Under new owners Tom Cusick and George Strait (yep, THAT George Strait), it's fair to say Tapatio Springs is making a comeback from years of obvious neglect, compounded by the drought. Most greens (and more than a few fairways) on the Lakes 9 and Valley 9 are pretty disappointing, but if their work on the clubhouse (and from what I hear, the resort) is an indication of their commitment to improvement, you can expect the course to come around quite well. Despite this course's general condition for now, I would recommend it. Since it's playing largely like a muny, it's priced pretty much the same. Check online for deals; there are plenty to be had. The Ridge 9 is Hill Country challenging, but not too intimidating, as long as you know which tees you should play (I'd say stick to the whites unless you're a solid single-digit handicapper). The greens are generally in better condition on the Ridge 9.

Would travel: 60-120 Miles
Bottom line: I would play again
