Silverhorn Golf Club of Texas, located only 15 minutes from San Antonio's Riverwalk, has quickly gained a reputation as being some of the best golf in Texas. The layout covers 262 scenic acres of rolling hills covered in mature oaks and cedar trees. The challenging golf course features tree-lined fairways and carefully contoured greens. There are also lakes and creeks, both dry and wet, coming into play throughout the golf course. The front nine's signature hole is the par-5 sixth, which has 20 acres of water bordering the entire left side, while the back nine's signature is the par-4 15th, which is considered the toughest hole on the golf course. This 446-yard hole features an elevated green that is guarded by a large bunker on the left and two creeks crossing the fairway.

Be sure to look for rocks.

I’ll say the greens were probably the best part. I don’t think I’ve ever played a course where if you miss the fair way (I know we should hit those and it wouldn’t be an issue) by 2 feet you where hitting off dirt and there where lime stone everywhere. I had to make sure there were no rocks behind or under my ball before I hit so I didn’t damage my clubs. I think if they would have charged 30 bucks it would have been worth it but the fact that it was over 100 bucks really leaves a sour taste in my mouth. I’ll admit I’m not from around here but played with a few local guys and they said it’s a little different in the summer. I’ll just have to take their word for it.

Nice Layout

Track has a very cool layout. Greens are in great shape; however, it is at the cost of the area around d the greens. Lots of really soft, if not muddy areas around the greens. I can deal with that. They MUST get a Marshall on the course and increase the pace of play. A five hour round on a random Tuesday afternoon is not acceptable.

Not quite sure why this course has consistently the slowest pace of play in town, no matter what time of year. . Nor do I understand why the course is always so wet and muddy on the approach to greens. Beautiful layout, but oh that pace of play. Gracious.

Silverhorn has always been a nice course. I just wish they hadn’t gotten cheap and removed all the water buckets.

Great Course but beware

Hardest course in SAT, but in summer beware no water on course, bring some yourself. Also grab a wet towel no ball washers....or use puddles.
