I havent played this course for 10 years and it was a great change of scenery from the usual Austin courses that I play. I loved being challenged by the layout and greens that demand precision. And every staff member that we encountered was super friendly and helpful. Im not waiting 10 years and will be back to play again soon!
Very disappointed that their college rate only applies up to the age of 23. Was very excited to golf at bandit but now since turning 23 I can no longer afford the large rates to play. Gonna miss this course, I hope they raise the junior/college rate to an older age seems like they would just let us go for the price as their tee times were wide open.
My first Bandit experience was top notch. From the level of attention in the pro shop, to the affable starter, the excellent service my group received from food & beverage, through the course itself. I have rarely played a more challenging design open to the public; the price point certainly belies it’s quality. The course was in impeccable shape in May, and we all left thoroughly impressed. I will be back, as I felt I left some strokes out there on those slick greens.
Great course and really fun to play. Unfortunately there are some management issues with uncourteous local members who can negatively impact the experience for other golfers on course.
Always a great time at any Foresight Property. By Bandit standards it was a very fast round too. Staff is awesome, greens were 8 outta 10 and my playing partner was a 9 outta 10.
Great course, but getting pretty pricey for what it is, $80 for 18 and 45 for 9
Great course with nice services. Great staff too.
Challenging but Fun course. Grounds were well kept and staff was very friendly. Recommend you visit when in New Braunfels!
Scenic, challenging course with excellent greens...Lots of roll, you must stay below the hole...Nice layout...courteous and friendly staff...Would definitely play again!!!
Great conditions and great layout. Decent food available.
Greens were super fast and in good shape, staff very friendly. Fairways werent as good as I had hoped and some sparse areas. If it is your first time playing the course it isnt alway apparent how to play a hole. My group hit to the wrong green on par 5 6th hole.
I have played golf in the San Antonio and surrounding area for 40 years. The Bandit is my favorite course. Super great layout and friendly folks.
Nice track bring your A game..
Beautiful maintained golf course. Friendly staff, the course is a good test for an Amateur golfer with nice scenery and wildlife.
Fantastic course! Greens roll true, bunkers in great shape, no dead patches. Was fairly wide open and easy to keep the ball in play which made for an enjoyable round. Would absolutely return. Only gripe is that theres no way to get to the second fairway on 18 without driving all the way around the clubhouse.
Went for a family day of golfing and just loved every bit of it! The course is challenging and well maintained. All of the employees were very professional and nice. We will be planning another outing soon!
Great place to play some rounds
Great public golf course. Friendly staff
Played the Bandit today and shot the best round of my life, 88. Not cause it was easy, I just had a great day. Course was amazing. The views and elevations were outstanding. The staff top notch, they had a cart at the Jeep before we even got out. Will be back!
Great shape. Very nice staff
Exceptionally incredible greens loved the design an layout as well. Definitely a memorable course that I will go back in and play in the future.
Fun course, good fairways and greens.
Course conditions were excellent as the weather cooperated for a great day of golf. The cart girl came around regulary and was friendly and efficient. Great course great day.
Ive been playing The Bandit weekly since Ive moved back to Texas 2 years ago. It is my home course and has delivered an outstanding golf experience everytime. Conditions tee to green, staff, and the challenge are all worthy of 5 stars.
The staff and course were phenomenal!!! I highly recommend playing The Bandit if given the opportunity!!!
Played the course today for the first time and was blown away! For the twilight rate right now it is easily a steal. Could easily charge double. Course was in amazing condition and all employees were amazing. Very challenging course and loved it! Will definitely be back!
One of the best rounds of golf Ive played in a long time. This course is rated high for a reason. The customer service was fantastic. The course was in pristine shape. If you get a chance to play here dont pass it up!
Course is well maintained and greens play fair ️. Many holes require you hit a specific area to score well. Good rule of thumb is to aim for the 150-yard markers.Course is located in neighborhood so, if you get in front of a “member” who will probably force you to play faster than you want. Don’t stress over it. No foursome should play in 3 hours. The course even offers cold, scented towels for hot days. Be aware there is a shooting range nearby, so if you may hear gunshots in your backswing on the front 9.
Such a beautiful place.
Course was great. Pace of play was a big joke. Too many country bumpkins playing . Horrible
Very nice golf course. The staff that works there are very polite excellent customer service. I will definitely be coming back next time Im in town. Cant wait
Course and the greens were in great shape. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I look forward to playing here again when I pass through the area.Course review: the course is very fair with great rewards for a good tee shot and the appropriate penalty for getting in the rough. Some of the par fours are looonnggg from the back tees but the par 5 are short if you make the down slope. Pay attention to the score card since a couple of holes are best played with a 200 yd shot off the tee. Also there are a couple of false fronts on the greens so do a little scouting. Hope to put this knowledge to use on my next round.
This a really neat course by an excellent designer, Keith Foster (who BTW had a fascinating and strange run-in with the law, look it up). The only reason I gave it 4 rather than 5 starts was the condition. Understandably, it is a great example of a course built to sell real estate that doesnt get enough play on it to generate the cash flow needed to keep it pristine. Im sure it would be very expensive to keep it in top shape since it has so many bunkers and undulations. That said, the greens were OK and the play areas were decent. The roughs, tees, bunkers and surrounds were pretty ragged. Still, its a fun course and a solid value if you are in the New Braunfels area.
