Today is Friday September 1st. 2023, I am an avid golfer and…read morehave been playing for many years. Yesterday, myself and two golfing friends played a course named Timber Creek. This is a beautiful course, well maintained and very well organized. All three of us are in our late seventies and play the senior tees. We paid almost $50.00 for a week day round senior fee. Now, as I said the course is very nice, well maintained and well managed and all employees we met were courteous and helpful. Having said all that, I do not expect any of us will ever return. The number one reason we play golf is enjoyment of the game and one another's company. We have always been good golfers with single digit handicap's more often than not. The course layout is very penalizing for senior golfers, expecting carrying distance on a majority of the holes for anyone over age 50 to accomplish with reasonable effort. That scenario eventually causes one to no longer enjoy the round, as it is a very difficult situation that makes you miserable and unhappy. The par three holes are way too long for senior golf and add time to the round as a result. We, like the majority of the world's golfers play golf for fun and exercise, not pain and suffering. This course, while a beautiful property, isn't laid out for enjoyment by anyone playing golf at the senior level. We know we aren't playing for a living, but we are wanting to enjoy ourselves and would prefer the opportunity to score a decent round if we hit a ball well. The distance should be determined by layout of terrain giving thought to senior capabilities that are realistic. As an example, a 190 yard par three uphill over a hazard is not realistic for 99% of senior players. While it was a beautiful course we all separately agreed we would rather play elsewhere at a golf course we feel is a fair test of our skill and age combined. Therefore it's my recommendation no one under the age of 50 bother to try playing Timber Creek golf course in Friendswood, Texas; should they want to feel they had a fair test of their golfing skill.

Greens are in terrible shape. Other then that the layout is great. But for what it has been lately…read moreI wish they would lower the prices because its not worth what they ask to play there. You could easily pay that amount and play somewhere better with good greens.

After a dismal experience at the Houston Galleria Nordstrom, I decided not to buy the shoes there…read morebut noticed that Dick's carried them. Go figure, all of the 'local' stores (some of them 20+miles out) showed one pair so I knew to call to make sure they had them before driving out. Of course, the closest one didn't have them, but the next one out in Friendswood (Baybrook) did. I didn't mind being on hold to confirm this, so I was on my way. The drive out wasn't so bad, and the parking lot was huge since it was in a decent sized shopping center. I did have to wait in the checkout line (which had only 2 people working) so it was about 10 minutes, but more associates were brought on after this. I wish they were on hold in the actual shoe section since I wanted to make sure the fit was perfect and when I brought this up, the guy said I could bring them back if they didn't work out. I took them back to the shoe area after purchasing to try, and they worked. Service was great over the phone with the girl who confirmed the stock, and the guy at the register was cool as well. It was worth the drive out here!

Amazing experience at this store in Baybrook Mall…read more We had called regarding getting a Puma Hyrox Shoe that was only offered online for an upcoming Hyrox race. Christian went above and beyond to find the shoe in our size after getting special permission from Justin the manager to sell it since it was not even on the floor yet due to an upcoming Hyrox event they were having at their store. That type of customer service will make us a Dicks Sporting goods customer for life. Their marketing person even came over to tell us about upcoming events leading up to the Hyrox event in Houston and welcome us back. Even though it was over an hour drive, we absolutely will return to this location and will tell all our friends that live closer to this area about how amazing we were treated .

The owners have been working on and improving them and each time I have the pleasure to return. They have completely reworked and done a lovely job. The staff is really the important part of the experience. From the gentleman and ladies who work in the pro shop to the pros themselves I can't imagine a more wonderful staff assembled under a single roof. This is one of the best golfing experiences you can have in and around Houston.

My son had a high school golf tournament here so we usually rent a cart to get him out to the…read morefirst hole and watch him play. Most places he plays at the charge $10-$15 for a spectator rental cart. This place charged $32.00. I understand you have to make money but in my opinion is taking advantage. If it was a really nice cart I could maybe understand but it's not. Pictures below.

