About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
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.

Course is ok, pace of play horrendous

First time playing here, the staff wasn’t too friendly. Pro shop sounded put off when calling to make the tee time and then even more put off when checking in. Course condition was decent, tee boxes weren’t torn up, fairway mowed and maintained, and the greens rolled fast. Layout of the course is nothing special, played pretty short from the mid back tees. Each hole was pretty open with very few holes having serious hazards. Pretty forgiving course for missed shots. Pace of play was absolutely horrendous. At one point we had 7 groups backed up waiting on one hole, and the group behind hit onto us several times while we were waiting for the group in front of us to move. Practice facilities are nice though. For the price, and the fact they require a 2 person minimum to book a time I wouldn’t come back. Plenty of better courses in the area that offer more bang for your buck.

Shared carts - Not proper social distancing procedures

When I checked in, I was told I had to share a cart. I don't see how this is social distancing when I'm sharing and sitting next to someone I don't know. I opted to walk rather than share a cart.

All the other courses I've been playing during the pandemic have allowed one player per cart.

Course is also very busy and I had to wait between shots.

PICK UP THE PACE, PLEASE!

The Marshalls need to do their job; PLEASE. Took over 5 hours to finish the round today. The wait on every hole was ridiculous. Really gets you out of your rhythm. Would like to say more about the course, amenities, etc., but can't get past how bad they allowed the pace of play to drag today. I can live with 4& 1/2 hours, and that's a STRETCH! But over 5 hours! UGH! Come on Marshalls!