Great place to play golfGrip
Great course. may be the best on the area. just wish i could score a better whenever i play it
I have played every course in central Texas, and the Bandit is my new favorite. I wish I would have played here much sooner if I knew about this hidden gem! The course was in immaculate shape, and the greens were rolling true. The course is difficult, but rewards accurate tee shots. I will definitely be coming back here, and it’s for sure worth the ~1 hour drive from Austin. Good burgers at the grill, and everyone that works there is friendly, polite and helpful.
Great staff@
I have played the Bandit since it first opened and it has never looked better.
I was there to practice at driving range and putting green. Check-in is quick, prices reasonable. Would be better if the grass in putting green was redone to remove all the holes.
The staff was amazing and the course was excellently maintained. Made a tee time showed up to play, showed up, the week was wrong. Might have been an issue with two tournaments, but wasnt due to the amazing crew and members! I rarely give reviews based on customer service as that is non-existent these days, but the service and the course were amazing
Nice course, interesting.
Great course. Staff was very friendly and happy to help.
Great course, well maintained
Great golf course!
I love, love, LOVE The Bandit. The course is beautiful and challenging. I struggle with it, but I have fun just the same. The view, especially the houses, very stimulating just like watching Caddyshack or Happy Gilmore. I like the people who work here, too. Theyre nice.
Great and very challenging golf course, also very scenic.
The course is in awesome condition. 18 holes of insane difficulty but incredibly beautiful
WOW!!! BEAUTIFUL GOLF COURSE great greens.
Challenging course in good conditions.
Great course! Well kept.
Fun, challenging course
Great challenging golf course
Very pretty. Great view.
Excellent golf course. Conditions are always top notch and the layout is challenging and exciting. Just as good as the premier courses of San Antonio and Austin but a better value. Especially at their twilight rates, you wont find a better bang for your buck in Texas.
Challenging
Held an open house here
Great course. Challenging and very well maintained. Staff members were accommodating and friendly. Highly recommend this course!
One of my favorite courses in central Texas. A great challenge and always in good shape. Fun everytime!
Great course design! Fairways and greens beautifully kept. If youre a serious golfer or just trying to improve your swing, this golf course is a must play.
Slow.
Great course! Even more wonderful community!
The course is very pretty and quite difficult, especially at this time of year when it is quite dry and balls seem to roll an extra 30 yards, right into the numerous creeks and ravines. For the last ten years we have spent March in New Braunfels. The greens at The Bandit are far and away the best I have ever seen at the beginning of March. (2018)
Great job by all....staff and volunteers were wonderful today for the Schertz, Cibolo, Selma Chamber Tourney. The course is in great shape, congrats to the Superintendent and his staff. The F&B bunch were on top of everything...
Will be nice when the weather warms up and the grass gets growing
Tough but fun!
I like the track, we played Sat morning, so it was slow. Very wet due to all the rain we have had this fall, but the greens and tee boxes were in good shape.
Very nice condition, greens smooth but slow and that is the only reason I didn’t give it a 5 star rating.
Course was in great shape considering 100 degree weather. Staff from top to bottom were AWESOME .Highly recommended !!!
Nice holes
It was an awesome course one of the best Ive ever played! And will play it again soon.
Not even close to a good golf course people are very pretentious rude
Course is nice, greens are fast. Range gets a little beat up, Ive been responsible for some of it working on my swing. I also take lessons there and JC is great, Ive learned a lot and have seen real results.
Starting to enjoy the lake also. Very clean,unique and much to do. Excellent course and Little waiting
Great place to play a round. Greens are in terrific shape.
Great course in great condition.
Great golf course. Well cared for. Windy today but challenging.
Challenging course for casual players but fun nonetheless.
Great Course. Worth the drive from Austin!
The course is in really great condition fast greens and plush fairways
Great spot. Super friendly staff. Fantastic greens.
Greens and fairways are some of the best in the area but clubhouse people will cheat you when paying greenfees. They will overcharge forgetting any special if you dont watch.
Best kept secret in south central Texas. Great golfing value; super neighborhood. Fisherman, musicians and artists welcome.
Great value!And has a driving range.
Challenging.....definitley need local knowledge...greens nice and rolled well.
Great golfing place. Beautiful golf course and check it out.
The course was in great condition and awesome views. Very good price for what they offer you only down side was i ran out of sunlight before all 18 i will just go earlier next time definitely a must play course.
Loved this golf course, and it was challenging, and in good condition, the only reason why I didnt give it 5 stars is because they made me look at a bunch of HOUSES that I couldnt afford. Lol! Its surrounded by BEAUTIFUL HOMES that take your attention off your shots. Lol!
Course always in great shape. people are courtesy. and always happy.
Sand traps could have been better. Some were wet some where packed hardpan and none of them were raked.
Theres a premier Golf Course. And ideal shape but tough to play.
Great golf course with friendly and helpful staff. Well worth the drive from Canyon Lake.
Great course
Very challenging golf course, excellent greens and fairways condition, friendly staffs.
Course was in awesome condition!!!
