Hole 18's View from Green Photo submitted by PulsarX on 02/10/2018
Sorry course
Greens were in very poor shape. Course layout was really screwed up when they redid the course many years ago. The original course was easlity walkable and well laid out. The new design is wacky and harder to walk. The 9th and 18th holes are ridiculous. Most holes have water in play. I usually play this course once every year or two just to remind myself how bad a course it is. Hard to believe how much the course is played. The area just does not have many good courses. This is not one of them.
Very cheap place to play
The lay out was unique. The course condition was not great however after speaking to some others they said that it's i in the best condition in years and that it has improved vastly. I will continue to play it cause it's very cheap and I need more practice.
So much potential
This course has such a great layout and beautiful views but the course conditions are horrific, the fairways were decent but the greens are in desperate need of attention with even large patches of grass missing.
Greens and Fairways: Poor Condition
I've played this course a number of times over the past 10 years. Judging from the currently poor condition of both the fairways and especially the greens, I'd say that there are serious budget problems and/or personnel issues. I won't be back to this course any time soon.
Sammons
The course was OK, Due to the heavy rains the week prior there was still water in many areas of the course and also the greens were not the best but overall the day on the course was nice!
What tee time?
I was on the tee box 2 minutes before my time about to put the peg in the ground and then a single walked up jumped on box ahead of me, I was on black he was on white...excuse me sir it's my tee time would you care to join...No I'm in a hurry! Nobody plays the blacks thought you was waiting? So reluctantly I let him play on and the next guy "hey you want join" no I play alone! So 2 different singles go off in front of me (in a cart) they both walking. This upset me and the fact that the wind was blowing over 20 mph with gust near 40 was not helping matters... decided to jump ahead to 3 that's when I saw the greens. Just horrible and I do not blame the staff I trust they do everything possible to maintain them. The worst golfers in the world play here no one has ever fixed a ball mark EVER! So disgusted with conditions I left after just 8 holes. Only if they close this course for a couple of months so the greens can heal, will I be back.
Loved The Course
We picked one heck of a day to play. Rain sporadically passed through the area but we were determined to play.
The greens were excellent, even with the wet conditions. The fairways were very playable if not somewhat narrow in spots. The tee boxes were in good shape and many are elevated, presenting a fun experience.
They have not only a good sized practice green but also a chipping area (it even has a bunker to hit from) near the well maintained driving range.
The course doesn't take long to play unless they are busy. Some holes had twosomes and foursomes stacked up like cordwood. Could have been due to rain delays. This course is definitely for the placement shot player. If you have errant shots expect to find the water. There is water on like 14 of the 18 holes. Not a course for the beginner unless you enjoy torturing yourself. Though it is very doable for those who want a challenge.
We took advantage of their dining room before teeing off. Let me say, the food is grade-A and the portions would make a buffet blush. The staff is very friendly and very interactive. If it is your first time, let them know and they will give you all the details you can handle.
I recommend this course highly.
Slow pace of play
Starters and Marshalls do not seem to understand their roles in making the round of golf more enjoyable. Slow play by 5somes is very disappointing especially when followed by 2somes.
Tee boxes are mostly dirt, greens are needing some attention, ball washers present on maybe 1/3 of holes.
Course is walkable and price is fair - but slow rounds make for desire to play elsewhere- lots of water!
Nice greens
Greens were very nice. Very challenging layout. I highly recommend this course .
This course is a hard hat course
Fairways and greens were to close. holes were not marked well. The only way I would ever play this course again is if they furnished hard hats.
Old School - water everywhere
With 13 holes having water in play and as narrow as the course layout can be, this course will challenge your shot making ability.
Many of the water hazards are not visible from the tee - beware, as what looks good from the tee might found the water.
Great course
Sammons is not a long course, but definitely placement golf and a very appealing course. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I would recommend this course to anyone.
Average condition
Course is in average condition. Most tee boxes are in poor condition. Not much grass on tees and very uneven. Staff as usual not very friendly .
Ok for the money
The greens were slow but overall in good shape. Great course in the summertime. Lots of risk reward holes.
First time at course
Greens and fairways were REALLY bad. We spent $14 through Golfnow so, this wasn't too big of a loss. The only way I would go back to play, is to improve my score. Definitely not missing this course.
So So
The first thing the person in the ProShop told me was that there was no difference in price between booking online with Golf Now versus Calling the Course Directly which was not true cause I booked a special rate.
Nice course
Not many places to play central Texas. Nice to know there is a good one! We can come here and relax . . . beautiful course.
Nice course
This is a nice course. Always in good shape and they space people nicely so you can relax and enjoy!

Good to know. I was thinking about checking out this course. Looks like there is no rush to play here.
