A COMPLETE GOLF PROGRAM
FOR THE ALAMO CITY AREA
This
package includes all lodging, golf and related taxes:
 Day
1 - Arrive
San Antonio for checkin at The
LaQuinta Inn and Suites Northwest. Play The Quarry Golf Club enroute
to hotel.
 THE QUARRY GOLF CLUB
Perhaps
no other city can boast of a site less than ten minutes from downtown
that
would match that of The Quarry Golf Club, a Keith Foster design opened
in 1993 that is one of the most unusual layouts anywhere. At 6,740
yards
from the back tees, its moderate length may lull you into a false sense
of security. Make no mistake about it, this is a very difficult golf
course
that changes personality in a hurry.
The
watery, treeless front nine lies
between an adjacent expressway, railroad tracks and an office complex
--
not exactly a serene golf experience. Tall heather abounds, adding an
esthetic
touch with a propensity to swallow golf balls.
An
entirely different experience
awaits as you descend into the quarry for the back nine. It's one
beastly
hole after another, with carries over waste bunkers, narrow fairways,
and
400 extra yards.
The setting, however is something
to behold. The sheer walls of the quarry extend up to a rim lined with
luxury homes, and the factory where limestone was once converted into
concrete
is now the upscale Quarry Market mall. It's urban renewal, with a touch
of The Flintstones' Bedrock.
Day
2 - Preferred tee time
at Silverhorn Golf Club.
SILVERHORN GOLF CLUB
 SilverHorn
Golf Club sets a high standard. Walking down the fairways, the golfer
sees
live oak and mesquite trees, gently rolling holes and straightforward
shot
values.
SilverHorn
can play up to 6,922 yards,
but strategy is rewarded more than distance. The terrific set of par
fives
are three-shotters for all but the longest hitters. While the 556-yard
sixth is considered by many to be the signature hole, the 524-yard
18th,
with a pond fronting the green, is the shortest par five and can make a
$2 Nassau very intriguing.
Architect Randy Heckenkemper, a former
designer for Weiskopf and Morrish, has earned a reputation for building
low-key tracks that maximize their surroundings. Although SilverHorn is
inside a housing development, the dense vegetation makes for
well-carved
holes that appear very natural.
Day
3 - Preferred tee time
at Canyon Springs Golf Club.
CANYON
SPRINGS GOLF CLUB
The 7,077-yard layout was
designed by Thomas Walker. Don't worry if you've never heard of him; if
this place reaches its potential, you'll surely be seeing more of his
name
in the future.
Canyon Springs
is set in
a scenic oak forest covering a series of hills. The isolated routing
makes
you feel as if you're on top of a private mountain, as no two fairways
run parallel. Some might expect a tricked-up course with wild elevation
swings and long forced carries. Instead, the design blends in with its
environment instead of taking advantage of it.
There were some heated discussions
during construction on whether or not to leave some strategically
placed
trees, and in the end, the correct decisions were made. The result is a
thinking person's layout where placement off the tee is critical and
the
huge greens can make for wildly different pin positions. One of the
most scenic courses in San Antonio, this stop will surely please all!
Day
4 - Preferred tee time
at The Bandit Golf Club (New
Braunfels, Tx.).
 THE
BANDIT GOLF CLUB
The
Bandit appeals to all golfers but especially to the purist. With water
in play on 12 holes and 100 foot elevation differentials and pristine
condition
this course offers an unforgetable experience. Not a single hole is
embraced
by housing. The Bandit is a delightful "change of pace" experience
waiting
for the golfer who enjoys a challenge of some unforgettable holes while
enjoying the twisting, rolling terrain of the historical Texas Hill
Country.Whether
its the breathtaking views,
the pristine condition of the course or the first class treatment by an
accommodating staff you will remember The Bandit!
Day 5 - Preferred tee time
at La Cantera Golf Club.
LA
CANTERA GOLF CLUB
 La Cantera has been
the site of the PGA
Tour's Texas Open since 1995. Located on the north side of
town,
this thrill-a-minute design by Tom Weiskopf and Jay Morrish has made
quite
a bit of noise since its debut. It was a Golf Magazine "Top 10 You Can
Play" pick for 1995 and continues to set its sights high, with a
500-room
Westin grand class hotel.
Speaking of roller coasters, the
seventh hole provides one of the most remarkable scenes in all of golf.
The tee shot on this 316-yard par four drops 80 feet down to the
fairway,
set in the bottom of an old limestone quarry. However, your eyes seem
glued
to what sits to the left of the hole: The Fiesta Texas Amusement Park,
complete with "The Rattler," a huge wooden roller coaster directly on
the
other side of a fence from the green. Every 40 seconds or so, your
concentration
is interrupted by the shrieks of yet another group of thrill seekers as
they cascade down the coaster's initial drop.
In
addition to the championship 18-hole
Resort Course at La Cantera, the resort gained another 18 holes
in the spring of 2001 with the opening of the Palmer
Course at La Cantera,
designed by golfing legend Arnold Palmer. The resort’s acclaimed Golf
Academy
features state-of-the-art equipment, a talented staff, and specially
designed
corporate and group programs.

Opened
in 1997, SilverHorn Golf Club of Texas has earned
the reputation
as the best upscale daily fee golf course in San Antonio.
SilverHorn
has been ranked among “The Top 25 Courses in Texas” by The Dallas
Morning
News. Golf Digest listed SilverHorn in the “Places to Play” guide. Not
only is SilverHorn Golf Club of Texas recognized as being the best in
the
state…it is also considered as one of the most challenging layouts in
San
Antonio. Time and time again SilverHorn offers a unique, stimulating
challenge
to golfing enthusiasts of every skill level. The
distinct Hill Country character
of SilverHorn can be credited to designer Randy Heckenkemper
along
with PGA Tour Professionals Willie Wood and Scott Verplank.
SilverHorn’s
tree-lined fairways, strategic use of sand and water, and beautifully
framed
contoured greens make this par 72 course a treasured Hill Country
experience
long remembered.

TEXAS OPEN
|
La Cantera has
been the site of the PGA Tour's Texas Open since 1995. Located
on
the north side of town, this thrill-a-minute design by Tom Weiskopf
and Jay Morrish has made quite a bit of noise since its debut.
It
was a Golf Magazine "Top 10 You Can Play" pick.
The 7,001-yard
layout is spread
over three hilltops, serving up views of the surrounding terrain. Some
holes seem like a game of "can-you-top-this," with dramatic elevation
changes,
carries over ravines, and risk-reward opportunities. But La Cantera
pulls
this off without being gimmicky because it's the roller-coaster
property,
not the design, that causes the drama.
Speaking of
roller coasters, the
seventh hole provides one of the most remarkable scenes in all of golf.
The tee shot on this 316-yard par four drops 80 feet down to the
fairway,
set in the bottom of an old limestone quarry. However, your eyes seem
glued
to what sits to the left of the hole: The Fiesta Texas Amusement Park,
complete with "The Rattler," a huge wooden roller coaster directly on
the
other side of a fence from the green. Every 40 seconds or so, your
concentration
is interrupted by the shrieks of yet another group of thrill seekers as
they cascade down the coaster's initial drop.
