The Amarillo Country Club golf course is a highly regarded set of eighteen holes laid out over a moderately accessible landscape. The course features 3 sets of teeboxes to keep things fun and challenging. A good number of trees line the fairways, and water hazards come into play on only a couple of holes. The hole to look out for is #6, which is a 349-yard, par 4 that requires a shot over a lake to very well-bunkered green. Overall, a fun, solid playing experience good for players of every skill level.
