Course Reviews

• North Shore Country Club
  "Great Bay Side Holes, and Tough"
  Play this in the wind and you'll find your handicap is a little too low. Northshore is a wonderful course with great bay views on the 4 bayside holes. And Don't miss the gator on hole 12, the cormorants on number 3, or all the other birds during the migratory months. In winter the rye overseed makes Northshore one of the best courses in all of South Texas.

• Knob Hill Golf Course
  "One of the better ones around"
  Nicely maintained, well conditioned course. A little short from the whites, and perhaps a little long from the championship tees for the average golfer. Water comes into play on many holes, as does out of bounds. Greens are medium sized and fairly flat, but several have devilish breaks. Holes seven and eight can make or break your round, and when playing into the wind, the eighteenth is as tough a finishing hole as there is in the area. There has been talk about going private for several years, but it appears as if it will happen sometime in 2004, so if you have the opportunity to play, do it soon!!

• Bartow Golf Course
  "Golfing For Par"
  This Course is set out to have you playing for par rather than birdie. Tricky bunkers, well placed trees, and water make the Bartow Golf Course frustrating at times. Minor elevation changes enhance play as do friendly people. Give it a try.

• Palm Royale Country Club
  "Little Jewel"
  My rating is based against other courses of this size and type. The course was immaculate and the greens quick and true. The entire grounds were gorgeous, well watered with no brown spots at all. A real pleasure to play.
