Jacksboro Country Club

The Jacksboro CC, which dates back to the 1920s, is an old course that rolls through some hills and offers water hazards on only two holes. The 9 holes play to a par 35, and it’s a stout 3,397 yards from the blue tees. The only par 5 is the opener, going 525 yards, but the remaining par 4s are all mostly long and challenging, including the 480-yard 2nd hole. The best birdie opportunities here are the par 3s: short irons from the whites, long irons from the blues, but really no major problems if you strike it well.

Getting there : From Fort Worth, take Hwy. 199 west, then turn right on Hwy. 148 and head directly to the course.
