San Jacinto College Golf Course

San Jacinto College Golf Course

Pasadena, Texas




San Jacinto College is a local junior college with campuses throughout the Houston area.  Their main campus is in Pasadena, about 10 minutes from my home, and they have a 9-hole WALKING ONLY course that anyone can play for $10.  Did I mention it’s WALKING ONLY!


Surprisingly, in all the years I’d lived minutes away, I’d never played here – perhaps because it’s WALKING ONLY.  Barry called me one day and asked if I wanted to head over there for a round one afternoon and in a moment of insanity I agreed.  He had a new toy – some GPS caddie thingy – that he wanted to try out and I figured I might as well play San Jac some time.  I sprung the extra $2 for a pull cart because, well, it’s WALKING ONLY.
  

The course isn’t all that nice, but what do you expect for $10.  There’s not much protection either so wind is an issue.  Oh yea, did I mention that it’s WALKING ONLY!?!
