This is a pretty wooded course on most holes, which is nice for this area. I find a lot of the Houston courses tend to favor long, open holes for bombing discs, which if that's your thing, cool, but I like the challenge of tighter fairways and shaping shots.

If you're local to the area, and remember 1776, this course has several holes that remind me of that course. There are some fun tunnel shots, a blind dog leg, and a couple of holes that favor lefty/FH shots.

The flow is pretty good overall with such a small amount of land to work with. One fairway does somewhat overlap another, but most don't, while keeping the walk between holes short. I can play a full 18 holes by myself in about an hour, maybe less if I'm really booking.

I've played here several times, and it's always been very well maintained, and only gotten better since the course was installed. There's some brush in the rough that can give you some challenge, but nothing too rough to go in for.

There are two holes, 6, and 7, that I feel are too wooded and don't really provide a realistic shot for a line to the basket. For instance, when I played there last week, I had a great tee shot from 6 that snuck around several of the trees on a line that lead right at the basket, only to catch another tree as it faded back. I couldn't have shaped that shot any better or I would have hit one of the earlier trees. Of every time I've played, I've tried a different line to see if I could get the line right, and this was the best case scenario I've run into so far. Hole 7 is better, I've gotten some good looks for birdie with some shots that snuck through, but from the short tee, you basically just have a wall of trees between you and the basket. You can throw a FH/lefty shot to get around it, but the basket is on the left, so your disc is going to fade away from the basket to get in the clear for a look. It's a shame because with just a little bit of a look through that wall of trees this hole could be really exciting. It's got an elevated basket that already provides a fun challenge for the putt once you get through. It just seems one less tree would make it a doable challenge versus basically a lucky shot to get through.

I really like this course overall, even though I only gave it 3.5 out of 5. If it were closer to me, I'd probably play it every week. I have a pretty busy schedule and don't get a lot of time to play, so playing a short 9 hole course in less than an hour is ideal for me. The wooded nature, even though it's short, is nice to mix challenge with a quick play.

I'm also probably in the minority about not liking the amount of trees on holes 6 and 7. I've heard other people say they really like the challenge of those holes. I love wooded holes personally, I just like them to have at least one line that isn't going to be a lucky shot that can make it to the basket, but to each his own there.

Overall though, if you're looking for a quick play, and you're in the area, I definitely recommend. I wouldn't necessarily travel more than 30 minutes to play it though. There are likely other courses within that distance that will be more rewarding for the drive overall.

Wooded fairways are cleared nicely and feature rough that will punish errant throws but not make your legs bleed, a definite plus for such a new course. A few times where I took a bad kick I had to earn my way out but it wasn't unreasonable.

Nine brand-new Mach 3 baskets and two beautiful cement tees per hole, a short and a long, make for what feels like an 18-hole layout. Longs and shorts differ greatly on most of them.

Gaps are an appropriate challenge for what the course is, plus a few of them are a little more challenging from the long tees. Most skill levels will enjoy this course, whether it's a challenging but not too frustrating time for newer players or an enjoyable casual warmup round for those more experienced. I'm a 920-rated Am Masters player in my upper forties with not much distance but good accuracy and a good short game and the difficulty of this course was right up my alley. I shot a 53 playing the shorts + longs 18-hole layout and left 4 strokes or so out there.

Good mix of directions and shapes and distances.

Good variety of basket placements, some near obstacles that punished getting too aggressive and blowing past the pin. One basket is raised on a manmade mound to provide practice in that situation too, and I liked how it was on a hole with a tricky tee-off. I threw a good forehand and it left me with a tester which created a risk-reward scenario at 30 feet. Yep, I airballed that but then had to make another good putt to save par (and I did).

Water doesn't come into play much, which is in line for the purpose of this course, but at the same time there could be added holes for tournaments and whatnot that would be sweet near a ribbon-like creek.


Nice signage, and I see some small cement pads for future benches as well.

While it leans to the wooded side of the continuum, there was enough open space too to not make it feel completely tightly wooded. I felt like it was a nice balance.

Two warmup baskets at the beginning, and they include trees for practicing putts in and around obstacles.

It's a 9-holer, so if you're looking for a destination course this isn't it, more appropriate as a wonderful local choice for those who need a quick round after work. However, with the long and short layout you can play what feels like a whole 18 too.

If you're looking for a more open course to throw big bombs and don't like woods golf at all, you won't enjoy this as much as I did.

It's a Houston-area course so naturally there isn't a great deal of elevation, but there is the raised basket and one really nice green that features a small little dry creek bed where the pin placement was pleasing to the eye up above it and, gasp, even featured a rollaway to my nephew's errant upshot! Probably not something that happens with too much regularity around here unless a basket is perched near one of those manmade ditches you see everywhere.

This course is in terrific shape for how new it is, and a delightful neighborhood 9-holer. I'd be thrilled to live near something like this. I enjoyed my round here, especially since I enjoy playing wooded golf. You'd be hard pressed to find a better 9-holer. Nice equipment and a nice park too. Just lovely.

Watch for snakes. We encountered a baby copperhead. From what I understand this is fairly common around here. I come from Michigan where winter kills things that harm you.

Shaded; compact but playable; nice variety of left/straight/right turn holes; not too long of holes

Compact layout sometimes have you throwing into other peoples fairways; not too long of holes

Its a nice course. It reminds me of the old 1776 layout combined with a little bit of Old Egypt. Its going to expose your throwing deficiencies even on the shorter holes - at least it did mine.
Nice wok put into this course....thanks to those for getting it up and running!
