George Bush, 41st President of the United States, officially opened the course at Shadow Hawk Golf Club in 1999. A Rees Jones design, with fairways routed around Pecan trees and several lakes, it sits on a 240-acre property near Richmond.
The following edited extract is taken from Daniel Wexler’s The American Private Golf Club Guide:
“Sharing a property with the neighboring Houstonian Hotel & Country Club [now Black Hawk Country Club], Shadow Creek is a typically demanding Rees Jones test whose calling cards are its 1st and 18th holes, the former a 560-yarder which doglegs left around two ponds, the latter a 540-yarder that can be reached with a spectacular carry over a wide expanse of lake.
In between, things are strikingly similar to the Houstonian [Black Hawk], particularly in the amount of water in play and the frequent use of oversized bunkering – though in this case, several holes actually offer fairway hazards placed in strategically meaningful positions.”
