WinStar Golf Course - RedBud

I played the Redbud course because the other one was closed. The course is down to dirt on the tee boxes fairways and just before the greens. Its is not worth $100. The staff in both the restaurant and pro shop are fantastic but the course is beat up. I drove over an hour to get there and feel like it was a wasted trip. Hopefully they can fix it by next season but we will see.

Very friendly staff. The fairways and greens were very well maintained. Was paired off with a father and his son in law. They were very nice people. Had a great time.

People were very friendly. It was cart path due to rain the day before. Played with a twosome They were friendly where it made the game more enjoyable. Will definitely return

Both courses at Winstar are still recovering from freeze/drought/green rebuilds. Redbud's greens were very firm although not exceptionally fast. Rolled about 9 but very true. Some areas around the greens are still growing in or are void of bermudagrass. Fairways were mostly good, just a few bare spots. Rough is still pretty penal but rarely in play. Bunkers were in good shape. Redbud layout is mostly the original course at WS - very fun, mostly open, some good strategic shots needed. The weather was perfect - barely any wind (a rarity here) and 80 degrees. The big clubhouse is now open - no more trailer!

Happened to be paired up with two guys from my hometown in Pennsylvania. Pretty cool and they even knew who I was from 30+ years ago! Good group to get paired up with. We played in 4:05 on a Sunday afternoon - not bad.

One thing about WInstar that needs mentioned. The practice facilities. Free range balls. big practice putting green. Chipping/pitching greens. You could easily spend an hour or two prepping your game. Since this is a bit of a destination golf course, go early and use the outstanding practice facilities.

Fun day, I'll be back to play in the wind and hopefully a little more grass around the greens.

This course took a beating during the freeze a few years ago and just isn’t back to where it needs to be. Course layout and facilities are good but there was very little grass in the fairways and around the greens. The did have to replace the greens and they look and roll okay but they are very firm and impossible to hit the green with any iron and keep it in from 100+ yards. Maybe in 2-3 months it will be better but it is not worth $80-90 to play. Based on current conditions I would say $40-50 is acceptable.

It was a week of bad weather, but played in the mud anyway, this is the best place to play in the winter because they take such good care of the coarse.

First let me say my wife and I usually love playing at Winstar. We usually get one of the first tee times off on. Saturday. Today we teed off at 11:54. Course was literally saturated with water. Ever shot, including tee boxes would have been considered casual water in a tournament. I am a 37 yr HS golf coach and have never seen a course open in such conditions. It was a swamp. We quit after 14 tired of waiting 15 minutes to hit each shot in swamp conditions.

We love playing here so we will be back, but never again in the afternoon on. Saturday and definitely not 2 days after a rain. They should give out rain checks for that mess today.

Open course and long holes for those who enjoy the big stick.Greens though on the slower side were a bit on hard side so difficult to spin the ball.Overrally we enjoyed ourselves in a windy chilly environment..
