Pasadena Municipal Golf Course

The golf : On the grounds of the old Ellington Air Force Base that shut down in the 1970s lies the 18-hole Pasadena Muni, upgraded by Jay Riviere in 1981 with an additional nine. Water and out-of-bounds comes into play on every hole of this links-style track. The fairways are narrow and the small greens are elevated.
Water is everywhere, with some holes having wet stuff on either side of the fairway. No. 7 is the signature, a 437-yarder with water crossing the fairway and requiring a huge tee shot to carry.

The details : 281-481-0834. 1000 Duffer Ln., Houston, TX 77034
