Columbian Country Club of Dallas

The golf : Although not that well known, Columbian Country Club has been an exclusive all-Jewish Dallas-area club since the 1950s when Ralph Plummer was hired to build 9 holes as one of his first solo projects. Five years later Leon Howard rolled through to add the second nine, and sporadic renovations have been completed since then: one by Joe Finger in 1971, and another that was recently completed around 2000.

The collaborative efforts of all these well-known architects have produced a course that’s known for its small, fast greens, and numerous water hazards. In all, water is in play on 15 holes, and that–combined with the mature, tree-lined fairways–makes the 6,760-yard layout plenty challenging. The most difficult hole is 11, a 437-yard par 4 that plays uphill against the wind.

The details : 972-416-2131. 2525 Country Club Dr., Carrollton, TX 75006
