off of highway 6 go south on Austin parkway maybe 1/2 mile when you get to the aquatic center at the four way stop make a left and look for a parking lot on your right.

Hey! Neal is hosting a new league their, too. Neal Dambra is starting a league up at the new course in Sugarland. Hope to see quite a few folks join in on this one, pass it on to anyone you know that is on the SW side of town. League starts next Thurs. July 5th 2007. Hope to see you there around 5:30 - 6:00.

Is it a 9-hole or an 18-hole course?

I just got back from playing with Neal and Tony over there....GREAT job with course Neal!!
It has 10 baskets......There will be alternate tee's for the other 8 holes for League.
The course plays nice and is pretty challenging....Water is in play for quite a few of the holes (I lost my fav. star wraith to the water, Neal lost 2 and tony managed to get by dry) The sidewalks mark your OB lines..and there is a sweet "Island" hole where the basket is in a circle area surrounded by sidewalk. You must drive to with-in the circle on your drive or move to the drop zone, which puTT's you with a clear 30' puTT so save your par.
The word is that after a year if the park dept. sees it as a positive addition to their park that they will put in an additional 8 holes.
If you go out there....look for the signs on a thin silver pole...note the signs are not lined up correctly yet, but use the map on the sign and you won't have any trouble finding your basket.
Please watch for civies walking or jogging around the paths as we don't want to get the course removed due to casualties.
Sorry....no pics yet as it was raining all day
Thanks for the butt kicking Neal!

Fun course, makes you pick your lines and keep'em low. Plays fast and tons of SHADE! 8 more holes coming soon!
Might want to bring a hydra or a dragon if you can't stay on your lines....
