Our Courses: Part II
In the “Our Courses” series, we wanted to give members and followers of Golf North Texas some insight to the courses we partner with. Without our courses, we can’t give golfers in north Texas the opportunity to find great rates while supporting local courses and junior golf.
Read on, and let us know about the rounds you play at our partner courses!
Meadowbrook Golf Course
Meadowbrook is located in Arlington, TX, about 10-15 minutes outside of downtown, Fort Worth. Built and designed in 1922 by John Bredemus, this course has been around for awhile and has been a favorite local course for golfers in the metroplex.
Standing at 6,262 yards in length, it’s not the longest course but tests the golfers ability to place his or her shots. There aren’t many blind shots, but there are plenty of long, narrow fairways. It’s a good test for golfers of all experience, whether you have been playing for 40 years or are just learning the game.
Oeste Ranch Golf Course
Oeste Ranch has recently gotten a makeover and moved on from the name of Crown Valley, but has made great changes and might be in the best shape the course has seen. Course Pro Ben Kern has been active in turning the course around and is a great resource for people wanting to improve their game or work on the fundamentals.
Located in Weatherford, it’s about 20 minutes west of downtown Fort Worth. At 7,242 yards in length, it’s a decently long course with a par of 72. No matter your skill level, Oeste Ranch is going to be a treat for all golfers. With good conditions, good pace of play, and a great staff, Oeste Ranch is a perfect destination for golfers wanting to play any time of the week.
Sherrill Park Golf Course
Sherrill Park is an old-school course in Richardson, about 15 minutes north of downtown Dallas. Composed of two 18-hole courses, the first course came in the early 1970’s while the second a few years later with the growth of north Dallas.
The #1 course is noticeable longer than the #2 course, but they both have plenty of creeks and trees to make up for any distance players might miss. The courses are a top pick for local players wanting to go out during the week or first thing on the weekends.
The first course measures 6,509 yards in length and is a par 72 with Bermuda greens and fairways. The #2 course is 6,375 yards in length, par 72, and also has Bermuda greens and fairways. Both courses can be a learning ground for new players but can also be challenging for regulars.
Sugartree Golf Club
Sugartree golf club is known as a hidden gem to most. Located in Lipan, TX, Sugartree requires some driving for most people in the metroplex but will be much worth the experience they get out of it.
Known for incredible course conditions and having a great staff, Sugartree should be on everyone’s list. There are tight fairways, small greens, trees and creeks, and will give most golfers a good challenge of a round. It’s 6,659 yards in length, par 70, and a great place for golfers to go to experience quality, challenging golf.
Tierra Verde Golf Club
Tierre Verde is another Arlington golf course known by many as one of the nicest municipal courses around. Located about 20 minutes southeast of downtown Fort Worth, Tierre Verde is another course known for having great course conditions during most of the year in Texas.
The course is 6,795 yards in length and a par 72, designed in 1998 by Gary Pankins. When you get a membership with Golf North Texas, you can find rates between $40-$50 depending on the day. Tierre Verde is a great destination for golfers in the metroplex!
Waterchase Golf Club
Waterchase is located about 25 minutes east of downtown Fort Worth, and about 30 minutes from downtown Dallas. Right in the middle of the metroplex, Waterchase is a favorite for golfers looking for high-quality golf with good conditions.
Standing at 7,289 yards in length, Waterchase has everything that golfers would want in a good golf course. Trees play a part in most holes, along with sand traps and creeks. Waterchase is friendly for all levels, but will give most golfers a good challenge of their game.
