Preston Trail Golf Club


I had the great opportunity to play Preston Trail Golf Club today.  I played with a good friend of mine Barney Adams.  The all men's golf club is just absolutely fantastic.  The course had been re-done over the last 18 months and opened back up in late November.
Preston Trails played host to the Byron Nelson Golf Tournament until 1984.  Byron Nelson had a hand in designing the course back in the 1960's.
Before the round Barney took me to the back of the range to check out the massive indoor teaching center. After having a look we visited with Lee Trevino for about 10 minutes while he was practicing on the back of the range.  We then headed back up to the top of the range and started warming up while visiting with Lanny Wadkins.
The round was very enjoyable with me posting a 77 and Barney playing very well from the back tees. After the round we adjourned to the grillroom for some lunch.  Dallas Stars center Mike Modano was just finishing up as we entered.
As always Barney was full of great stories and industry information.  He's been a good friend for long time and it's great to see him out playing golf again after having his knee replaced.  Tomorrow he's off to Pine Valley.  Barney definitely knows how to enjoy himself.
