Biography

Established in 1920, Brook Hollow enjoys a strong reputation as one of Dallas’ most historic and exclusive private golf clubs. The origins of the golf course go back to when Dallas businessman Cameron Buxton asked his friend A.W. Tillinghast to find a location for a golf course in the Dallas area. Tillinghast chose a then rural setting beside a branch of the Trinity River west of Dallas. At the time, the course was built on open and rolling farmland that is now surrounded by commercial properties due to the outward development of the metropolitan area. Brook Hollow remains a stately and peaceful oasis; a refuge for its members among the hustle and bustle of the city. Brook Hollow’s A.W. Tillinghast-designed golf course has hosted championships of significance over nine decades.

The challenging golf course layout features tree-lined fairways and a seventh hole that Ben Hogan rated as his favorite number 7 in the country. It is one of the few clubs that does not take tee times due to the small size of its membership. First and foremost, Brook Hollow is a golf club, and despite all of its other world class amenities, golf is of foremost importance to its members.
