Fields Ranch Golf - The Swing

A fun course for locals to come to for a date night. I felt the course wasn't exactly designed in a great fashion as a lot of the tee boxes are within a few yards of the previous green and there are a lot of entry level golfers playing this course with balls going everywhere. The pace of play was insanely slow as there were 2-3 groups on every hole. The casamigos tequila truck is a fun stop on the course but a $18 premade cup of mezcal seemed a touch excessive. Overall I felt they could've made better use of the land and done a bit better with the overall layout.

Enthusiasm around short courses has been one of the most encouraging recent developments in golf, and while The Swing doesn’t necessarily break new ground, it ably miniaturizes the experience found at PGA Frisco’s big courses.

It’s maintained to a similar standard as its siblings, but its sub-90-minute playtime helps make the experience feel breezy. So, too, do the milder evening temperatures in which it can be enjoyed, thanks to its forest of floodlights. Like most courses of its ilk, it’s best enjoyed with one or two wedges, a putter and a beverage.
