Houston Golf

Houston, Texas is included in well known golf destinations. The old world style of Brae Burn Country Club came up in conversations invariably when I was talking with golfing aficionados.

A traditional layout and one of the city’s oldest, established in 1926, this course puts a premium on shot placement off the tees. There are opportunities for long hitters to cut off some yardage but not without risk of posting a big number. A true thinker’s course.

Originally designed by architect John Bredemus in 1926, the course was redesigned in 1991 by Carlton Gipson. Today the course’s dramatic elevation changes and rolling character — unexpected in a location so close in — has earned BraeBurn the distinction of being one of the few sites in Texas to be chosen to host both a U S Open and a U S Amateur qualifying tournament in one year.
