$46 (cart included), played on Sunday, September 2008 at noon
If you are a Garland resident (as I am) you can get a resident
discount card (10 rds/$180) usable any day of the week. This makes
it a excellent course for the money. Non-residents can buy what they
call a loyalty card (10 rds/$220) which is still a very good deal.
Those do not include carts ($13) which do have gps. Paying retail
the course is still very nice but the quality/$$ ratio drops off a
lot. These 3 nines will challenge golfers of any skill level using
the different tees. Most holes are pretty tight and if you don't
hit it straight most of the time, you can lose a few balls.

Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Ranks with the best in this price level, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
