Avery Ranch Golf Club is a part of the Avery Ranch residential community, 20 minutes northwest of town, that was carved and blasted out of the rocky ranchlands along Brushy Creek. This historically significant area was once home to Indians and robbers, who were drawn to this beautiful setting thick with dense oaks, meandering creeks and abundant wildlife.

The golf course was designed by former Jack Nicklaus designer Andy Raugust, who literally had to use dynamite to blast rock out of the landscape for five holes. His design features two potential signature holes on each nine.

No. 7 doglegs left, and features two scenic carries -- one off the tee and another on the approach. The hole is rather short, providing the chance to be in good position for this most spectacular approach shot on the golf course. Staring at the multi-level green, you’ll notice the huge rock wall fronting the green, the large bunker to the right, and the native cacti to the rear.

Avery Ranch Golf Club's 13th is sure to be considered one of the best par 3s in the Austin area. The 161-yard par 3 features water on the right side, impressive, towering oaks in the back, and a unique ridge of rocks to the right of the green. The reasonable distance makes it a fun challenge, and the hole features a bail out area in case of a miss

Course was in good shape except for bunkers as they were very hard and packed down. Also no rakes so many footprints and marks in the bunkers. There was a crew out on the course filling sand in on one of the holes so hopefully they all get attention and bunker play becomes more consistent and in tune with normal playing conditions.

Great As Always

Always love playing Avery. Sometimes the price point is too high and sometimes it is a little slow but I love the course. Had a great round today. Just over 4 hours. Recovering from a week-long hard freeze so it was cart path only and not quite in its usual condition, but considering our recent weather it’s plenty good. If you’re looking for a good golf outing and have never played here, do yourself a favor and book a round. You won’t be disappointed.

SLOW pace of play

Took over 3 hours to complete 11 holes. We quit. They need to have a marshal monitoring pace of play. We will not be back.
