● The Methodology
Why our scores hit different.
Every DFW course is graded across 10 dimensions — conditions, value, greens, pace, service, food, amenities, and more — weighted differently for public vs. private. No pay-to-play. No country club politics. Just honest takes from local golfers who play these courses every week.
