The Golf Club Of Texas

The golf : The Golf Club is Lee Trevino's only Texas signature course, located in the historic Briggs Ranch and created to be friendly for the average golfer. This open course rolls through a nice Hill Country setting, is loaded with oaks, yuccas, and wildflowers, and features water on eleven holes.
One both sides of the course, the second hole is the most difficult rated hole. No. 2 goes 398 yards from the tips and features a pesky fairway bunker and generally plays into the wind. The approach is into a green guarded by deep bunkers to the left and water in back. No. 11 plays 458 yards and is lined on the right by Lucas Creek, which makes it risky to cut the corner of the dogleg right fairway. You'll inevitably be left with a long approach, so remember that the bail-out area is to the left of the green.
