The Golf Club at Star Ranch
Hutto’s been put on the golf map now that the first-class Star Ranch has opened up on what was once a cattle ranch, boasting a unique collaborative effort from the Morrish brothers (Jay and Carter) and the Bechtol, Russell design firm.
The course sits on a hill and is built around a centralized lake, featuring the typical spectacular Hill Country topography highlighted by plush, undulating fairways and bleached white sand bunkers.
No. 2 is one of the most difficult holes and the first real challenge of your golf day. The 417-yard par 4 has more of an open feel than some of the other holes, but it’s length generally means a rather long approach, and the green is surrounded by several massive bunkers.
Getting there : From Austin, take I-35 north and exit Parmer Ln. Turn right and go east on Parmer to Dessau Rd. Turn left and go north on Dessau, which becomes FM 685. Go 5 miles past FM 1825 in Pflugerville and the club is on the left.

- Played this course in mid-October in the cold and rain. Cold and rain!! Even wet this course played great. Would love to see it on a beautiful sunny day. All greens are undulating and require good shot placement as most are quite large. Scenery changes from wooded to links-style throught the round. Amenities are top rate and no one on the mini-tour I play on had a bad thing to say about the course. Kudos.
