has anyone played here ?

I played the first sixteen holes before getting rained out.  I'd recommend that anyone in town who can get on should give it a look see.  It is the only course I have ever played in Texas so I can't give you a regional feel for how it stands up but can say that my Golfweek friends would all come in between a 4 and a 7 with an overall average of 5.5.  I recall saying during the round that it is a solid top 400 course in the country with a shot at being top 150 modern if caught on the right day by the right guy.  It's Torrey Pines without the views or history - A good thing in my book.  note:  I was comped and thus may have views that are biased.

I agree with John (and I played all 18). A really solid golf course with well-sculpted bunkers, a pleasantly walkable routing and some very interesting green complexes on a better-than-average piece of Texas land. I remember thinking that the standard of golf design and construction has been raised over the last ten years and Craig Ranch was the epitome of this trend... a nice course that would have made a splash in the past but is drowned out by the cries of the flashier debuts (Bandon, etc...). Worth a look.

This TPC is noteworthy because you will cross the barranca something like 16 times in 18 holes from the back tee.  I liked it.  Nice variety.  Can play very long.  Interesting.  Extremely well maintained.

They push it hard in real estate magazines but I only know one person who has ever played it.He thought it was very well conditioned.

John:

You accepted a comp? 1000 posts wasted by 1 weak moment, at least you have proven you are human.
