LONE STAR GC

The high desert's relentless wind and firm, fast conditions create a pure test of ball-striking where elevation changes of 200 feet demand precise club selection and local knowledge. Strategic bunkering channels play through natural arroyos, while the back nine's dramatic routing along limestone ridges offers stunning views of the Franklin Mountains that somehow don't distract from the demanding approach shots below. This is West Texas golf at its most honest—no trees to bail you out, just wide fairways that reward aggressive lines and punish anything less than committed swings.
