to leave the ball. The course was nice and reminded me of "The Falls" in New Ulm, Tx..........I prefer The Falls...more forgiving and they keep it in better shape.

Well worth the trip!

Second time I've played Sugar Tree this year. It's a fabulous course...well worth the hour drive. Greens ran beautifully...fairways in great shape. This is a very challenging course...I do not recommend it for beginners! Not one truly easy hole on the course. Tight, lots of dog legs and elevation changes. I'm a 14-15 handicapper. Made two birdies and still shot a 91! Bring lots of balls, leave your ego in the car and enjoy one of the best courses in North Texas.

Shake The Sugar Tree!!!

A buddy has been telling me to go check this place out for years. Finally made the trek - absolutely worth it. Staff was super nice, as were the locals. Greens are pristine. This is a great place to geat away and have a great round. My one tip buy the $4 yardage book if you have never played it and stay right on the par 5's. Great elevation changes and a lot of strong par 3's.

OVER RATED

I was very excited to make the trip out there to play this course, as it has been rated in the top 10 in DFW for years now. I was HIGHLY disappointed in the place. The tee boxes are like small ant hills, and its hard to find level ground on them, much less GRASS!. The fairways were in food shape as well as the greens (pretty quick), but the bunkers were TERRIBLE. There were branches, trash and the edges were not trimmed. There is a lot of work for that maintenance crew to get done between the falling trees and just stuff everywhere, but I mostly saw the same 5 guys just driving around on carts, not doing a thing. I would only play this again for free or little to no cost. They really need to put some effort into the course conditions, it would be a $60-$80 Green Fee all day if they just took some time to clean it up.

Played mid week with few people present and was one of the fastest rounds, 21/2 hours, i've played this year. great course. excellent valus.

Sugartree is an outstanding golf course that is maintained very well. The greens are smooth and quick. Fairways are well watered allowing the ball to sit up nicely. Picturesque course and great value for the buck.

Course is an Excellent Value

It rained but the course drained well as was a challenge. The signature windmill hole was breath taking and equally as challenging. The greens were excellent. The overall golfing experience was great!

Great Course, Great Views

Wow. This is now my favorite course. This course is very challenging with lots of water, sand traps, rolling fairways and greens. I usually shoot in the 90's but shot a 130 on this course after shooting 52 on the front 9. Lots of doglegs and blind tee shots. The course is in great condition, the greens hold your approach shot and play somewhere between fast and slow. Despite my score I loved this course. The views are great, pace of play is perfect (played on a friday morning), and the staff is great. Played on a hot deal for $25 but even at the usual golfnow rate of $39 this would have been a reasonable deal. The course is a little out of the way in Lipan but only about 45 minutes from where I live in North Fort Worth. I will play this course as much as I can in the future. When I'm able to play in the 90"s on this course I will know that my game is in order.
