Nearby at the massive two-acre putting course known as The Dance Floor, die-hards removed leather covers and compared $500 flat sticks. Meanwhile, business at the $5 putter rental was brisk as formerly non-golfing significant others joined in for the stress-free fun of after-dinner putting contests.<\/p>\n Advertisement 2<\/p>\n This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.<\/p>\n THIS CONTENT IS RESERVED FOR SUBSCRIBERS ONLY<\/p>\n Subscribe now to read the latest news in your city and across Canada.<\/p>\n Unlimited online access to articles from across Canada with one account.Get exclusive access to the Toronto Sun ePaper, an electronic replica of the print edition that you can share, download and comment on.Enjoy insights and behind-the-scenes analysis from our award-winning journalists.Support local journalists and the next generation of journalists.Daily puzzles including the New York Times Crossword.<\/p>\n SUBSCRIBE TO UNLOCK MORE ARTICLES<\/p>\n Subscribe now to read the latest news in your city and across Canada.<\/p>\n Unlimited online access to articles from across Canada with one account.Get exclusive access to the Toronto Sun ePaper, an electronic replica of the print edition that you can share, download and comment on.Enjoy insights and behind-the-scenes analysis from our award-winning journalists.Support local journalists and the next generation of journalists.Daily puzzles including the New York Times Crossword.<\/p>\n REGISTER \/ SIGN IN TO UNLOCK MORE ARTICLES<\/p>\n Create an account or sign in to continue with your reading experience.<\/p>\n Access articles from across Canada with one account.Share your thoughts and join the conversation in the comments.Enjoy additional articles per month.Get email updates from your favourite authors.<\/p>\n THIS ARTICLE IS FREE TO READ REGISTER TO UNLOCK.<\/p>\n Create an account or sign in to continue with your reading experience.<\/p>\n Access articles from across Canada with one accountShare your thoughts and join the conversation in the commentsEnjoy additional articles per monthGet email updates from your favourite authors<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n Did I mention this was a Wednesday night?<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n There are plenty of things that stand out about a golf trip to one of America\u2019s newer premier golf destinations, but the fact Omni PGA Frisco doesn\u2019t turn into a ghost town at 9 p.m. is certainly worth mentioning. The golf world is full of great spots that fill you with wonder while the sun is up, only to leave you with little more than a row of empty Yuengling bottles and dreams of a morning tee time once night settles in.<\/p>\n The new home of the PGA of America impressively ticks all the boxes for golfers looking for a modern destination, to the point that it seems like they\u2019ve taken best practices of top golf spots and combined them into one resort.<\/p>\n At the heart of any great resort is the golf, and PGA Frisco\u2019s Field Ranch offers something for all players. Aside from all the non-traditional fun, there are two 18-hole courses onsite with the major championship Fields Ranch East capable of testing the world\u2019s best players, and then there\u2019s Field Ranch West to maybe remind you what making a birdie feels like.<\/p>\n Monday Morning Golf<\/p>\n Thanks for signing up!<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n Advertisement 3<\/p>\n This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n But more on that in a moment.<\/p>\n Located a little more than half-an-hour north of Dallas, Frisco is a fast-growing suburb where you will find the headquarters of both the PGA of America and the Dallas Cowboys. Omni PGA Frisco opened to the public in 2023, the same year it hosted the Senior PGA Championship.<\/p>\n Any recent golf traveller has seen the trend of golf-adjacent activities popping up at popular destinations. Maybe a resort adds a top-tracer range, or indoor hitting bays, or a putting course, or a short course, or some simulators.<\/p>\n Or maybe a new destination like PGA Frisco just builds all of these from the beginning and drops it on a somewhat unexpecting golf world.<\/p>\n This isn\u2019t to say this came out of nowhere. Construction began in 2020 and word of the resort had been trickling through the golf community for years before that. But for buddy trip enthusiasts who have already hit many of the top venues and are looking to come up with their next landing spot, this Texas gem might still fly under the radar.<\/p>\n Advertisement 4<\/p>\n This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n That likely won\u2019t be the case for very long with resort set to host the 2027 PGA Championship, the 2029 Senior PGA Championship, and the 2031 KPMG Women\u2019s PGA Championship. But for now, Omni PGA Frisco is still very much a spot you can raise some eyebrows with among your golf pals.<\/p>\n In total, the resort has the two 18-hole courses, one 10-hole fully-lit short course, one of the largest real-grass putting courses in the world, 13 restaurants, plenty of shops, and a 500-room hotel with plenty of conference space if you\u2019re planning on making it a working golf trip.<\/p>\n Of course, it wouldn\u2019t be Texas if you didn\u2019t have opportunity for some barbecue. The first night of our trip we dined at the Ice House where platters of perfectly smoked meats and heaping sides left little room for plates or elbows on the outdoor picnic tables. If you can still move after eating, inside the Ice House are six hitting bays where you launch balls onto the Fields Ranch practice facility with Toptracer technology showing off your ball flight.<\/p>\n Advertisement 5<\/p>\n This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n As for the centerpiece of PGA Frisco, you better bring your A-game to the championship Fields Ranch East as it\u2019s been designed by Gil Hanse to offer a stern test every single day, and a diabolical one if the Texas wind is blowing. With championship tees that stretch to nearly 8,000 yards, the starter kindly told us to enjoy our day and expect to shoot five shots above our handicap.<\/p>\n For all its challenges that will thrill strong players, as long as you play the correct tees for your skill level the East course is great fun for all. There is almost nowhere to lose golf balls off the tee, which removes the constant digging into your bag that\u2019s been known to derail the positive energy of a round. The greens are small and the course is big, but challenging yourself is what this game is about. Fields Ranch East is walking-only except for medical exceptions and requires a caddy, who will come in handy all day as you navigate the exposed Texas terrain.<\/p>\n Over at Fields Ranch West, there is plenty more reward to go with your risk, and plenty more square footage of greens to aim for. The West course works its way along Frisco\u2019s Panther Creek, and with more than 75-feet of elevation changes it is more protected from the wind. The birdie opportunities at the Beau Welling designed West course pair quite nicely with its menacing big brother East course.<\/p>\n Advertisement 6<\/p>\n This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n With major championships already scheduled and seemingly inevitable Ryder Cups being teased, there is a feeling when visiting that you are getting a sneak preview of future moments in sports history.<\/p>\n One interesting thing about Omni PGA Frisco resort is that its success as a destination wasn\u2019t a simple two-foot putt. Yes, it had the backing and strength of the PGA of America, but it\u2019s not on the ocean or in the mountains. Nor is it links land, and it didn\u2019t have an historic name to lean on. This resort was built from the ground up with a big vision that had to be imagined from a blank canvas.<\/p>\n Impressively, the result is more than a collection of the latest golf trends. There is a sense of place and great energy at this somewhat unlikely venue. For all its future plans, Omni PGA Frisco already works as an incredibly well-thought out and beautifully executed resort for the modern golfer.<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n Share this article in your social network<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This section is Presented This section was produced by the editorial department.
