Pronounced “Umble,” where you’ll find the gracious and friendly staff at The Golf Club of Houston. This was the site that hosted the Shell Houston Open for many years. And while it was here, it maintained a cherished spot on the tour schedule … the week before the masters. It was the last chance for many pros to get a spot in the field not to mention, the staff maintained this course similar to conditions at Augusta. It was this site that attracted the top names in the sport to test their mettle. This is where they shave the banks so your ball can roll into the water/sand/hazard easier. They mow the fairways back towards the tee box to prevent your ball from rolling too far. They create lots of uneven lies all around the course and do a magnificent job of creating elevation changes in a part of the world where that type of feature is rare. So don’t think that because it’s flat that this course is easy. This course is ready to eat your golf balls like Cookie Monster so bring plenty of extras. Everything about this course caters to the premium golfer. If you tee off before noon, they will supply unlimited balls at the range which is why you will see such a difference in price between rates after the noon hour. Not sure if fore caddie service is offered here anymore like it was back in the day, but the day we visited, during the pandemic, this service was not offered. Hopefully a local resident or club member can provide some input for our viewers to let us know.
