Course Highlights
Legacy Ridge features a distinctly varied layout with two contrasting nines — one winding through river bottom ponds, the other lined with towering oaks. Exceptionally friendly staff and outstanding value for money make this course a worthwhile stop for golfers in the area.

Bonham’s newest golf course has the natives all excited about their new Bill Johnston design, created to serve as the centerpiece of a unique residential community. With the benefit of several unique landscapes at his disposal, Johnston built a front nine that starts high and weaves through lakes and waterfalls, smoothly transitioning into a parkland-style route highlighted by pecans and oaks.

The par 5 No. 9 stands out on the front, taking you back up the ridge with an approach shot into an almost cliffside green nestled against the lake.

The wetlands of Bois d’ Arc Creek line the back nine fairways, keeping water in play most of the nine. Johnston made this one fun with multiple approach shots over water, including one par 3 that plays into an island green.

Do what you can to work your way onto this course, because it’s rare to experience such a quality course in such an enjoyable, rural setting.

Getting there : From McKinney, take US 75 north to the Bonham 121 exit. Hwy. 121 merges into Hwy. 56 south of Bonham. Turn right on Hwy. 82 E.

First Time Playing

First Time to Play Legacy Ridge

I had not played in over a month, so I needed to hit some range balls but they were out of range balls. The practice area is almost non-existent. As far as the course, some of the best greens I have played all year, very smooth putting surfaces and held approach shots well. The fairways were spotty which surprised with all the rain lately. The bunkers were mostly

Unplayable and automatic drop. I did really

Enjoy the layout of the back nine with a lot of large oaks and dog legs. The front nine was like a completely different course, very wide open and mostly straightaway holes. But overall, I enjoyed the round and was paired with some guys that were a lot of fun.

Aeration this week

Good course but the front nine was aerified and the back none was done Tuesday, 03/24. I would say this course is two weeks away from playing OK again.
