About
John Bredemus stopped off here in the 1920s to open up Kerrville’s first golf course. Originally private when it opened in 1923, the course was acquired by the city in the 1930s and the course remained public ever since.
Situated on gently rolling terrain, the course offers scenic views of the surrounding Texas hill country. R.D. Kizer and Joe Finger have had their hands in molding the layout, which features somewhat generous fairways and an interesting combination of mounded greens.
Bredemus designed the front nine, which is highlighted by the classic 592-yard par 5. This is a mean hole, with water cutting into the fairway twice and an elevated green that requires a perfect approach. The hole has character, with water along the right and an ominous-looking cliff framing the view. Another notable hole on the front is the dogleg-left No. 7, with trees dominating the left side.
The signature hole is No. 17, a 535-yard par 5. Water comes into play on the second shot and then again on the approach to the green, which is surrounded by water on three sides. A waterfall to the left of the green adds a pleasing aesthetic.
The back nine, which opened in 1977, is more forgiving than the front. The best hole is the tough, par 5 No. 17. If you survive the tee shot, water comes into play on both the second and third shots. The last shot is particularly pleasing because of the waterfall on the left side of the green.
Getting there : From I-10 west, take Hwy. 16 south and turn left on Country Club Dr.

Great 18 hole hill country muni. Usually a 5 star course but the lack of rain has it a little dry right now.
Overall good experience
Everything well with minor exception of the person checking in at the pro shop. Course didn’t look busy, I asked if there was any way I could play by my self (as it’s how I enjoy golf the most). He gave me a bit of attitude that I used a golf app to select my tee time, and those automatically pair you up. Keep in mind I didn’t ask rudely or demand to play alone, I only asked it if was a possibility. Nevertheless the person I played with was very nice (although a bit of a stickler for the rules). All that being said the course was much better than what I expected. Fairways were a bit hard in places but that can be expected due to the lack of rain for the last few months here in Texas

Enjoyed the round of golf. Late winter conditions, but nice layout and friendly staff.
A fun challenging course
Not having played this course in several years, not knowing the penalty areas cost me several strokes. A score card with hole layouts would be of great benefit.
The fairways and greens needed some work but overall were okay.
Great day!
No issue to report for this round. I played alone. Customer service was great! I asked if there was anything I needed to do? He said have fun! So I did! Other players let me pass them up. Had some older ladies that were a little rude but that’s to be expected. I apologize for being a man and went along my way.
Thanks!
