About Boot Ranch:

Set in the scenic Texas Hill Country, this high-end private golf course was designed by Hal Sutton. Consistently ranked in the top 10 every year in the state of Texas by Dallas Morning News and ranked as a top residential golf course in the country by Golfweek, we place a high standard of conditioning on the golf course. #10 is ranked as a top golf hole and is featured in the movie Seven Days in Utopia.

We boast a 34-acre practice park that has 3 driving range tees, a short game chipping area and three par 3 holes to get even more practice in. On top of that we have an auxiliary par 3 and a 2-acre putting park that is played as an 18-hole par 2 putting course. Here, players have ample opportunities to work on their game with very high-end amenities.

Boot Ranch is a full-service country club fit with a Ranch Club, Racquet Club, Lake Club, that is also going through extensive renovation and addition, and a Fit Club. There is something to do for the whole family here at Boot Ranch.

Why Boot Ranch? Boot Ranch is the perfect place for someone to join the team and use it as a launching pad. We are all well connected in the industry and place a high standard on our work daily. Here you will be exposed to the high-end warm season conditioning of the golf course, while also ensuring the members have complete satisfaction during their round.
