Meadowbrook Municipal Golf Course

About
Eight years before he built Colonial Country Club, John Bredemus came to Fort Worth to build Meadowbrook Municipal Golf Course. The city bought the facility years later and brought Ralph Plummer in for renovations in 1962, when the creation of dams formed five new lakes and improved the irrigation system. No. 5 should probably be a par 5 for most hackers -- it plays 475 yards with water on the left of the dogleg, trees are on the right, and the approach must carry a creek. Don't worry about a bogey on this one. The 16th is another long par 4 that features an approach over water to the green. The two best birdie opportunities are nos. 7 and 14, both short par 4s that should leave you with only a short iron into the green.

Fun course
This course is fun to play alone or with a group. The price isn't bad if you catch a deal. Everyone is friendly, no rushing people and letting you play through without any grief. Only ding is that it could use a driving range but besides that one of my favorite courses to play around ftw.
A little dry
Fairways and tees a little dry, obviously Bc we haven’t seen a good rain in weeks. Greens are in very good shape. The pace was a grind. Two walkers in a foursome ahead of us. The staff should consider banning walkers on the weekends to maintain an acceptable pace. Course certainly enjoyable. I’ve played it a lot and I’ll be back.
Fun Course and Great Value
The course has improved dramatically since the freeze. Good overall conditionss with some very fun holes. Great bones and looking forward to the big renovation.
No drink cart was ever seen and no water stations. Not a good thing on a hot day
Interesting but short golf course
Greens recently aerated. Will be in great condition here in about a week.
Fun Course
Meadowbrook's always a fun, interesting course to play. It's in great condition for the price point and has some very unique holes (considerable elevation changes, tight fairways, risk-reward opportunities) that place a real premium on club selection. The greens roll true, and the fairways and tees are generally in good shape. I'm not a huge fan of some of the uneven fairways, but they're generally quite playable. It's a tight little course that requires you to keep it in play, but it's not overly punitive by any means. It packs a punch for its length and can provide a decent test for more advanced golfers. Pace of play could be improved with a marshal, but given this is a value-priced muni, you can't expect too much ha. Also, I wish they had a driving range, but given the tight quarters on which this course was built, I don't believe that adding one would be feasible. Overall, it's a fun, playable course that I recommend giving a shot!
Good local course
Good course in great condition. Tough Sunday pin placements, but fair.
