Mesquite Grove

This is a nice golf course with driving range, I also like to come here for breakfast, $4 gets you a plate of eggs with hash browns and a tall cup of coffee. Got a double yolker today.

I played Mesquite many years ago and enjoyed the course. Well maintained, friendly staff..etc. Last week, came to town to visit relatives and mentioned golf to my brother-in-law. Gave the course a call an ask for a quote for my civilian guest and my self. I’m a retired O-4. The response was $80+ and change. Thought that was a little high; but livable. Once on the course I was shocked; the condition was absolutely horrible; if the AFGSC (GEN. Cotton) comes to town and wants to play golf; Abilene CC is you course. Grazing longhorns would be the best use of this acreage!!!

The course is poorly taken care of. You can barely tell where the fairway is because it blends in with the rough. You have to constantly move your ball so that you don’t hit rocks or weeds. The only good thing about the course itself is the greens. The greens are taken care of. I don’t recommend this course unless you are looking for cheap golf to play.
