Mesquite Municipal Golf Courses
The golf : Mesquite’s muni, located in the
Duck Creek floodplain, was built in the 1960s by Leon Howard. Playing
only 6,280 yards from the tips and void of bunkers, it makes for
a fun day on the links. In fact, water comes into play only seven
times–not as much as you might think for a floodplain course
that has been ravaged by floods over the years.
The most challenging hole, No. 13, has water. It’s a 418-yard
par 4 that doglegs right and features a tee shot over a creek, followed
by a long approach to a tough, narrow green.
Other notes: Garrett Gill and George B. Williams redesigned this
course.
