I was extremely disappointed to find the people in front of us we had to wait for anyways but to have the staff come and tell us to skip a couple holes just to play was ridiculous I'm a disabled Veteran and I deserve to play, just as much as them I will never return to that course and I will explain to all my fellow veterans that business owners are more important that people who sacrifice for there country extremely dissapointed and upset.

I decided to take my Girlfriend Golfing for the first time and payed a good amount of money to get her started and have a love of the sport as I did but I should have called ahead of time to see if the legion was having there tournament because we couldn't even finish the first hole because they were calling and complaining to the marshal to have us skip a couple holes even though it was hole 1.

In addition to a large new clubhouse, there is a 6 hole par 3 short course called 'The Rivers Edge' which is used for the First Tee program. Though I haven't had a chance to get my kids there yet, Rockwood is also host to The First Tee Fort Worth. On the other 2 par 5's (4th and 18th) par is a great score You won't figure it out the first time, but this place will make you want to keep coming back for more.įrom the tips, Rockwood is just over 7000 yards.Ģ of the par 5's (2nd, and 13th holes) are reachable in 2. The course has beaten me up a few times, but I've never had a bad experience here, as it makes me question and re-consider parts of my game and strategy every time. In my 8 rounds here since the redesign, the course has always been in great shape. You can certainly tell how much pride the staff takes in maintaining this place. My most recent round was after several days of heavy rains, but the course and the turf held up great, the drainage works, the greens were still fairly firm, and the crew had every bunker perfectly raked. Large, undulating greens reward great shots and penalize mis-placed shots. Steep bunkers, native areas, and ponds make you pick your clubs and your lines with care.

Wide generous fairways let you strategically attack the hole from different angles. The course has wonderful routing for walking, with many tees directly adjacent to the prior green. After the re-design by Colligan Golf completed in 2017, it is now the gem of Fort Worth Municipal Golf. Up until a few years ago, Rockwood was a fun but worn down course in a great location, running near the Trinity River, and with views of the Fort Worth skyline to the South. (Get an early tee-time because it fills up in a hurry) Among all of the courses in Fort Worth, Rockwood is by far the best value with daily walking rates of $29 on Weekday and $40 on the weekend.
