The Silverhorn of Texas at The Silverhorn Golf Club of Texas

The Silverhorn Golf Club of Texas is a daily-fee facility located in San Antonio, designed by Randy Heckenkemper and opened in the late 1990s. Heckenkemper, a Texas-based architect who has worked on numerous courses throughout the state, created a layout that serves the public golf market in one of Texas's largest metropolitan areas. The course sits in the gently rolling terrain characteristic of the Texas Hill Country region, where elevation changes and native vegetation provide natural definition to the holes.

The routing takes advantage of the property's topography, incorporating the area's limestone outcroppings and live oak trees into the design. Water features appear on several holes, a common element in courses built during this era to add strategic interest and visual variety to the South Texas landscape. The layout offers a mix of risk-reward opportunities and straightforward holes, designed to accommodate a range of skill levels typical of public-access facilities.

San Antonio's golf scene includes both historic municipal courses and newer daily-fee options, and The Silverhorn serves the latter category. The club provides a full practice facility and clubhouse amenities standard for courses of its type. The course operates year-round in San Antonio's mild climate, which allows for consistent playing conditions outside the peak summer heat. As a public-access option in a city with a substantial military presence and growing population, the course sees regular play from both local residents and visitors to the region.
