The Golf Club of Fossil Creek

At The Golf Club of Fossil Creek, golf resonates with the echoes of Texas's rich ranching past, a legacy embedded in the very fabric of this Fort Worth club. The gently rolling terrain of the area, once grazing land, now shapes a demanding, yet playable course. Fairways are generous, but the subtly contoured greens and strategic bunkering of this par 72 course rewards thoughtful play. Originally designed by Arnold Palmer, the course blends classic design principles with the natural undulations of the landscape. While not the site of major championships, Fossil Creek fosters a competitive spirit among its members, with tightly contested club championships and member-guest events that are the highlight of the golfing calendar. Palmer returned for subtle refinements over the years always keeping the needs of the members in mind. The club's atmosphere fosters a relaxed conviviality, with members known for their unpretentious enjoyment of the game and the club's facilities. Its reputation is local and known for its friendly membership. The nineteenth hole buzzes with post-round analysis, invariably accompanied by generous portions of Texas-style BBQ, a club tradition as deeply ingrained as the course itself.
