Dallas
Old American Golf Club
Strategic lakeside championship golf
Old American is the best serious public golf in the Dallas set. It is firmer, tougher, and more architectural than most visitors expect. Where The Tribute is theatrical, Old American is the thinking round: wind, small greens, native grasses, and enough lake exposure to make club selection feel like negotiation.
