DALLAS NATIONAL GOLF CLUB

The Scottish links-inspired routing cuts through 240 acres of North Texas prairie, where native grasses whip in the wind and strategic bunkering punishes wayward shots with the severity of a true penal design. Architect Jim Colbert transformed this former cattle ranch into a walking golfer's dream, with elevation changes that reveal distant downtown Dallas skyline views on clear days. The greens run firm and fast year-round, demanding precise approach shots that reward local knowledge of the prevailing southerly winds.
