About this course

The New Course at White Bluff Resort sits on the shores of Lake Whitney in central Texas, roughly an hour south of Fort Worth. Designed by PGA Tour player Bruce Lietzke and opened in the early 2000s, it represents the work of a professional golfer who brought his competitive experience to course architecture. Lietzke, who won thirteen times on the PGA Tour, created a layout that reflects his understanding of shot values and strategic options from a player's perspective. The course occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the Texas Hill Country's eastern edge, with elevation changes and native vegetation framing the holes. Several holes incorporate views of Lake Whitney, and the routing takes advantage of the property's natural contours. The design emphasizes playability for resort guests while offering enough challenge and variety to engage experienced players. Fairways are generous in places, but green complexes and strategic bunkering require thoughtful approach play. White Bluff Resort operates as a residential golf community with lodging and amenities available to visitors. The New Course complements the property's Old Course, also designed by Lietzke, giving guests two distinct layouts. The setting provides a retreat atmosphere within reasonable driving distance of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, making it accessible for weekend golf outings and longer stays. The course reflects the regional golf development pattern of the early 2000s, when resort communities expanded throughout central Texas.
