Rosebud Golf Course

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.

Just go play it!

Go play it you won't regret it. You will have a hard time finding a course of this quality under $100. Showed up early and the started let me tee off early (solo). I played through two groups but its wasn't because the play was slow, only because I was solo. Only 4 stars because some tee boxes and fairways have bad spots from the winter, also one green was in pretty bad shape. Don't let that stop you though get out there and play it. It's a great track.

Read the whole review

The Scissortail course is pretty beat up. Fairway grass nearly non-existent. Two greens had less than 20% grass. The entire course is and will be Cart Path Only for the foreseeable future. Pace was very slow due to the CPO rules. Bunkers were in good shape and 16 of the greens were pretty good too. Due to CPO and conditions, I did receive a significant discount. It made it worth the drive. Rumor has it they may close the Scissortail for a bit so it can recover. Staff was very friendly as always, the practice facilities still a great experience, and we tried the new restaurant this time. I'll be back to play Redbud again soon but I'll hope that Scissortail recovers for the fall.

Update on conditions

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.

Still needs help

First time I have played since the big freeze. The course still has not recovered from the freeze from 2 years ago.. the greens were in good shape only a few bare spots. This is always a good course can’t wait till the course has fully recovered.

I suggest to wait to recovered more

Golf Pass Winstar Course

If it wasn't cart path only, it would have been better. Course needs work on greens and fairways too many dry patches .

Excellent GC and staff

Just finished a weekend golf event with a bunch of guys. The Scissortail Course was a real gem of a layout. Very pretty holes and challenging. It was in good shape. A few holes still had some rough areas and one green suffered from freeze damage, but overall it was very playable. Excellent practice area. Choose your tees wisely and you will enjoy your round. Golf staff and F&B staff are all very friendly. I'd definitely return.

Recommend but Not Now

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.

Price is worth it

Greens were pretty difficult but well kept up. Fairways needed some TLC- crunchy grass and dirt.

Always good

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.

6 hrs to play 14 holes...

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.
