Some maintain that the scenery around Amarillo is flat and mundane, yet set in the rolling plains around Amarillo Creek you’ll find an impressive links-style course with dramatic elevation changes, three lakes, a creek, a natural waterfall, and a track that totally envelops its natural surroundings.
Many say La Paloma Course at Tascosa Golf Club is the most difficult course in the area. The superbly conditioned bent-grass greens are lightning-fast. For a links course the fairways are surprisingly narrow, and loaded with fairway bunkers. Most greens are surrounded by water and/or bunkers.
The drab Panhandle scenery livens up on the back with a multitude of natural rock outcroppings. Hole 16 is the most spectacular: a 220-yard par 3 that requires a full carry over the water hazard to a big green fronted by a rock wall.
Getting there : From I-40 west, exit Western St. and drive north 5 miles to Fairway Dr. Turn left and continue .75 mile to the course entrance on the right side of the street.
