About this course

Andrews County Golf Course sits in the West Texas oil country town of Andrews, roughly midway between Midland-Odessa and the New Mexico border. The course was designed by Warren Cantrell, a Texas-based architect who worked primarily in the state during the mid-to-late twentieth century, creating practical layouts for smaller communities across the region. The course occupies relatively flat terrain typical of the Permian Basin, where the landscape stretches in long, open horizons with minimal natural elevation change. Tree cover is sparse, as is common in this arid climate, meaning wind becomes a significant factor in play. The routing likely emphasizes strategic bunkering and green contours to create interest on land that offers few natural features for defense. Andrews County Golf Course serves as the primary public golf facility for the local community and surrounding area. In towns of this size in West Texas, the golf course often functions as an important recreational and social hub, particularly given the region's economic ties to the oil and gas industry. The layout provides a straightforward test suited to regular play rather than championship competition, with maintenance and conditioning adapted to the challenges of the high desert climate and limited water resources typical of the region.

Getting there

Most visitors arrive via Midland International Air & Space Port, roughly an hour's drive northwest through the wide-open expanse of the Permian Basin. The route follows Highway 385 north across flat, oil-rich terrain where pump jacks nod rhythmically against endless sky, the landscape spare and honest in its West Texas austerity. As you enter Andrews, the course emerges as an unexpected oasis of green - a testament to the determination required to cultivate anything this lush in such unforgiving country, and a welcome sight after miles of mesquite and caliche hardpan.
