One of the smoother walks in golf, Colonial is a special historic course. The Perry Maxwell design, with Hanse Reno is just a fantastic combo of architects. It’s a tough course that is just very hard to overpower.

The OCM redesign is charming, playable, visually appealing, and delightful. I’m very surprised this course doesn’t get more attention on best of Texas lists given the club’s illustrious history and layout.

Trees are the main challenge on the course, holes present some different challenges with dog legs but no elevation change or water, few sand traps only around the greens. Greens were pure. Pace of play was terrific.

Kind of a dog track, but a well-maintained dog track. Got roped into playing here a few times with customers who lived nearby. There's nothing special about this place at all, it's actually kind of boring.
