    I have been getting back into golf lately and have been surprised some of the courses I used to play at regularly have now gone fully private. I'm in the North side of town almost to the Woodlands.

    I currently regularly play or I'm familiar with:

    • Augusta Pines
    • Cypresswood
    • Windrose
    • Gleanloch
    • Golf Club of Houston
    • Blackhorse
    • Wildcat when I want the long drive to meet friends.
    A lot of the Woodlands courses have been taken private recently.

    I'm looking for thoughts about some of the best places to play around Houston (need to be public so I can play! Yes, I'm sure Bluejack, Carlton Woods or Champions is awesome). Willing to drive a while to try out a great place.

    Thoughts? Ideas? Hidden Gems? Any places outside of the city worth a 60-90 minute drive?

    Willing to lay down good money for a good course, but always like a bargain too.

    Galveston Moody Gardens is a public course. Supposed to be pretty challenging.

    Honestly, the ones you listed are probably your best bets. High Meadow Ranch is a great course on the north side. Maybe Tour 18, Timber Creek, & Atascocita as well, but those are it for the most part.

    I want to but I’ve heard it’s insanely busy and slow.

    No, just every daytime social event for every client-based business with white managers and sales people ever