Great food, we have been there twice and I ordered the Italian Sandwich and the smash burger and…read moreboth were excellent. The place was busy both times but the service kept up. The Mangers Matt and Brian made sure our drinks were full. Tisa is an A+ waitress and very friendly. Brian gave us a tour of golf area (mostly in a separate section from the bar area) and answered all our question regarding pricing and membership. We will be back soon!

Ask for Tisa at the bar. She's incredible, timely, and always has a smile. Great happy hour.read more

JJ Wood's private and group lessons are far superior to any golf instruction I have come across…read more Golf is an overpriced sport across the board in my opinion, but the instruction and resources he offers and readily makes available make his lessons the best deal of anything golf related. First, he's an experienced and excellent coach. His breadth of curriculum for every aspect of the game, and the level to which it is organized rivals what I would expect from a pro's pro. Additionally he's more adept at using technology not only for assessment but also to work with you outside of lessons. This is where his value is above and beyond others. There may be some equally experienced instructors, (though he's played in PGA Tour events and coached at multiple division 1 universities) however other instructors do not leverage multimedia nearly as well so they don't offer the same level of interaction or dedication to your improvement. All students get a CoachNow account and he posts videos and commentary from your lesson so it's always available in a smartphone app. In a 1hr lesson you may only remember 10min worth but with his approach you can always go back and watch it. Again and again. Then if you have a question, you just send it through the app and he gets back to you with an answer, a video, a drill, or even just strategy. I have been playing golf for not quite 2 years and have working with him for the last 5 months. I have gone from a 25 handicap to a 9 in those 5 months. My 8 and 6yr old kids started his kids academy (which they love) and my son (6) just got his first 2 legit pars on a legit course last week! May not seem like it but I am still totally selling this guy short. Check him out.

Top Golf has a indoor bar and tables as well. The Service always is amazing and they are very cheerful and helpful too! I have tried the cheese curds, the warm apple cider which was seasonal and I recently had the Frie Tower and sliders. The sliders where not so good but that tower and the tots where pretty tasty. Prices are reasonable for sharables and they have a variety of drinks. Once you try top Golf you will want to return, it's the view and ambience for me!

We came around 9:00 a.m. to beat the heat. We had a large group, but the restaurant wasn't busy and there were only two bays on our floor Our waitress accidentally skipped me and my friend when taking drink orders. When she came back with mimosas for the rest of the group, we asked for Red Bulls instead, but those were forgotten. We ended up reminding her about 30 minutes later after our food had already been ordered. I ordered the breakfast scramble, and when it arrived it was missing the salsa that was supposed to come with it, and I wasn't given any silverware. We couldn't find our waitress for about 20 minutes to ask for the missing items, which was frustrating considering how quiet it was. Overall, the staff wasn't rude, but the service was noticeably inattentive. I'll still come back because I like top golf, but this visit was definitely underwhelming.

I don't usually leave reviews, but this one needs to be said…read more Beacon Lakes Golf Course is, hands down, one of the worst golf experiences I've had--especially for the price they're charging. Nearly $70 for a round here is honestly unbelievable once you see the condition of the course. Maintenance is clearly not a priority, and it shows everywhere. What really stands out (in the worst way) is the customer service. The staff was not only unprofessional but openly disrespectful. Making comments toward customers--especially families with young children--is completely out of line and unacceptable anywhere, let alone a place that's supposed to be welcoming. On top of that, they're watering the course during active play, which completely disrupts the game and shows a total lack of awareness or care for paying customers. Rules seem to change depending on the day, so don't expect consistency or fairness if you're trying to follow guidelines. At the end of the day, this course is charging premium prices for a below-average (at best) experience. There's a serious disconnect between what they think they're offering and what customers are actually getting. If management doesn't take a hard look at staffing, maintenance, and overall operations, this place is going to continue losing business. There's potential here--but right now, it's being completely wasted.
