Dunes on the Red River.
Childress Hall sits on 2,400 acres of sandhills in the Texas Panhandle, where quartz dunes and canyon-like ravines rise above the Red River. Tom Doak's Upper Course crosses rolling dunes on the front nine and finishes along the riverbank and the tallest dunes, with very little earth moved.
I worked as a shaper on Tom's team over two trips in 2024. My work centered on holes 9, 10, 16 and 18.
“Early signs point to this being one of Doak's very best designs due to his exquisite use of the eclectic terrain.”Matt Rouches, The Fried Egg
