Tour 18 Dallas

After a handful of years of disappointing maintenance, 6 buddies and I golfed at Tour 18 on 4/1/23 and were not disappointed. Layout has always been fun but they finally got the greens rolling true and fairways back above average. Tee boxes need to be leveled a little but overall very good. We will be back!

We had a good round. Course in good shape. Staff were great as always.

I would play again but, for the price and what it is supposed to be, was pretty disappointing. Just didn’t seem to be well kept and the greens were pretty slow.

Might be a ride for some, but the course played great, country club fee, not very busy, and except for a couple players, moved very nicely. Nice clientele, and a great track.

Course was in pretty good condition, but not $150 per player’s worth. No GPS , it was a $50-60 course

This course is fun to play and the complimentary sandwich options at the turn were delicious. Course conditions are improving and greens were rolling very nice. If they can get the fairways filled in and growing consistently this will be an absolute gem.

Great staff and fun layout.

Greens were great condition for time of year and recent rain.

I avoided Tout 18 for a solid 4 years based on a poor past experience and the volume of negative reviews of the course. A buddy convinced me that "it's back" and suggested I try again. Although the golf course isn't let 100% (after all, it's still winter), I can definitely see the progress that's been made and am optimistic the team there can get in back into top shape this spring!

Greens - Overall, consistent and in good shape.

Bunkers - 75/25, several have been repaired and are excellent... but a few major ones are still under repair and are ACTIVELY being worked on. So... give it some time... or just stay out of those traps. LOL

Fairways - Generally good but a few holes that definitely need some TLC, precipitation, and warmer temperatures to come back in.

Pace of Play - Not the best. The course would benefit greatly from adding technology to help manage the pace of play on holes where there are blind tee shots. Had a consistent mix of groups waiting excessively for fairways to clear and/or hitting into us because we couldn't be seen and the carts do not have GPS technology.

Scenery - Lacking... it is still winter, but would hope that everything makes a full rebound in the next 45 - 60 days.

The Starter - This dude is 5 stars all day. Great way to kick up the nostalgia and start play on a positive note.

It does look like the course has slightly reduced the rates to take into account the current course conditions so get out and sneak in a round before the rates go back up.

For $75 we had the course almost to ourselves. Liked it a lot. Had some condition issues, but greens were good.

Great fun but greens are so tough. I guess it’s why the courses where these hole are from are PGA sanctioned. Lol

It is a shame they do not maintain this course. It was immaculate when it opened 20 years ago. The bunkers have been under repair for years. There is little to no grass on tee boxes. At least overseed them during the winter. Large areas around greens that are grassless. The staff is friendly and the concept is cool but those two things alone don’t justify the $100 green fee. It’s worth $50-60. Don’t pay more than that unless $ is of no concern or you don’t mind being disappointed.

Fun experience, Bermuda greens in great shape for their dormant status. Some greens are a bit too aggressive with undulations, a bit over done by the designer. Overall enjoyed the experience.

Had a great day at Tour 18. Course was in good shape for being Jan. Staff were great.

Been here a few times over the years. Whoever is the new greenskeeper should be given a medal. Greens are outstanding and this is top place for off campus from our “club”. Fairways are a tad thin in some places, but nothing some spring time weather can’t fix. Was also happy to see real maintenance happening on the bunkers. Staff is awesome. We will be back….

The hreens have healed very well since last summer when they were fungicide dominated and nearly unplayable. I was optimistic when i saw how well the dormant bermuda looked and played. This course is a special place but can he so much more with new construction finished bunker projects on a couple of holes coming. The avid golfer will need a rangefinder here.. Golf cart technology is not found here. And not that it needs to be here either. And with the blind shots and elevation at Tour 18 FM, it is an essential tool for approach shots and an overall better score.
