Old Brickyard Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Some argue that the tricked-up golf course has no place in today’s game, but they might change their mind after visiting the eclectic Old Brickyard. As the name implies, the course lays out in and around an old brickyard, featuring dramatic elevation changes, blind shots, and some unbelievable, almost impossible holes. This is one you’ll want to play just to say you’ve seen it.
The opening holes are pretty basic as you traverse northward before turning into the meat of the course, where the dramatic elevation changes start wreaking havoc on your club selection. After about the third or fourth hole, every hole seems to have some unique feature.
The Old Brickyard Lake comes into play on holes 9-11, some of the most difficult holes you’ll find anywhere. After you limp homeward suffering near-disasters on the tricky par 3 No. 8, which plays over water and seems to drop about 5 stories, and the demented 9th hole, which features a funky tee shot and challenging approach over water to a difficult green, No. 10 is not a welcome sight. Hole 10 plays from an elevated tee box, with water along the right. Water comes into play on the next two shots as well, since it cuts across the dogleg-right fairway. If you’re struggling, this is a double-digit hole for sure.
There’s no real break after No. 10, either. The 13th requires a precision short iron to a tiered green. More surprises await as you finish the round, so be prepared. The yard is a fun day of golf.
Getting there : Take I-45 south from Dallas to Ferris, then exit 267 and continue down the access road to the entrance on the right.

Very, Very Challenging Hole Photo submitted by fryersroost on 05/08/2013
Nice Course Decent Price
Brickyard is pretty good shape right now. The fairways are green and not too hard. The Greens could use some work a few have bare spots and the speeds are very inconsistent throughout the course. But all in all its getting back to where it used to be. Check your cart before you head out its hit and miss on getting a cart that can make it up some of the inclines on course.
Fun course
Tough course with a lot of blind shots and elevation changes. Was a blast to play.
Pretty nice place
Played an evening time at 4pm thinking it might be a little less busy...boy was I wrong. There were people everywhere. I was lucky to get a cart. I ended up only playing 9 holes due to getting sandwiched so much between groups and noone was letting anyone play through but there wouldn't have been a point to. But in all fairness with the Covid stuff going on...golf is one of few things you can still do in groups at the moment. The course was gorgeous...greens were faaaaaaast. The layout is pretty neat. Some awesome elevated par 3's and pretty hilly par 4's and 5's. I would play this course again in a heartbeat..especially for 20 bucks in the evening. Just wish the pace was a little more smooth. A+
Fade won't cut it
Great, challenging course. Elevated tees playing thru a valley, with hills, water, mounds, and fairways that call for hybrids and long irons over 3W and Drivers.
Windy day, and I stuck to 19 degree hybrid to keep ball in play. Watch for water, ravines, and balls going off the fairway to 40 ft drops.
Your mid iron game must be accurate. Due to wind and Tstorms, was only able to play front 9.
There are air pockets, valleys where you have to aim at 45 degree angle to green if you want to play the wind on #4 par 3. Better if you half swing a 5 iron and play it low. LOL
If you are good at carving the wind, and have a natural draw, then this course is for you, for all the hazards are on the right side. If you have a fade, bring a few balls you care not to lose and hope for the best.
Fun
This was a fun but challenging layout. I'll definitely be back in the near future.
Challenging course
Some work going on but not restricting or interfering....great value for the money...will be back again....greens in good shape...just hot in Texas...all in all very satisfied
Great shape
I’ve played here prob 30 times, best shape I’ve ever seen the course in
perfect day
course was difficult as always, but the weather was perfect which made for a great day!
Very fun course
I really enjoyed my round, the course has a very unique layout with lots of elevation changes as well as lakes and ponds that make it challenging. I wish I lived closer, but I would make the 45 min drive to play again soon!
Great Shape
The course was in great shape. The greens were amazing and we really enjoyed the round.
Old Brickyard
Good value for the money. Played fast and course was in pretty good condition.
Amazing day
Perfect weather, light traffic, arrived 30 minutes early and were invited to tee off whenever ready!
Fairways came in nice, good lies.
Enjoyed getting out after 6 weeks of solitary confinement.
Thank God for 1 more day in His beautiful work of art. EARTH!?,
