Brock Park Golf Course

The golf : Brock Park opened in the late 1940s next to the old Acme Brick Company, one of Houston's most beautiful areas because of its wooded location along Greens Bayou. They called it Lake Forest Country Club back then when the Elks Lodge showed an interest in owning the property. Finally in the 1960s, the city purchased the course in an effort to help meet the demand for public golf.
The best hole on the front is the 222-yard No. 2, a difficult par 3 that plays through a narrow chute of trees. On the back, Nos. 11 and 12 are both drive-able par 4s where you'll need to ensure par or better, since the number one handicap No. 14 looms close by. No. 14 goes 220 yards over Greens Bayou, and it's all carry.

The details : 281-458-1350. 8201 John Ralston Rd., Houston, TX 77044
