The Tribute Golf Club - Old Course

About
A Scottish-themed, links-style track that plays along the shores of Lake Lewisville, The Tribute one-ups the Tour 18 approach of modeling the world’s finest golf holes. Patterned his design after the revered holes of St. Andrews, Troon, Prestwick, etc., Tripp Davis created an immaculate track that rolls over terrain strikingly similar to the dunes and grasses over the Atlantic.
From the tips the course plays to a par 72 7,002 yards, but its most strikingly entertaining feature is its playability from the forward tees. In total, four sets of tees are available to even things out for the high handicappers.
St. Andrews is well represented on the first and last holes at The Tribute, where they offer the world’s largest fairway as a great way to start and finish your round.
Other notes: Don’t forget to inquire about the club’s seven guest rooms and available stay-and -play packages. The facility has hopes of opening another 18 and an adjoining hotel sometime in the near future.
Getting there : From 75 Expressway, take Hwy. 121 west to 423 (main street of The Colony). Turn right (north) to Boyd Road. Turn left, then drive 2.5 miles to the clubhouse.

Slow Greens
One of my favorite courses in DFW but this round put a bad taste in my mouth due to the greens being extremely slow and poor setup of the pins. Not handing out Scorecards b/c of Covid was annoying and the flags/pins are the metal kind in the hole where the ball bounces out unless you perfectly die the ball in the hole. I've played several other courses during the pandemic and Tribute's pins have been the worst. We played that if the ball hit the pin, it was good. For the money, they need to speed up the greens and fix the pin situation. Rest of the course was in great shape and the staff was very friendly.
Very rude staff
I when To the golf course join membership and may be play twilite game But I was in driving range with my friend to join how nice range and courses is. But two staff have cane very rude looking DOWN hitting ball range! I was very embarrassed! There is many golf course that very welcome ! For the greee. Fee staff is very rude !!!!!!!
Definitely "Links" style course
Clubhouse is top notch. Nice bar/pub area.
Pretty good service and friendly staff at ProShop.
Very nice practice facilities with range balls provided.
Putting green matched the speed and undulations of the course greens.
Prevailing SW winds (typical for this part of Texas) coming off of Lake Lewisville provide the windy conditions that are a good simulation of true Scottish Links style golf.
Generous fairways make the course fairly easy, although the huge tiered greens will steal a few strokes back.
All in all, this is a nice course and one for the short list if you've never played true links golf.
Once you've played it though, it's just another course. There are nicer courses in the area for less cost, so it drops down the list for me. Try to get it at a discount if you go.
Great Course...Worth Playing!
Me and a buddy were taking a golf trip to Dallas and wanted to play courses that are unique. This was on the top of the list. Amazing links style course that is a replica of St.Andrews and the views and layout were nothing short of awesome. Pace of play was great and had no issues. GPS cart was helpful since it is to the exact pin that day. Will definitely be playing again when I come back down here from Wisconsin.
Amazing staff fun course
It was very cold and the fog made it hard to see the holes but nevertheless the staff was great, very friendly and accomodating and it turned out to be a great golf day, will definitely be back.
I like the layout of course.
Good layout, nice staff. But the course was a bit too crowded.
Scotland in TX
I've lived in the DFW area for over 20 years and have played this course almost a 100 times. It has NEVER disappointed. From the moment you step onto the property you forget you are in north Texas. They have done a masterful job of replicating, not only the golf course, but also the clubhouse and the look and feel of the entire property. The conditions are reliably good with fast, but fair greens, well manicured tee boxes and well managed fairways. The price can get steep if you don't find a time through GolfNow but it's well worth it either way!
Just amazing
Please keep it up. Just an amazing place and you can tell the work that is put in to keep it amazing. Thank you
NIce view with
It was great time with wife in tribute golf course
When i come back dallars should try agin
Windy golf
It’s like playing next to an ocean with the wind coming off the lake
Tough in windy conditions
Course was in good shape but very tough pin placement and especially in very windy conditions.
Top quality course
The course is in great shape, excellent fairways and the greens are running really true. If your looking to treat yourself to a nice round, book a tee time for sure
Great Course-Beautiful
Beautiful course. Perfect greens and bunkers. Great conditions all around. Priced just right at the afternoon rate. I’ll be back and will definitely tell my friends they have to play here.
Challenging course. Breaking 80-90 is a decent score here.
Great Course
Fairways and greens were in great shape. Maybe because of college football, pace of play was great. Only negative comment might be a few pin placements.....
Good experience, could have been better!
Course was in great shape. Greens were amazing!
There was no drinking water all the course! All water station jugs were empty. This is not acceptable at a course that has so many great things going for it.
Nicer courses in the area for less cost?? Please share.
