Type Public
Par 71
Length 7078 yards
Slope 145
Rating 81.3

Highly touted Buffalo Creek has been praised for its layout, condition, and overall attention to detail. No matter who you talk to in the DFW area, they all seem to praise the superb condition of the course from tee to green. Offering a 7,078-yard par 71 Jay Morrish/Tom Weiskopf design, Buffalo Creek offers a good combination of holes: straight holes, dogleggers, uphill and downhill shots, and both long and short holes.

One of the best features is the club’s method of using a pin location sheet to mark exactly where each pin is located on a particular day (up to six locations), which is unbelievably helpful to hacks who’ve never played the course before and have no feel for the look and contour of the greens.

Getting there : Take I-30 east from Dallas and exit Ridge Rd. Turn right and find the course 1.6 miles down on the left.

Love it

Love this track. They just punched the greens but leveled it with sand so it was slow and not too bumpy. Should play well in a few weeks. Was in great condition otherwise. Friendly staff, good pace of play. Definitely recommended!

Mostly good, some not so good

The good: tees and fairways. 15 of 18 greens. bunkers. golf shop staff. pace of play for a weekend morning. layout. My driver and putter.

The not so good: Carts are in really bad shape. 3 greens virtually void of good grass. Being asked to keep up with group in front of us when we (3some) waited on every shot. My irons.

The course was great!

My only negative experience was the speed of the greens. They seemed to be cut very thin making shot difficult to hold. Fairways a little thin on some holes but to be expected due to winter.

Tree cutting really open up holes #8 #10 #16 and #18

Great pace good course conditions clearing trees on holes 8,10,16 and 18 make the course more playable.
