reviewer: Scott from Athens

UGA isnt a just a great place to play because of the course, it has a great atmosphere and experience. just knowing that your fellow UGA fans play this course gives you a good feeling. The water holes on the back nine are especially cool. I would recommend getting a cart since its pretty hilly. GO dogs!

UGA course, Jun 15, 2005

reviewer: John Bonham a.ka the german killer bee from Athens, GA USA

The University of Georgia golf course is very fun to play. The prices are not bad. You pay $13.25 to walk 9 and if you fell like playing another 9, it's only an extra 5 bucks. The greens are very nice as are the fairways. Their signature holes are 12 and 13. 12 is a beautiful par 5 that only long golfers can reach in 2. Shorter golfers lay up before hitting onto a penisular green. 13 is another beautiful over the water par 3. If you don't enjoy playing alone, go anyway because the staff is kind and usually pairs you up with other singles. This course is worth the cash.

"Upscale heading Downscale"
This course has so much potential. As it stands it is still one of the best courses in Houston for one thing and one thing only: Greens. It is just unfortunate that it has changed management hands several times in the last few years. In the process, each regime has focused on different things. Mostly cutting back on what the previous management did. No overseeding fairways in winter, Sand bunkers that qualify as gumbo bunkers, No restrooms on course, carts that badly need replacement. To compete with area course price points, they have dropped their average rates. What this means is more course play with less revenue. Couple this with the fact that there is less maintenance staff and no one fills in divots. Looks like a bombing campaign afterphoto on some fairways. The claim to fame is "Best greens in Houston". While this may still be true, the overall package is declining. I am concerned that even the greens may suffer as a consequence of the extra play and reduced maintenance. They used to put balls out on the range, but no more. They have some funky bag system where you lug these large red bags to the range with you. It could be so much better. Aesthetics are an afterthought. Actually, no one is thinking of aesthetics at all. I think they just keep thinking they can coast on the fumes of the reputation of their greens. Their slogan when the club opened 6 years ago was "Country Club for a day". An updated version would be more like "Mcgolf with your redneck buddies for a day".

Glen Garden Golf & Country Club
"History"
Glen Garden is a great place for Golfers of all ages. Playing on the course, it is easy to see how it produced such greats as Hogan and Nelson. They have the classic postage stamp greens. You must be accurate with your approach shot or you will miss the green. It is a great course for beginners as there are relatively few holes where a bad shot will lose your ball. The pace of play is very relaxed and the course staff are over the top friendly. The only down side to Glen Garden is that when it was built it was out in the country (1912?). In the 1950's Fort Worth grew and houses went up all around the course. Unfortunately these houses we small wooden houses and over the years it has become the bad side of town. There have been huge efforts by the local population over the last ten years to clean things up but it will take time. I highly recommend a visit to Glen Garden for any golfer. If you have an interest in history you will find it fantastic to consider you are walking on holy grounds.

Oakdale Country Club
"Wow........"
I have a membership at Oakdale and let me tell you, it's worth it. The courses rolling hills and steep inclines make it a tough challenge. The bunkers and the water hazards are also huge barriers to overcome on this course. You can't beat the price either. My membership paid for itself in a matter of weeks and after that I was practically playing for free. I strongly advise anyone that wants an enjoyable round of golf to check out Oakdale Country Club.

"Great experince"
This was one of the most enjoyable courses I have played. Greens were redone over a year ago and provide a real but fair challenge. Presented with many different shots, Excellent!
