They say the most important shot in golf is the next one. So when is your next time to tee up? Maybe your golf swing is a legend in your own mind, or maybe you always looked for a bird when they mentioned an albatross- no matter what your expertise level is, it’s time to explore what’s new in the Arlington golf scene. Expect some of the best greens in North Texas. And by greens, we don’t mean kale.
Rangers and baseball fans alike will hit a home run, er hit a hole in one, at the Texas Rangers Golf Club, which is the only golf course in the world officially branded with Major League Baseball. The Texas Rangers Golf Club is located a scant 3 miles from the shiny, new home of the Texas Rangers, Globe Life Field, so game day fans can combine their love of both with a visit to this themed 18-hole course that boasts a swanky $24 million in renovations. Be excited about 7,000 yards of challenging water and sand bunker hazards. Or maybe golf isn’t your game? Then set up shop at a state-of-the-art clubhouse with a full-service restaurant, bar and pro shop so you can admire the view.
The Tierra Verde Golf Club is in the rolling hills of southwest Arlington and is the first golf course in Texas, and the first municipal course in the world, to be certified as an Audubon Signature Sanctuary. Tree huggers and golf enthusiasts alike will awe over the course’s seclusion and unparalleled natural beauty. Each hole has five sets of tees and a variety of features like water hazards, sand bunkers and fairways lined by majestic trees. If you are ready to be the new Jack Nicklaus (or you just want to beat your boss for once!), take a lesson taught by PGA/LPGA professionals and apprentices, and then unwind with lunch or dinner at the Ventana Grille, which is their full-service restaurant.
If you aren’t quite ready to strut your stuff on the greens, enjoy a leisurely day at the Golf Center of Arlington honing your skills with 2 miniature golf courses, a high-tech driving range & a craft beer bar. They are #1 Toptracer Range in Texas! Wait, what is that?! Basically, the technology lets you “play” on famous courses without all the pesky world travel. It delivers the same technology professionals use to enhance their own techniques. Or maybe you’re more of a Masters-level putt-putter? Well then grab your own version of a green jacket and bring your family and friends for a rousing round of mini golf on one of the two newly-remodeled courses. Enjoy 36 holes manicured around 7 waterfalls and delightful landscaping. Golf lessons for all ages are available to help your golf swing to become the hot new topic of conversation at work.
