Archer City Country Club
About
Defining the outskirts of town, with ranchland beyond the mesquite-lined fairways, this 9-hole, semi-private course has unquestionable character. Rusted iron ladders have been placed on the barbed-wire fences surrounding the course, enabling one to track down shots that somehow don’t find the fairway. The asphalt cart paths are cracked, the tee boxes are baked hard, and the bald Bermuda fairways shine like a bowling alley from the abuse of the sun and wind, enabling even the most incapable golfer to reach a par 5 in two.
The track features medium-length par 4s and a small lake that comes into play on a few holes. There are a few elevation changes, but the course is mostly flat. The greens are simple to read, a bit quick, and in good condition. Best of all, the price is right and the people are friendly.
Getting there : From Wichita Falls, take Texas 79 south to Archer City. Once in town look for the signs leading to the course.
