Hey guys, what are some of the best public courses that you all have played in texas? I am trying to see what all courses I need to check out. Thanks for the input. No course is off limits, if you played an awesome muni, put it down. Also, if you could put the location, that would be great too. Thanks.

There is a course outside of Glen Rose (SW of Fort Worth) called Squaw Valley Golf Course that is extremely nice for a public course. I was in Fort Worth on business, and one of my co-workers wouldn't let us go home until we went out there to play it. It's a very nice layout, is in very good condition, and is off the beaten path a bit so that it wasn't all that crowded. Being that you're in Austin, it's always fun to go to that muni course on Red River and 38th and try not to hit people waiting for the bus. Oh, my college memories.....

The Tribute in The Colony, Bridlewood in Flower Mound, Castle Hills in Lewisville, Tenison Highlands in Dallas, Texas Star in Euless, and Hawks Creek in Ft Worth are all nice public facilities... These courses keep me busy on the weekends

I will second Twin Lakes in Canton. That is a great course.

Since you are in Austin you should go check out Quicksand at Woodcreek in Wimberley. I was out there this afternoon and the course is in terrific shape. I will be out there again tomorrow. It is a pretty short course, but nice. Plus you get to take a drive through the hill country to get there.

Pine Forest in Bastrop is nice with some terrific views and some challenging holes.

I love all of the Austin muni's. Clay and Kizer are great and a terrific set-up.

Grey Rock (formerly Circle C) is a great course as well. Always in great shape and they have a terrific staff.

Looks like the Rawls course in Lubbock is considered the best public in that area.

Does anyone have an opinion on Houston's Bear Creek golf courses? I was going to move back to Houston in a few months and wanted to live near a golf course and driving range. Their website doesn't have much info on greens fees and range-ball fees.

Here are links to the course website and map/location info:

2011 Goals:
* Improve club-head speed to 90 mph with the driver
* Ensure increased speed does not compromise accuracy
* Prevent overextending on the back-swing (left-arm is bending too much at the top)
* Relax arms initially at address ( too tense)* Play more full rounds (failed from 2010)

      Best Shot of the Week

      By Clemsonfan ·

      Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
