Texas Woman's University Golf Course

For several years this course had a good staff and good policy and was a great course for the price - operating almost as a non-profit. But in the few years before this course closed something changed in the way the course was managed. Twilight players previously would naturally finish up their rounds as a result of lack of sunlight. But that ended and instead they began to be escorted off the grounds by staff in the evenings. One day a local youth pastor was arrested for putting on the putting green after his round. One gentleman I saw was turned down from a round as early as 3 PM staff citing not enough time left in the day. One time a staff member openly scolded and mocked golfers for coming to play when there was a slight drizzle. If some players came to putt for a bit on a holiday, campus police would rapidly show up. The message became clear. Golfers were no longer particularly welcome, only really tolerated at best. Perhaps a traditionally men's institution such as a golf course, on a women's college of all places, was doomed from inception. Given these attitudes in combination with local political and developer influence it was inevitable to see this course closed. Which is too bad, it once was a really friendly course for 90% of recreational players out there who do not hit the ball as far as a PGA tour pro.

Most greens are small and elevated. Although greens and tee boxes are not in the best of condition, the course offers challenging practice rounds.

For one, the course is in a little better shape than it has been in the past. #8 still needs grass. It’s a little too expensive for the conditions of the course. I’ve played many courses cheaper than TWU in WAY better shape.

I've played this course over 25 years and other than the greens not much has changed. But the greens are in the worse shape ever, almost as if they are trying to drive golfers away? I still like the layout though and will be back in the future!

Played by myself and hit 2 balls per hole since closest group was 2-3 holes behind. I need the practice. Several greens were in bad shape. Pretty open course so you won't lose many balls. Not much water on the course. Played for 12.00 thru Golfnow . I will continue to play these average courses until my game improves. Nice place to play at your own pace.

Overall good round, but there were about 5 greens that were in pretty bad shape (to much sand , high grass and not pressed).

This is likely the worst course I have or will ever play... they've given up on maintenance.... I left after 12 holes.

Fairways are decent, greens are a bit rough. There is no sand but some water. The bottom line is that It's cheap to play here,

This could be a really nice course if they would invest in the greens which are rough around the edges. No. 8 green is almost dirt and minimal grass. The fairways are a challenge in some areas due to the trees that line them. Slow greens. Needs work but could be a nice short course to play if they would just invest in some nice greens and tee boxes.

This course is about to close and they have let the greens go completely-some are bare dirt & others are partial grass/dirt. Or some are tall grass-but not manicured at all. I wanted to play it once more before it closed but will not recommend to anyone.

My wife and I play here on occasion. We always enjoy it.

This course is a historic course, awesome layout and they will be closing it soon . I love this course and recommend it to all.

While being a short course, the small greens, unique layout and pace of play make this a fun and enjoyable track to work on your game. It's interesting enough to make you pay attention and sometimes you'll play solo and be able to play two balls. Yes, the course is not the most meticulously maintained and the greens are very slow, but it's still golf and you can use all your clubs. It's basically a flat track so get a pull cart and walk!

This course is in the best shape I have seen it in the 4 years I have played it (about once per year). The small greens and semi-narrow fairways make you think about each shot like a chess match. I know it is not a very difficult course overall due to the short distances; however, if TWU would invest in it, it could be a great 9 hole or par 3 course. I understand that it will be closing soon, and I'm sad that I won't have a place to take my kids to golf anymore. All other courses are too crowded to allow kids to play and learn the game.

Understand course may be closing in the future so you can tell they are not putting much money into it. Carts are old but worked fine. I booked through Golf Now so got a very good deal.

First time playing here. Course is kept in good shape and pace of play was great for a Saturday (3 hours 20 minutes for a group of 3). Greens are small and could use a little work, but good for the price we paid. A good little course to go practice on.

Liked the layout, friendly staff. Weather turned bad towards the end will definitely go back in the spring.
