Since this is a bit of a destination golf course, go early and use the outstanding practice facilities.įun day, I'll be back to play in the wind and hopefully a little more grass around the greens. You could easily spend an hour or two prepping your game. One thing about WInstar that needs mentioned. We played in 4:05 on a Sunday afternoon - not bad. Pretty cool and they even knew who I was from 30+ years ago! Good group to get paired up with. Happened to be paired up with two guys from my hometown in Pennsylvania. The big clubhouse is now open - no more trailer! The weather was perfect - barely any wind (a rarity here) and 80 degrees.
Redbud layout is mostly the original course at WS - very fun, mostly open, some good strategic shots needed. Rough is still pretty penal but rarely in play. Fairways were mostly good, just a few bare spots. Some areas around the greens are still growing in or are void of bermudagrass. Seen nobody winning anything big and after a few hundies and nothing to show for it we left with a 36 cent ticket as a souvenir, and for 30 min. Free drinks place looks descent but slots were tight as can be. Redbud's greens were very firm although not exceptionally fast. 4 reviews of Gold Mountain 'Went in on late Friday night early Saturday morning and seemed busy but the casino is smaller than most. Both courses at Winstar are still recovering from freeze/drought/green rebuilds.
