Length 7026 yards
Slope 129
Rating 73.5

One of the first courses in the growing 1970s Plano community, Pecan Hollow started out as the Plano Municipal Golf Course. Don January and Billy Martindale, who had recently completed their signature Royal Oaks in Dallas, contracted with the city to help provide golf for Plano’s growing population.

The terrain here is flat, and the fairways are mostly wide open. January used the standard bunkers, water hazards, and trees in his design to cause problems for the golfer. The greens are of medium size and speed, and the course is basically pretty standard until you reach the punishing final stretch of holes. Nos. 16-18 are all 445-yard-plus par 4s with water in play–one of the toughest tests of golf in the DFW area.

Getting there : From I-75 north, take Plano Parkway east, then exit at 14th St. Turn right, drive a short distance to the course, and look for the entrance on the left side of the street.

Great course

This time of year the grass is dormant so it’s hard to get a real feel of what the course is and looks in its prime. But I still enjoyed the grounds and there were still soft fairways for not being green. Course layout on the front was great. Only played through 12 due to slow play build up but it was still on pace to be in regulation. Not sure if the greens are always fast but those things went real quick. I liked but couldn’t get it down to the correct speed. Next time!

The Walking Dead

My son and I played here Sunday afternoon. We checked in, grabbed our cart and hit a bucket of balls at the range. We arrived at the 1st tee ten minutes early. There wasn’t range martial in sight. There wasn’t anyone playing directly in front of us, so we started just under five minutes before our tee time. My son is a novice player and we play fairly slow (mostly looking for our ball). I could see the group behind us from time to time, about 1.5-2 holes back. All was well until we hit the back 9. At hole 12 it happened we caught up to the group in front of us; walkers. And there we were, gridlocked.
