Back in 2003, I played in a tournament at Harlingen Country Club with the late Jack Wilson. I made an eagle on a par 4 and saved the ball with the info written on it. Little did I know it would be my last eagle made since.
I had the opportunity to go back and while I did not make another eagle, I enjoyed playing this "new" (to me) course. I did not recognize the same hole: memory had failed me. I liked the course as a 50s style Texas course like the old Austin Country Club on Riverside where I played a lot growing up in Austin. There were a lot of houses around in the midcentury style, very low and flat. The area reminded me of another course in the area from the same time Rancho Viejo, also a small incorporated town with a golf course in the middle of it.
Some time ago, I tried to play a number of other local courses. This one should add to the list. I need to get serious about that goals and some that come to mind are:
Ebony Hills - Edinburg
Tierra Del Sol - Pharr
Seven Oaks - Mission
So there are 3 to get after this summer.
