Lee Trevino "Why I Mow My Own Yard..."

Nestled along the scenic banks of the Guadalupe River, Riverside Golf Course in Victoria, Texas, offers a tranquil yet challenging escape for golfers of all skill levels. With its rich history, strategic layout, and welcoming atmosphere, Riverside has become a beloved destination for locals and visitors alike. A Layout That Blends Nature and Strategy Originally designed by Ralph Plummer in 1945, Riverside’s 18-hole, par-72 course stretches across 6,579 yards of mixed terrain. The layout combines tree-lined fairways, rolling hills, and water hazards that demand thoughtful shot placement. I found that out firsthand when I played there on my way traveling to Houston several weeks ago. The course is divided into the classic “Red” and “White” nine-hole loops, each offering its own rhythm and challenges. Golfers will find four sets of tees, making the course accessible to beginners while still offering enough complexity to keep seasoned players engaged. The fairways are framed by mature oak and pecan trees, and wildlife sightings adding a peaceful, parkland feel to the round. Riverside’s standout feature is its signature par-3 island green, a hole that is mentally demanding. Surrounded by water, this hole challenges players to dial in their accuracy and trust their swing. It’s the kind of hole that sticks in your memory long after the round is over—equal parts thrill and intimidation. Whether you stick the green or find the water, the island hole is a rite of passage at Riverside and a favorite among regulars. Riverside isn’t just about the course—it’s about the full golfing experience. The facility offers a range of amenities designed to make your visit comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable: Driving Range & Practice Areas: Warm up or sharpen your skills with a full-length range, short game area, and putting green. Pro Shop: Stocked with apparel, and accessories, the shop is staffed by knowledgeable professionals ready to assist. Clubhouse: A relaxed space to unwind post-round, featuring views of the course and river. It’s a great place to enjoy a cold drink before or after your round. Riverside Golf Course is the only open for play golf course in Victoria so if you’re staying for the weekend or just passing through and need to get a golf fix, stop in, you’ll enjoy the ride.  Visit www.playriversidegc.com or call 361-573-4521.

The line above from one of most read books of the 20th century could easily have been a mantra for the developers of Rockin’ J Ranch, the Hill Country community that was founded on old fashioned ideals and solid, core values. It was the land that drew Colonel Lee Roper, founder of Rinco – the parent company of Rockin’ J Ranch – to the region and enamored him to the site about four miles south of Blanco and about a half-hour north of the San Antonio city limit. “We enjoy it here,” said the 95-year-old Roper, who moved to the Canyon Lake area from El Paso in 1980. “As we were told when we first came here, the Texas Hill Country is some of the most sought-after property in the United States. The land that became Rockin’ J Ranch is 45 minutes from metropolitan areas like Austin and San Antonio, but we are light years away in tranquility.” The unique livability of Rockin’ J Ranch helps residents get away from it all while sacrificing nothing as far as amenities and convenience. It is a fully gated community whose original ranch presence was preserved by incorporating some of the 150-year old homes and landmarks into the community’s clubhouse and the golf course design. “Our location is one of our greatest selling points and has become even more so over the life of this community,” said Ryan Brubaker, the long-time sales manager at Rockin J’ Ranch. The community wasplated on a wide series of hills and plateaus amongst rolling fields of flowers and stands of oak and cedar trees. The natural land offers habitat to all kinds of wildlife, perfect for great photography and seclusion and a desired quality of life that’s hard to match. One of the unique features of Rockin’ J Ranch is its use of a centralized water and sewer system rather than the well water and septic fields employed in the majority of other Hill Country developments. Less than 10 percent of the original 1,800 homesites in the 1,064-acre community are still available for purchase and there’s no slowdown in sight for sales. You can still buy land at Rockin’ J Ranch land on a handshake agreement and – if you put 50 percent down – take three years to pay off that parcel with zero interest. And there’s no deadline on building a home on your property here because Rinco of Texas, Inc., the developer of Rockin’ J Ranch and 23 other communities around the region, is in the land business and is not a home builder. One of Rockin’ J Ranch’s top amenities is Vaaler Creek Golf Club, the centerpiece of the community and one of the top- ranked public golf courses in the Austin-San Antonio corridor. All real estate sales include basic membership to the golf club. The course was the first signature design by Michael Lowry, who fashioned a much-tougher-than-its-carded 6,874- yard, par-72 track among live oak and cactus. Lowry routed the layout along the rolling, scrub brush-filled prairies. Throughout the round a golfer will play through many cool features such as ponds, sand hazards of various sizes, elevated tee shots and wavy, tree-lined fairways. Both nines at Vaaler Creek GC offer far-reaching views of the surrounding region and the generous homesite setbacks mean that the the houses near the course are mostly out of sight and unobtrusive, adding to the course’s isolated feel.

