What is Pecan Hollow like to play?
A 73.5 rating on a par 72 tells you the back tees play a little harder than par for a scratch golfer, and a 129 slope puts it in the middle of the pack for difficulty. The course went through a renovation and reopened in November 2011, according to The Dallas Morning News.
Tips for your first round
- Warm up on the range. It's lit, so evening practice works most of the year.
- Play for position. A hybrid or fairway wood in the fairway beats a driver in trouble. Our best used hybrids guide covers good options.
- Spend ten minutes on the short game area. Most strokes are saved around the green.
- Walk or ride. Walking is allowed, and pull carts are available.
