Pecan Plantation Country Club

About
Leon Howard laid this course out in 1971, and was given specific orders by developer Bob Leonard to take the environmentally sensitive route when designing the course. Cut out of a 3,000-acre former commercial pecan orchard in the floodplain of the Brazos River, Howard did his best to preserve trees and create a unique layout with good holes. His best work here is reflected in the difficult par 3s, all requiring long irons when playing from the 6,800-yard-plus tips.
Getting there : From Hwy. 377 west, take Hwy. 144 south to Granbury. In town look for signs to the course.

Overpriced
I only play there because my brother in law and nephew live in Pecan Plantation. Having said that I never play this course well even though I should. The course layout is challenging and water on several holes which are my nemesis. I think for the price I could play other courses in the area cheaper. I know I'll play there again but it's a tough one for me.
Hardest Front 9 in Granbury
I'm biased because it's my home course. However, I will try to be factual. Course just spent millions on green and bunker renovation- and you can tell. Fantastic bunkering and greens. Subtle breaks, soft sand and high walls on bunkers could spell trouble. The back 9 is a little more forgiving which means not as long but still have to hit fairway. If you are looking for a challenging, well kept, good food nearby, and friendly people, this course is for you.
