Wildhorse Golf Course opened in 1996 in Davis, California, designed by Texas-based architect Jeff Brauer. The course occupies relatively flat terrain characteristic of the Yolo County landscape, situated within the planned Wildhorse residential development on the eastern edge of Davis. Brauer's design works with the site's natural constraints, incorporating water features and strategic bunkering to create definition and challenge on what is essentially prairie-style topography. The layout plays as a municipal facility and serves both the university community—UC Davis is nearby—and regional golfers from the Sacramento area. The course measures over 7,000 yards from the back tees with a links-influenced aesthetic that emphasizes ground game options and wind as a factor. Several holes feature water hazards that come into play on approach shots, while the bunkering style reflects Brauer's preference for bold, visible sand complexes that frame landing areas and greens. Wildhorse functions as an accessible daily-fee course in a region with limited public golf options. The facility includes a practice range and serves a steady rotation of local players, university affiliates, and visitors to the Davis area. The course conditions and playability vary seasonally with Northern California's climate patterns, with the layout typically firmer and faster during summer months. It represents a straightforward example of mid-1990s public course design adapted to Central Valley conditions.