Advance Golf Partners purchases Gleannloch Pines in Spring A new era has officially begun for one of Northwest Houston’s most cherished golf courses. Gleannloch Pines Golf Club in Spring was acquired by Advance Golf Partners in June, ushering in exciting upgrades, a refreshed brand identity, and a renewed vision for the club’s future. As part of the transition, the club has unveiled a new name and logo, now officially known as Gleannloch Golf Club. The rebrand modernizes the club’s look and feel while honoring the history and natural beauty that have made it a fixture in the Spring-Klein community just south of The Woodlands, for more than two decades. Rebranding for the Future The name change—dropping “Pines”—is meant to broaden the club’s appeal while keeping its deep ties to the residential community it is located in. A sleek new logo accompanies the change, signaling a fresh start and a focus on elevating the member and guest experience. “This club has tremendous potential,” said Advance Golf Managing Partner Josh Smith. “We’re excited to preserve everything that makes Gleannloch special while making meaningful improvements that elevate the experience for all. The new name and logo reflect the fresh start and long-term commitment we’re bringing to the table.” Major Renovations Underway Advance Golf is already investing heavily in improvements, starting with a $1 million-plus renovation of the clubhouse and facilities. Key upgrades include: A brand-new bar, expanded dining room, and dedicated Kid’s Zone Major enhancements to the golf course and practice facilities New membership offerings tailored to diverse interests and budgets Expanded community outreach and partnerships These changes are aimed at creating a vibrant, family-friendly hub for both avid golfers and social members. Meet the New Leadership Team Alongside the new ownership, Gleannloch Golf Club is welcoming a seasoned leadership team that brings decades of experience in golf operations and course management. Ian Hicks – General Manager Born and raised in a small town in Pennsylvania, Ian earned his associate degree in golf complex management and operations from the Golf Academy of America in Myrtle Beach. He began his career as an assistant at a private club in Northeast Pennsylvania before relocating to North Texas, where he joined Advance Golf at Sky Creek Ranch Golf Club in Keller. Over the past seven years, Ian has held multiple positions at both Sky Creek Ranch and Westridge Golf Club in the Dallas–Fort Worth area. His proven track record in operations, member relations, and staff leadership positions him to lead Gleannloch into its next chapter. Josh Brewer – Golf Course Superintendent A Texas native and 1994 graduate of Western Texas College in Snyder, Josh has dedicated his career to golf course maintenance across the state. Married with two children—one living locally in Houston and working alongside him at the club—Josh brings extensive experience and a passion for exceptional playing conditions. He previously served as superintendent at Raveneaux Country Club and, most recently, at Houston National. “Working on golf courses in the Houston area, you never know what Mother Nature has planned,” Josh says. His expertise and attention to detail are already helping elevate Gleannloch’s course conditions. A Legacy Course, Reimagined Designed by Jay Riviere, Gleannloch’s 27-hole layout is known for its undulating greens, strategic bunkers, and mature tree lines that evoke the feel of courses in Scotland and Ireland. With fresh leadership, major investment, and a bold vision, Gleannloch Golf Club is poised to build on that legacy and reestablish itself as a top golf destination in the Houston area. A Recommitment to Spring’s Golf Community For residents of Spring and surrounding areas, this change is more than a rebrand—it’s a renewed commitment to quality, service, and community connection. With construction underway and new programs on the horizon, Gleannloch Golf Club is ready to welcome a new generation of golfers while honoring the traditions that made it great.   Gleannloch Golf Club’s new website:   https://www.gleannlochgolf.com/ Advance Golf Partners:   https://www.advancegolfpartners.com/   Dave Fanucchi is the Houston area Regional Publisher for The Texas Golf Insider .

