Stone Creek GC in Sherman

[North Texas]

Played Stone Creek GC up in Sherman yesterday. Hadn't played it in at least 5-6 years mostly due to not hearing good things about course conditions. However, I was pleasantly surprised.

 

Fairways were mostly in above average conditions with some thin spots just here and there, the rough was decent but tough to play from, and the greens were actually really good. Like most courses, it can get a little dicey the farther you get off the fairways but the only real negative is that the traps are completely out of play. Got the senior rate of $25 and it was more than worth it. 

 

But here's the thing. This course has really good golf holes with variety, character, and elevation changes. I've played at least a dozen or so public courses in the north DFW area ncluding Cowboys, Heritage Ranch, Watters Creek, Frisco Lakes, Bridlewood, Firewheel, The Bridges, and Sherrill Park. And, from a golf course standpoint, Stone Creek stacks up with any of them. If the owners ever decide to really put money into it, they would have to turn people away. It's that good of course.
