Home > Courses > Fort Worth Mira Vista Country ClubThe golf : Mira Vista CC opened in 1987 with a Tom Wieskopf/Jay Morrish design. The parkland-style layout rolls through hills of native grasses and wildflowers, sweeping around three lakes that spice up the course. The duo’s design isn’t overly long, playing only 6,844 yards from the tips, but it boasts three par 4s over 450 yards and several long par 5s, including the 647-yard No. 6. This monster doglegs left inside a cliff that runs along the right side. Out-of-bounds is left, and a fairway bunker resides about a lob wedge from the narrow green, which is bolstered from behind by more bunkers. No. 18 is one of the more interesting finishing holes that you’ll come across, featuring two dogleg fairways, one right and one left, that both involve dealing with the creek that splits the two routes. The tee shot right is more favorable, since it is void of fairway bunkers like the ones on the left side. However, this option involves carrying two bunkers and the creek on the approach. The details : 817-294-6600. 6600 Mira Vista Blvd. Fort Worth, TX 76132
Getting there : From I-20 west, take the Bryant/Irvin Rd. exit and turn left. Drive 2.5 miles to the course. The entrance is on the right side of the street. |
