My family is moving close to the DFW airport, I was wondering which courses are the better ones and which is a good course to get a membership at and a rough membership price?

Thanks

That is a tough question. DFW has a lot of courses, possibly more courses per capita than any place in the states. You will not have a problem finding good courses at good rates. As far as memberships to private and semi-privates, I have no idea, but you're certainly going to get better bang for the buck than D.C.

Check out the Avid Golfer website, they put out a Best of Private Courses issue every year... The results should be on their website, myavidgolfer.com
They list initiation fees and dues of all DFW clubs

Courses I love to play DFW area (no particular order)

The Tribute-just like baby bear's oatmeal. Just right. I don't know how they keep the greens so moist, even in the summer. http://thetributegolflinks.nemexinc.com/default.cfm

Texas Star-Perfect course, perfect greens. http://www.texasstargolf.com/

Keeton Park-even in the midst of a Texas drought, because the course is so low laying, it retains moisture. PS don't play after a rain http://www.keetonpark.com/golf/proto/keetonpark/

Westridge- 6 par 5s, 4s, and 3s. Might appear gimmicky, but it works. Don't know why more courses aren't designed in this manner http://www.westridgegolfcourse.com/l...=158&page;=2503

Coyote Ridge-that Sam Moon guy spent the money in all the right places (Jerry take note--all that glitters is not gold) http://www.coyoteridgegolf.com/sites...584&page;=30723

Tenison Highlands and East course-rarely crowded. Independent self employed individuals finding golf balls for you. http://www.tenisonpark.com/golf/proto/tenisonpark/

Cedar Crest-Great renovation by D.A. Weibring in 2004. Love the history here. It is also close to Wingfield's--Dallas Best Burger(call your order in 30minutes prior to getting there)

Anywhere with my Dad or good friends.

Country View in Lancaster-gets better evey year. Love the course, hate the drive (from where I'm at now) http://www.countryviewgolfcourse.com/index.php

Avid golfer recently ranked the best private clubs in DFW. They also list the price of membership.

If I had unlimited funds and wanted to play the same course all the time, I'd go with Dallas National. Then Brook Hollow vs Colonial.

I'll second uttexas' comments above. For public courses, the Tribute is the best. Near the airport, you can get a membership at Hackberry or Timarron pretty easily. They are ClubCorp owned, but good tracks for a good price. We're members at Bent Tree and love it since they have a good junior membership and we're under 40.

My favorite though is Preston Trail because of the exclusivity. Dallas National and Brook Hollow aren't in the nicest of areas but have the layout to die for. Vaquero is also plush. All $200k clubs though.

I graduated from SMU in 99'. We used to really enjoy Creekview in Crandall. Probably a 20 minute drive or so. The best part for us was that it was around $40 back then which is crucial on a college budget.
