A new chapter in golf history unfolded June 14, 2001 with the official opening of Cowboys Golf Club in Grapevine, Texas. The world’s first NFL-themed golf course, Cowboys Golf Club debuted and continues to be the state’s premier daily-fee resort -style golf course.

The golf course inspires a sense of awe in its scenic beauty and ingenious design. Award-winning golf course architect Jeff Brauer and the construction team worked with the City of Grapevine and the Army Corps of Engineers to preserve the natural environment of the 159-acre site which is surrounded by forests of trees, not residential development. Players will be amazed by the dramatic elevation changes and magnificent views which are truly unique to the North Texas area.

The 18-hole, par 72 championship course features five sets of tees, and every hole offers variety and contrast making the course more enjoyable for all levels of players. An oasis of trees, waterways and natural habitats leaves you with a thousand impressions and a true resort experience. The course also features a massive practice range and a star-shaped putting green.
