Golf Course Help

[Swampy]

I lived in Austin for 5 years while attending UT and just now and getting back. I am having a bachelor party in early May and would like some advice on which new course (I know all of the other) would best suit a wide range of players. Price is of no consideration. Suggestions?

Teravista in Round Rock is pretty wide open and fair. Star Ranch (Hutto) is also pretty friendly to golfers of different skill levels. Falconhead in Lakeway isn't bad either. All these courses are new in the last five years.

These courses are amongst the nicer daily fee courses that have opened (good playing conditions, etc.).

Star Ranch is your best bet IMO. Better players can play from the back tees and all others will enjoy how forgiving it is off the tee.

Also Star Ranch caters to group outings, depending on if you guys are going to have a big group or just a 4-8 guy deal.

I highly concur with the Teravista and Star Ranch recommendations. Just make sure ahead of time that they'll allow you guys to have strippers on the course.

I have played Star Ranch a couple of times and enjoyed it, but haven't played TerraVista. I guess I will have to give it a try.

I have read the review on Falconhead and that sounded good as well. Which of those three is best for this occasion?

Plum creek for your bach party. BYOB, baby.

Asked and answered; I'm sold. BYOB, WOW. Thanks.

Plum Creek is a marginal course, at best. You would have a much better time at Falconhead or Teravista..

 

[mishatx]

it's a decision you have to make: nice golf, or lots of booze. Everyone I've presented this choice to for a bachelor party has always opted for the booze.

 

[iamtigerwoods]

Seems if price is not an issue for the course, it should not be an issue when it comes to booze either...

Well I don't mind paying for a nice course, in fact most of the time I prefer it b/c you are more likely to get a course in good shape, but on the other hand I don't much like paying the $$$ for how much will be consumed at a Bachelor party. That could possibly double the green fee!

I am playing Falconhead next week so we will see.
