Timberview Golf Course

The golf : In 1963 Fort Worth’s Fouts family opened Timberview as a 9-hole facility that subsequently became very popular, providing impetus for an additional nine holes. The design features flat, tree-lined fairways with water in play on half the holes. The front nine is the more difficult of the two sides, primarily because it’s not as open as the back.

Two par 5s stand out on the front nine. The 560-yard No. 4 bends right inside of two lakes on the left side, ending with a difficult approach into a multi-level, kidney-shaped green. The tunnel-like 517-yard No. 8 is lined by out-of-bounds on the left. In between the two, hole 5 is enjoyable because it plays only 296 yards, yet isn’t quite drive-able because the green is small and elevated.

The details : 817-478-3601. 4508 E. Enon Rd., Fort Worth, TX 76140
