McAllen Country Club
For over 20 years McAllen Country Club was an average 9-hole layout. Then Jay Riviere came along in 1968, added nine more holes, and molded the course into a first-class layout. And now with the recent completion of a massive irrigation project, the course is in the best condition of its 55-year existence.
The design features plush fairways lined by oak trees, and small, elevated greens. Because of the tight fairways, locals are in the habit of using irons off the tee. The feature hole is No. 7, a 400-yard par 4 with an approach shot over water. Hole 17 is also tough, playing 222 yards from the back tees over water.
Getting there : From the McAllen Airport, take Wichita Ave. east. Once you cross the street next to the airport, you should be able to see the course.
