Been struggling to hit the driver (low duck hooks, push slices, etc), but irons and short game are decent.

I do have a slight open stance/stack stilt type of swing, and that could by why my woods are suffering. However my monkey brain can’t mentally comprehend the bigger clubhead and the ball on the tee lol.

I’m in the Stafford/Sugarland area until next month and then I’ll be living in the willowbrook area. Kinda open to any suggestions for coaches and tips. Thanks!

28M, member of Clubs of Kingwood. Honestly, title says it all. I consistently shoot in the 90s and not opposed to trading CC rounds. Hope to meet some of yall!

I want to create a league that is family friendly for all golfers. I created an interest form, please fill out the Google Docs form if this interests you!

Hey guys I’m a member at TPC Houston in Sugar Land. I’m looking to play other Country Clubs I would love to trade rounds. I also have Access to Shadow Hawk and River bend. I really want to play woodlands CC and Braeburn’s but am up to play any CC. Let me know thanks

Moving back to Houston from Denver and dreading it for a bunch of reasons, but a big one is golf. The courses are nice and the weather is great so I’m usually walking 9 in the evening for twightlight. I have 4 nice public courses within 10-15 minutes of me and can usually walk on for twighlight for $25 and get in 9-10 a couple nights a week. On the weekend I have about public courses within 10 miles of me that aren’t impossible to get on and all have driving ranges and short game areas if I only have time to practice. In September I’m moving to bridgeland and looking around it looks like most of the closest options are private. When I lived in Houston previously I didn’t golf but lived close to memorial park. What are my realistic options for twighlight during the week? I have a young child so it’s really hard for me to get out on the weekend. Are there at least some practice options close by? From what I can tell the closest public option looks like Jersey Meadows and online it doesn’t look great and I’ve seen stuff about Marshalls kicking people off during twighlight with plenty of daylight left.

Tl;dr what are my best public options near Bridgeland?

3 long time friends looking for 4th. All mid 30s, shoot in the 80s-90s. Not good golfers, but at least we're getting away from our families, right? Must be OK with rap or Chinese opera on the speaker.

Went there at 7 and no one was hitting. Was the range closed?

Hello. I’m sorry to bother yall with a random question but new to Houston and curious what the general consensus is on the Woodlands CC. Good track? Too Covidian? Just right? Any and all opinions welcomed. Just trying to get a general sense. I appreciate your time and help. Thank you

Played a round today at a public course just outside greater Houston area. Some holes are side by side so a ball coming into your fairway is not uncommon and most people are good about yelling if needed. I was on a par 4, hit an approach shot that went further left than I intended, took a bounce, was in the rough in between the 2 fairways. I saw it bounce and had a vague idea of where it landed and drove the cart up to it after my playing partner hit. Ball was gone. Group on the other fairways asked what kind of ball I was looking for, I said a lime green/yellow AVX with my initials and a purple dot, they said it was 10 yards further. Spent 3 minutes walking around and decided to drop just for someone for the group to run over as I’m hitting my drop and say “oh man I’m sorry I picked up your ball. I know you said yellow but I didn’t know it was this yellow one”. Not the first time this has happened at the courses in Houston as I play Hermann a lot and it happens and it’s frustrating every time. Solution is obviously to keep it in my fairway but being 10 yards off isn’t egregious. It never something that derails a round but certainly throws momentum for a hole or 2.

Houston National is so hard for me to play. I don’t know if it’s the lack of trees or what but I have never been able to play a decent round there in my life. Same goes with both courses at Wildcat.

The course I have played the best my entire life is Cypresswood and Augusta Pines. Those two courses just do it for me. I don’t know why. I am no scratch golfer but playing there always helps my handicap. Same with Greatwood golf course.

What courses in the area hurt your game or help it the most?

I’ll be in Houston this November and want to play a round or two with my brother. He just started golfing this year and is taking lessons. He’s also aiming to have played a few rounds by the time I visit him.

I’ve heard of Memorial Park, but it’s hard to tell which courses are actually beginner-friendly especially since I’m not from Houston.

I’ll even take courses to avoid!

What are some courses in south Houston I should play I’ve been taking lessons for a few months but haven’t hit a actual course

Thinking about starting a West Houston Family Golf network/league that has social events and fun golf game competitions. Parent + child teams. Family + golf + community. Fun first, competition second. Kids 4-12. If interested, comment ‘GOLF’ and I’ll send you a message or just message me directly 😎😃⛳️

Cypress, Katy, sugar land, Richmond/Rosenberg, Fulshear and Brookshire

Got a Father’s Day round planned for the weekend, so I did a quick 4 holes at my club, and let me tell you…it was HELL.

The fairways were STEAMING and the ground was mushy AS F***

Idk what WE did to deserve having the golf gods destroy Houston this week, but I need it to stop raining for the rest of the week!

Interested in signing up for the membership at Northgate and utilizing the joint membership with Walden. Located in The Woodlands so Northgate is 25 minutes away and Walden is 35.

Any members at either club have any specific things they like or dislike about either club?

Honestly, that’s kind of it. I made a post about a month ago asking people their thoughts on clubs in the Houston area, but I just pulled the trigger and I’m super excited to get out.

Any members or former patrons that can tell me what to expect or give any tips?

I’m sorry to bother you guys with this but I’m moving to Houston soon and want to join a quality club. I’ve toured Champions and love the history. I’ve also checked it the Woodlands club that used to host the Houston open and now the Champions Tour event. I don’t mind driving 45 min for a quality track but wanted to get the experts opinion on here. My GHIN is 3.5. I don’t need a pool or gym. I just want solid golf at a club that takes pride in what they do and the condition of the course. I’d really appreciate anyone’s thoughts. Thank you for your time

If you're ever stuck refreshing booking sites trying to grab a weekend tee time around Houston, I built something that might help: Birdie Alerts (birdiealerts.com) - we cover courses all around the US but here is how to get to straight to Houston courses:

https://www.birdiealerts.com/houston

You can search all available tee times for every public course around Houston and use the 'book' link to go directly to the booking page for any course you want to book. Also the best part is if your search doesnt show any currently available tee times - you can set a free alert that will notify you if there are any cancellations, which happen way more often than you'd think. It's completely free, no app to download, no account to create.

Let me know what you think — happy to answer questions or add courses people want covered.
