One of only a handful of A.W. Tillinghast-designed Texas courses, super-exclusive Brook Hollow Golf Club still has the charm of its original 1919 design, despite subtle revisions by Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore in the early 1990s.
As you might expect, this traditional course, while not all that long, plays difficult because of the tight, tree-lined fairways and the small greens. No. 6 is the signature, a 400-yard-plus par 4 that is famous for its downhill approach shot.
If you can hustle your way onto the course, you deserve a post-round beverage and burger at Club Schmitz (214-350-3607), the long-time Dallas tradition just down the road on Harry Hines.
Getting there : From I-35 north, take the Regal Row exit and turn right. When you come to Harry Hines Blvd., turn right and the course is just down the road. The entrance is on the right side.
