Texas Golf Is Not What You Might Think At Horseshoe Bay
Date:November 10, 2024
As I stood on the very elevated 10th tee at Apple Rock Golf Course this past week, I faced a stretching panorama of distant rolling hills, bright blue lakes, and a lush green fairway. If I didn’t know any better, I would’ve guessed I was somewhere in Northern California or perhaps beautiful Kelowna, British Columbia. But this was Horseshoe Bay, Texas – roughly an hour west of Austin. And I incorrectly assumed Texas golf was all about flat brown courses that allowed me to putt from 80 yards out. So much for the famed Texas wedge.
