Rating 73.8

Carlton Gipson designed the Golf Club At Cinco Ranch in the early 1990s. It's a long golf course that features an ocean of water impacting play on 16 of 18 holes. For the most part, the holes are straight and open, with minimal trees framing the paths to the greens. The greens are unique because of the unusually shaped bunkers that create very different short game challenges from what one normally finds. One of the best holes is no. 4, a 557-yard par 5 that features an approach shot over water into an elevated green. In addition to the water, the green is fronted by a bunker that is at least 10 feet below the hole. This requires a phenomenal, blind bunker shot for an up-and-down.

Course is in very good condition

Greens were a little slow but it is understood due to high temps and latest round of rain

Needed more wind

When the heat index hits 108, us old timers need about 15 mph. The winds were light and I had to move up to the red tees by the 13th. Greens were crunchy but fast and smooth. I could have used more roll on the fairways but I was pretty tapped out despite hydration up the ying yang.

Pretty good overall

Played here many times in the past. Course is in overall good condition considering the drought and heat we’ve been having. Greens look good but are inconsistent speed wise with many of them being extremely slow. Have a downhill putt stop 5’ short, get the speed right the next 3 holes and then roll another downhill putt 8’ past. Facility needs new carts. Many seats missing chunks, we had to exchange 2 carts due to them shutting down completely and then one with hardly any brakes at all.

Good course bad management

Good course being ran by a confused and rude starter who was on a power trip. Not the right person to work as starter!

Terrible Twilight Experience

There’s room for pace of play - players often played multiple balls which slowed down the pace!

Rain delay

Course was deserted. I asked the starter if it was due to the rain that had been forecast. He said he’d believe it when he sees it. I hear you I told him. He said it was more likely due to the 100 degrees forecast. Turned out…there was an hour rain delay. That all said, by the time I got to the last hole, the course had dried completely and I got some good roll on the fairway. Drainage is really good.
