Type Public
Par 72
Length 6835 yards
Slope 133
Rating 73.4

Tangle Ridge Golf Club's location near Joe Pool Lake is favorable because of the elevation changes that spice up this well maintained public course. The course offers some outstanding holes, highlighted by impressive bentgrass greens that putt true. In addition to the elevation changes, Jeff Brauer's design features generous fairways lined by thick brush and huge trees. Two holes grab your attention on the front side. The opener goes 469 yards and might be the most difficult on the golf course. While there aren't too many hazards, bunkers protect the fairway and green, and the thick rough lining the fairway makes it a difficult long approach if you miss the smooth stuff off the tee. Tangle Ridge Golf Club's eighth hole is considered the signature: a 575-yarder that rolls downhill off the tee to a creek that cuts the fairway at 300 yards out. The approach on no. 8 must carry the creek to an elevated green protected by two massive mounds.

Reasonable cost

A little slow play - but expected being public.

First Time Playing

Good course, long round

I really enjoyed this course. Challenging but fair. Nice carts and friendly staff. Where it went downhill for me was course management - one group ruined pace of play for everyone. Had 3 groups stacked on hole 7 and despite calls from individuals from each group to the pro shop asking for a Marshall to come out and handle the situation, didn’t see a Marshall the entire round until the 18th hole where they casually approached us and had the gall to say “well you’re already on 18” and even then a member wanted them to go say something to the group that held everyone up all day with zero regard for pace and the Marshall drive off with zero urgency and ultimately just drive by the group saying nothing. That being said I’d play here again just not on a weekend, and next time I’ll take matters into my own hands knowing the course won’t do anything about it :)

Great layout and fun course

I have seen in better shape, they seem to be a little bit dry, but overall still fun. Staff is always a blast, especially the counter guys.

Still Great!

Play here every few months, and the hour drive is always worth it. Great staff, beautiful course, summer or fall time. Greens always look great. Always in my rotation of DFW Courses.

Friday Golf with a Friend

Man, it seems like it’s been several days of rain so when it cleared out for a day, had to take advantage of it. 12:50 tee time so it was plenty hot, but the lady in the kitchen was very kind and loaded us some beverages into a couple of ice bags. Mandy, the young lady driving the on-course bev cart was great. Always arrived at just the right time. The course was probably playing slow due to 90 rule on most holes, but understandable. I can’t go without mentioning the young man, Cole, who was cleaning the carts when I delivered it to the back of the barn. He could see I was exhausted and offered to take me to my car. Thanks Cole!!
