Hey all,

I got on this forum like less than a week ago, and I already know I am where I should be on the 'net.

Anyhoo, I am going to Austin TX, (Round Rock to be specific) to do some consulting work for a few weeks and was wondering if anyone knew of the cheap/good golf venues to play at least four or five times a week... Oh, and I broke my TaylorMade R5 over the barbecue today with not even a swing rep, but a wrist excercise rep, and I killed that poor club after owning it a week from new....cry me a river. I just had to get that in after suffering over my dead club...and its true, God I can be a dumbass...

Thanks!

If in Round Rock, then best place around there is Avery Ranch. It is off Parmer Rd. between Mopac and 620. Excellent course and excellent value. I live in S. Austin, but this is the only course I'd venture that far north for.

thehacker,

If you have a car and are willing to drive about 45 mintues in traffic, I'd highly suggest you book a tee time at The Bandit in San Marcos. It's one of the most fun courses in the state. It's always in great shape, and it's a bargain at $50.

In Round Rock, Avery Ranch is your best bet as jrhodes mentioned.

    • Mostly pull cuts to slices. Some random pull draw/hooks pending of I hit the toe. 
    • What's the rest of that story? Where was the ball going?
    • The criticisms are starting already 🤣 U.S. Open pro criticizes Shinnecock green conditions: 'Bumpy' After playing his first practice round at the 2026 U.S. Open, Michael Kim offered a less-than-glowing review of Shinnecock's "bumpy" greens.   The sand, I don't care about that. If the greens didn't come back as well for latest aerification, that would be a bit of a blunder on Shinnecock I think.   
    • Well, if your frame of reference spins twice during the swing, then Bryson's ab/adduction is more like 780 degrees so there! (Yes I'm being silly, but not sure it's any sillier than what your pal Andy is doing...)
    • Update: Brandon Sorsby has decided to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft. He will not play for Texas Tech in the upcoming season.  From my perspective, I think he did the right thing. I hope he gets the correct help for his gambling addiction. I say the right thing, because I would be worried that the stress from all of this now and throughout the entire year would not be beneficial towards his mental health.  If an NFL team picks him up, then there really isn't any pressure for him to play immediately. He can work on himself and his game for the NFL.  From Texas Tech,  "Texas Tech will continue to provide the support and recovery resources Brendan requires on this journey. Furthermore, Texas Tech will not seek return of any amounts already paid to Brendan through his NIL agreements with the University," Campbell wrote. "We wish our best to Brendan, and we offer our prayers to him and his family as he chases his dreams at the next level. This has been an unbelievably painful experience for us all, but I know that his true, underlying character and lessons learned through this experience will ultimately bring him great success on the field of play and in life." Which, I also the right thing to do.
