My group was having the discussion after golf and we were trying to name any courses in the Houston area that has a hole like that.

I believe that High Meadow Ranch may have one.

Thoughts ?

That was the first one I thought of. I believe it's the par 5 4th.

I just looked it up on the Grint to see what you are talking about. My first thought was, "This only looks like one green fairway, what is he talking about?......Holy shite, that's a green pond." Yeah, that is dumb. Finishing a round on a hole like that could give someone the last push to never play again.

That hole is a bear. I not sure that I have a favorite course at Kingwood, maybe the Lakes ?


Wolfdancer #18 in Bastrop has two options as well.

Highland Pines has a par 5 with split fairways on the back. Not sure which hole.

OB left side of left fw, but it’s the safer side. Water protects the right side fw that is narrower, but significantly shortens the hole.

That’s it. I’m a lefty high ball hitter, so I like to play a cut right at the trees that just falls left. Still gives me an iron in to reach it in 2, so there is no reason for me to take on the right side.

#5 at Texas Rangers Golf Club has a split/double fairway. You can try to carry the water to the left fairway or play it safe on the right.
