The word on the course.
How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.
Golfers treat Old Brack as a piece of living Texas golf history, a 1916 Tillinghast muni with a tight, tree-lined front, a more exposed back, and a 2008 Colligan restoration that restored most of the original character. Reviews lean affectionate, with friendly staff and very good greens for a muni, and the price-to-history ratio is the headline.
Consistently praised
- Tillinghast bones with 64 bunkers and a tight front nine that rewards placement.
- History runs deep, including hosting the first Texas Open in 1922.
Worth knowing
- Some find full rack rates a touch high for a muni, midweek or twilight is the value play.
Golfers recommend
- Leave the driver in the bag on the front, fairway wood placement scores better.
- Visit the small heritage displays in the clubhouse before your round.
