Any members at Oakmont that can comment on the course and membership experience?

I moved back to DFW area a little over a year ago - Highland Village to be specific. About a 12 handicap but I want to start playing more frequently. I'm about 15 minutes from both Bridlewood and Oakmont, so those are the two options I'm considering. I grew up playing Lantana and like the course, but the cost is a bit more than I want to pay.

Bridlewood has a "membership", but it's public so I imagine it's fairly crowded. I've never played Oakmont so I'm not familiar with the course. The fees would be more but don't seem unreasonable. I'm going to play a preview round, but wanted to see if there are any members here that would recommend it?

If you're looking for afternoon tee times at Bridlewood, it's VERY crowded.

The reason is because it's fairly inexpensive, yet kept very nice. If you don't mind paying a little more Oakmont is a nice track as well, and won't see 300 players a day.

Have reciprocated into to Oakmont a few times, seems like the Unknown Golf boys were there, if you use that app. It's likeable course and not a hard walk. Invited used to be Club Corp runs the place. I do believe it is considered lower tier in the Invited's reciprocal world, Las Colinas would be top shelf. Always enjoyed my rounds there...
