Ben Geren Regional Park Golf Course - Course 3

This facility added nine new holes in the spring of 1997 and now has three nine hole courses that can be played in three eighteen hole combinations. The Silo Course is the newest layout and it features a links-style design with just a few immature trees at this time. The terrain as also hillier than the original holes. The Magnolia Course is the most demanding nine, while the Willow Course is more forgiving. Water hazards are distributed equally on all three courses, and nearly every hole is well protected by sand or water in play. The greens are medium to large in size and will accommodate the high amount of play. Every green is visible from the approach shot, but you will have a variety of creative shots on this course. One of the tougher holes is #7 on the Magnolia Course. This 196-yard, par 3, requires a tee shot to an elevated green, which is protected by four sand bunkers. "Golf Digest" rated the original Magnolia/Willow Course as the 8th "Best Public Course" in the state for 1996. The Silo Course has an extra set of tee, but they are not rated in combination with the other forward tees.