Reservations are now available for dining beginning August 4. Kinder, LA Coushatta Casino Resort announces the highly anticipated grand reopening of its Big Sky Steakhouse on Monday, August 4. Big Sky Steakhouse, a beloved regional favorite for over 30 years, reopens with a complete renovation inspired by the Acadian region of Southwest Louisiana. “Our goal was to bring the best of Louisiana to a steakhouse setting,” said Chef Matthew Beard. “I grew up in this region and have a strong connection to the area, which is why leading the team at Big Sky Steakhouse is deeply personal to me. Our custom cuts, dry-aging process and commitment to Louisiana flavors make every dish stand out.” Chef Beard, a native of Oberlin, trained at Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts in Austin, Texas, and at the Le Cordon Bleu in Scottsdale, Arizona. Known for introducing inventive food concepts across the Coushatta property, he brings both culinary artistry and hometown pride to Big Sky’s kitchen. The updated menu, inspired by the storied culinary traditions of the surrounding parishes, features prime dry-aged cuts like the 24oz Cowboy Cut Bone-In Ribeye, Gulf seafood including pan-seared black drum and Red Snapper Calcasieu, and classic Louisiana dishes such as oxtail gravy over buttery mashed potatoes. Standout house favorites include fried green tomatoes with lump crabmeat and crawfish (harvested from Coushatta’s own farms), and the Big Sky Burger, crafted from dry-aged beef. The re-imagined restaurant space pays tribute to the region. Inside, guests will find a welcoming space rooted in Acadian design: repurposed 150-year-old doors, locally crafted woodwork, curated antiques and custom lighting. The new layout includes cozy booths for intimate dinners and a spacious dining room anchored by a grand fireplace. Much of the finish-out was completed by local tradespeople and artisans. The art throughout the space, was handpicked from the Louisiana area, including several pieces by New Orleans-based fine art photographer Frank Relle. The new Mirror Bar serves as a dazzling focal point in the new space. The back bar features over 40 antique mirrors, each carefully sourced from across the South. The Mirror Bar offers the full dining menu along with craft cocktails like the Smoked Old Fashioned (accented with oak smoke) and the dramatic Voodoo Smoked Tiki Dreams, featuring layered rums, smoked bubbles, and a flaming garnish.

Men’s golf attire has evolved significantly from the 19th century to today. In the 19th century, golfers wore formal and restrictive clothing, such as tweed jackets, waistcoats, high-collared shirts, and knickerbockers (knee-length trousers) paired with wool socks. Flat caps or bowler hats provided sun protection, while leather shoes with hobnails offered grip. Although stylish, this attire prioritized etiquette over comfort. In the early 20th century, men’s golf fashion became more practical. The 1920s embraced a relaxed yet elegant style with high-waisted, wide-legged trousers (Oxford bags) and single- or double-breasted jackets. Knitted sweaters, cardigan vests, and plus-fours gained popularity, while dress shirts with detachable collars, patterned ties, fedora hats, and two-tone Oxford shoes contributed to a refined yet comfortable look. By the 1970s, golf attire became more colorful and expressive. Polyester polo shirts, plaid pants, and wide-legged trousers were common, while knit vests, windbreakers, and belted shorts provided flexibility. Athletic-style golf shoes with spiked soles improved traction, and caps or visors became standard accessories. Today, men’s golf fashion blends style and performance. Moisture-wicking fabrics, breathable materials, and tailored fits enhance comfort and mobility while maintaining a polished, professional look. Polo shirts in a variety of colors and patterns are paired with tailored shorts or pants for a modern, athletic fit. Spikeless golf shoes offer traction, and accessories like caps or visors provide sun protection. The focus is on functionality, ensuring that golf attire is not only stylish but also enhances performance on the course.
