The Rawls Course

Although it has been several years since I visited The Rawls Course, I have to agree with recent reviews, especially Paul N. Would like to add that Tom Doaks was given the order to take the flat lands and try to emulate the Palo Duro Canyon in the design. A tough order, but he did a great job. As I recall, the first par 3 is fantastic. Recreating an uplift of the land, which most folks don’t realize is not a natural feature, but created in the design. Just stunning! Not like any other course. But you have to stop and notice!

Good course in Lubbock. Well designed and challenging. Great use of the land and landscape. Fun to play and staff is good. Only problem was that the greens had lots of ball marks. Not sure if it is members or maintenance.

Group of 10 golfers this course adequately accommodated with ease, The checkin process was seamless, Staffers were on-it with golf cart movement that allowed us to photo-op with logo'd material. Staff Marshal George, Noland + 2 counter checkin personnel of Mgr + young lady (name forgotten) set the tone of a good day of golfing. Not to mention, the young Man grilling up the hot dogs & frequent visit of Refresher Carts. The grounds were maintained & scenery pleasant However, we lost balls!! Will recommend this establishment. Will be back to visit.

Love this place! The course is what draws me. It’s a good challenge of golf and this day was in fantastic shape! Plus, tons of nice & friendly people making sure you have a great experience. Then, the food is on point. Whether you like Texas Tech or not, it’s a cool place to enjoy some golf and a meal. Personally, I love all the Tech stuff!

Update: I finally got to go back and play the course again. 1. The course was in amazing shape, and the greens were incredible. 2. Here's what I learned from playing a second time. The front nine makes you think you're going to break the course record, but the back nine brings you back to reality and reminds you that "Golf is hard." 3. You really need to be on the right side of the greens because there's so much slope that you could three-putt all day if you're not careful. 4. Stay out of the fescue and rough. You're toast if you end up in there. The rough is super deep! 5. The one thing that still makes me give it a 4-5 is the pace of play. We were cruising through the front nine, but then the back nine came to a complete stop. It took us longer to play the last four holes than the entire front nine. 6. Price-wise, they've started doing flex pricing based on how busy they are. For example, there was a tee time at 3:20 pm for $99. When I got there, it was $109, even though the parking lot was pretty empty and there were no lines to tee off. 7. If you're in the area, you absolutely have to play it!
