I’ve been trying to decide between the various Winstar golf courses, and I’m hoping to get some feedback from those who have played them. From what I gather, there seems to be a good mix of options, but I need help figuring out which one is considered the best. Here are a few points I’d love to hear your thoughts on:

I’d love to know how the greens are maintained.
Which course has the smoothest greens?
Are there any notable differences in speed or difficulty across the greens?
Amenities
What amenities does each course offer?
Are there any standout features or facilities?
How does the club atmosphere feel?
Overall Experience
How does each course compare in terms of overall satisfaction from players?

Other Considerations
Any tips for booking a tee time?
Best times to play?
I appreciate any insights you can provide. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts so I can make an informed decision!
I’ve played both the Championship Course and the Legends Course. The layouts are quite different! Championship is more open with larger greens, while Legends has unique elevation changes that add a serious challenge. It really depends on what kind of experience you’re looking for!
I totally agree! The Legends Course’s elevation changes can make it visually stunning, but they can also be tricky if you’re not careful. Definitely caters more to skilled players.
I’ve heard the new layouts are designed with both beginners and advanced players in mind. Does anyone find the tips provided on the scorecards helpful for deciding how to play depending on your skill level?
Yes! The scorecards give good info. Also, the Championship Course feels less intimidating for beginners compared to Legends, which can be quite punishing.
I love the aesthetics of the Championship Course! The natural features blend so well with the greens and fairways. It’s truly a golfing paradise. Anyone else felt the same?
I’ve played Winstar several times, and the strategic challenges on the Legends Course really test your skills! There are blind shots and tricky doglegs that keep you on your toes.
I consider myself a novice, so I opted for the Championship Course. It was more forgiving for my skill level, and I had a blast! Perfect for a relaxing day out.
The elevation changes on Legends can feel like mountain climbing at times! But the views are fantastic, especially from the higher tees. Perfect for Instagram!
I’ve played both the Championship Course and the Links Course at Winstar. The greens on the Championship Course were much faster and in excellent shape compared to the Links Course, which had some patches that were a bit rough. Definitely worth considering the Championship for better playability.
I agree! The refreshingly fast greens really enhanced my game. The Links Course was fun but felt less maintained overall. What’s your take on the fairways?
Fairways on the Championship Course were really well-kept, almost plush. However, the Links Course had some uneven spots that affected my swing. I’d suggest checking out the Championship Course if you want a better overall experience.
I played the Links Course last weekend, and although the greens were slower, they were fairly responsive. It added a different challenge. However, I can see how they might not appeal to everyone. They just need a bit more TLC!
