DE CORDOVA BEND COUNTRY CLUB

The gentle rolling terrain along the Brazos River provides an unexpectedly sophisticated canvas for this Hill Country gem, where elevated tees reveal dramatic elevation changes that belie Texas's reputation for flat golf. Strategic bunkering and mature pecan trees demand thoughtful course management, particularly on the back nine where water hazards come into play on five holes. The bentgrass greens run pure and fast year-round, a rarity in central Texas that justifies the drive from Dallas or Fort Worth.
