Boot Ranch
In the category “Famous Golf Phrases,” Hal Sutton’s “Be the right club today” is legendary. He was talking to his 6-iron shot, the one that clinched his win at the 2000 Players. But those same words could apply to Boot Ranch, the Texas golf community 52 miles north of San Antonio. Following his stint as Ryder Cup captain in 2004, Sutton poured his heart, soul and capital into shaping this upscale development in trendy Fredericksburg, smack in the heart of Hill Country.
Amenities include a stunning, 55,000-square-foot clubhouse, a Ranch Club, a Lake Club, and the largest putting park in Texas. Boot Ranch has invited Sutton back to re-associate with his vision and tweak his stellar golf course, reducing the number of bunkers and carpeting the greens in TifEagle Bermuda.
Welcome back, Hal. After nearly a decade of disappointment, Boot Ranch is, indeed, the right club today.
