Texas Golf: The Best in the Lone Star State - Taylor Trade Publishing

Discover Texas Golf in Rich Color and Detail

Texas Golf: The Best in the Lone Star State invites readers to explore a century of links, courses, and climbing fairways across the Lone Star landscape. More than 800 copies have circulated through the varied terrains of Texas, bringing to life the geometry of greens, the whispers of wind through pines, and the personalities who shaped the sport in this region. The book blends spectacular color photography with thorough course histories, concise descriptions, and practical playing information that can help readers plan their next round or road trip to a Texas course.

The pages capture both landscape and intimate moments—the gleam of morning dew on a rough, the echo of distant clubhouse announcements, and the texture of cart paths underfoot. Visitors will notice how each course is framed by its surrounding scenery, from prairie open spaces to rolling hill country and coastal highlights. The photography is complemented by historical notes that place courses within the broader story of Texas golf, past regrets and celebratory victories alike.
