North of town lies the Amarillo Country Club, a private 18-hole layout that’s considered one of the best courses in the Panhandle. William McConnell designed the course way back in 1919, and renovations occurred in 1960 (Warren Cantrell), and again in 1983 (Jay Morrish).
Tree-lined fairways, various hills, and several out-of-bounds make this a tough course, even though it’s relatively short and there are minimal water hazards. The course has a good variety of holes, with several par 4s over 400 yards and only three par 5s. The feature hole is No. 6, a 349-yard par 4 that requires an approach shot over a lake into a green surrounded by bunkers.
Getting there : North of town on I-40 going west, take the Western Ave. exit and turn left. When you come to Bushland Rd., turn left; the entrance is on the right side of the road.
