I will be in Dallas, TX May 31 and June 1 and may be staying the weekend. I'm wondering if anyone has any course recommendations. I don't know if I'll be renting a car, so close proximity to the Dallas area would be helpful. I've never been to Dallas. I'll be staying near the "Galleria Dallas" if that's helpful.

Thanks!

ok...here's the scoop...

Bridlewood is good, but it's not nearly the best.

The Tribute is the highest ranked. It's a collection of scottish replicas and they are extremely close to actual. Cowboys is probably second, but usually higher priced. Bridlewood is good, Tour 18 would be great, but the condition is suspect.

All 4 of those are about 30 minutes from the Galleria, I live just north of the Galleria and it's mostly Private courses around there. Maybe try Firewheel in Garland, Twin Creeks in Allen.

However, if I was playing in Dallas and had 1 round it would be the Tribute followed closely by Cowboys. Whenever I have guests in town and we don't want to play our club, I take them to those 2. Bridlewood wouldn't have that much of a memory in terms of the holes.

I played Twin Creeks that same weekend that I played Bridlewood. Twin Creeks was a nice course, but was rock hard. Maybe all the rain has softened it up, but I wasn't impressed by the fairways and on how hard the greens were.

If you have any connections, I highly recommend the TPC - Craigs Ranch. Solid course.

I agree on Bridlewood...little bit better than Twin Creeks. TPC at Craig's Ranch is outstanding, but private.

    • Great post and I agree with almost all of it. The discipline piece is real — most golfers want the result without the reps. One thing I'd add: there's a version of discipline that happens away from the range too. The 20 handicapper who texts the next day with a full-speed video — that's not just a practice discipline problem. That's an identity problem. He still sees himself as a 20 handicap who's trying something new. He hasn't made the internal shift to being the golfer who practices with intention. I work on the mental side of the game and what I've found is that the golfers who actually stick with the slow, boring, disciplined practice are the ones who've done some internal work on who they believe they are as a golfer. The ones who quit after two range sessions never changed the story they tell themselves. They're still running the old software. Discipline isn't just "will you do the reps." It's "do you believe you're the type of golfer who does the reps." That belief piece is what separates the ones who text you the next day with a full-speed swing from the ones who actually put in the work.
