The Golf Club at Texas A&M is a challenging and well-maintained public course. The recent renovation has elevated it to a must-play, with fantastic, fast greens and a great layout. Friendly staff and a wonderful atmosphere make for an excellent experience. Highly recommend!

I have had the opportunity to play this course a number of times over the past month and my opinion has changed. While I was originally underwhelmed, I have started to come around. The staff and check-in/starter experience have been nothing but positive for me (so far I haven't even been asked to share a cart, we had 3 in 3 carts). The course itself is quite interesting. Fairly short but very creative and allows for varying levels of risk taking. The tee boxes need to be leveled, but are generally in line with other muni courses I've played in Austin. The fairways do have some browning and patches but I have to remind myself that is the end of summer and they have taken a beating. Where this course really stands out to me is the greens. The condition of the greens is night and day compared to the rest of the course. The last time I played they were rolling at a 10 (conveniently posted in pro shop) and so far have rolled pure from my experience. I think it is a decent value at $55, and I think if you come into your experience with adjusted expectations it can be a very enjoyable course

It’s in rough shape now. I wish the greens crew and superintendents luck this season they have there work cut out for them. I emailed the assistant pros a week before the tee time and never heard back from either. So a little disappointed in that lack of
communication. The staff inside the club house were nice. IMO The club house is also due for a renovation a lot of water stained tiles in the drop ceiling. Looking forward to my next experience at the golf club at A&M

Great place for weekend golf. Course is wide open so you don’t lose a lot of balls. Wide fairways that are well kept along with smooth rolling greens that are taken care of.

This major university course could be, and SHOULD BE, so much better. It’s an interesting piece of land with lots of potential and nice views of Kyle Field and the TAMU campus, but the condition of the course is marginal. There are lots of brown patches in the fairways, the grass on several greens was going bad, the driving range landing area is an embarrassing dust patch, and the clubhouse is ready for a full reset. It’s a poor value for $70. I really wanted to like the course, both my daughters lived in the dorms next to it so I’ve been excited to try it, but I don’t think I’ll be back until I see some major improvements when I drive by. On the positive side the greens rolled beautifully, and there’s a spacious short game practice area (the short game is key to scoring people). The rough is downright diabolical, far too tough for the vast majority of golfers in my opinion. I do not recommend the course for a high handicapper, you’ll lose sleeves of balls in the deep lettuce.
