    the conditions are about as good as they get. Ben calls the tee boxes the second best greens in Texas… after his own greens out there of course. the greens are the defense of the course and it is not too demanding tee to green. the par 3s stand out with good variety in distance…

    Special place and a true retreat from the hustle of Dallas. The course is kept in immaculate condition and is typically near empty. Staff and service are world class, especially if you’re a member.

    They’ve done a wonderful job designing the east, it’s significantly tougher than the west thanks to smaller greens and difficult bunkers

    Played from the Tiger Tees at over 7,500 yards but never felt unfair. Pure, perfectly manicured fairways lead right into pine straw, no rough to be found. Incredible bunkering with crystal white sand.

How we rank

This ranking uses each golfer’s conditions rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Conditions is the golfer’s overall conditions score, or the average of their greens, fairways, tee box, and bunker scores when no overall was given. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs conditions ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. State pages include courses across Texas. Rankings refresh about hourly.
