Brazos bend outside of Manvel. It's closed now. There were cracks in the "fairway" large enough to lose you ball in. Every bounce was unpredictable and you never knew where it would end up.
Brazoria Bend - learned to play there and you've described it perfectly.
As a broke high school/college kid learning to play the game in Alvin/Manvel I had three courses in rotation, two of which might make any "worst course" lists.
Brazoria Bend - a near perfect example of "cow pasture golf"
Hilcrest - Only redeeming quality is that it was one of the first courses in the Houston area that was lighted and therefore playable at night.
Alvin Country Club - not "nice" but so much better that the two above that it was like a TPC
BB & Hilcrest were both <$15 so I played them A LOT. ACC was $22, so it was a bit out of my price range except on special occasion.
