Tangle Ridge Golf Course

The golf : Tangle Ridge’s location near Joe Pool Lake is favorable because of the elevation changes that spice up this well-maintained public course. Golf Digest rated this 6,835-yard Jeff Brauer design as the 12th bet in the state in 1998-99, and deservedly so. The course offers some outstanding holes, highlighted by impressive bent-grass greens that putt true.

In addition to the elevation changes, Brauer’s design features generous fairways lined by thick brush and huge trees. Two holes grab your attention on the front side. The opener goes 469 yards and might be the most difficult on the course. While there aren’t too many hazards, bunkers protect the fairway and green, and the thick rough lining the fairway makes it a difficult long approach if you miss the smooth stuff off the tee.

No. 8 is considered the signature: a 575-yarder that rolls downhill off the tee to a creek that cuts the fairway at 300 yards out. The approach on No. 8 must carry the creek to an elevated green protected by two massive mounds.

The details : 972-299-6837. 818 Tangle Ridge Dr., Grand Prairie, TX 75052
