Ballinger Country ClubThis 9-hole, semi-private course (open to out-of-towners) features a small creek and mildly undulating terrain. The creek impacts two holes, and there is only one hole with bunkers. No. 2 is the signature hole, a 379-yard par 4 with a tee shot over a canyon and out-of-bounds on either side of the fairway. Nothing too fancy here–both par 3s are well under 200 yards. The first hole is a 268-yard par 4, and No. 3 is listed as a par 5 at 426 yards. The details : 915-365-3214. Country Club Dr., Ballinger, TX 76821
Getting there : From the courthouse in town, turn left on Hwy 158. Follow the road as it veers left over a hill. You’ll see a nursing home hospital, and then eventually a green sign on the left for the city lake and country club. Take that road through one stop sign, then another four-way stop, then follow the main road 45 degrees due west to the course. |
