Horseshoe Bay Resort (Ram Rock)

Phone icon (830) 598-1500

Description

Nicknamed “The Challenger,” Ram Rock is the most demanding course at Horseshoe Bay Resort, designed to test even the most seasoned golfers. Opened in 1981 by Robert Trent Jones Sr., it features narrow fairways, deep bunkers, and ten water hazards woven into rugged Hill Country terrain. The par-71 layout is best known for its island-green par-3 4th hole and relentless shot-making requirements. Precision off the tee and thoughtful club selection are critical to scoring well here. With its bold design and risk-reward drama, Ram Rock is a true championship experience.

Ram Rock is a spectacular, picturesque course. Looks like the service has improved dramatically since some of the previous comments I’ve had nothing but excellent experiences with the staff, and the course is challenging, frustrating, and rewarding. 10/10 Ram rock gets it right

Pace of Play was okay for resort golf, but honestly thought with the prices they have you paying greens would be in better condition. Putting is like being on the moon with the amount of craters and divots. Albeit not 100% on just the course crew to repair, that’s on the idiot golfers who don’t know what a divot is or how to fix it, but every single green is like Rocky Mountain road and the par 3’s don’t even get me started. Slick rock wasn’t too much better either…

I very rarely post a review, but I felt compelled after my experience at Ram Rock. Friendly staff, nice layout, challenging course. However, charging $225 and not giving your customer the heads up that the greens are both aerated and in terrible condition ruined the experience. There should have been a discount on the round, or at the very least, letting me know prior to teeing off. Neither the starter, the pro, or the staff gave any warning. To drive an hour and 30 minutes, and pay $225 to play greens that are worse than a public course in their toughest moment was a hard pill to swallow. I won't be going back and I am reconsidering playing in Horseshoe Bay altogether if they have no regard for basic decency in providing a great golf experience.

Imagine paying $250 for a round of golf and you walk across a bridge so unstable that it tips and you fall into the swamp beneath you halfway through the round. The greens are that of a Section 8 public course and seltzers are $14/each. Save your money and play somewhere else.

Course is great, I don't understand why the concessions don't accept cash on the course or why they handwrite your credit card info instead of having square readers. Also the cart girl tried to make me sign a blank authorization form and after tallying things up, she still overcharged me. Great course bring your own refreshments.
