About this course

Fritz Park is one of DFW's oldest courses — an Irving original from 1984 with Delaware Creek running OB through the layout and a pecan orchard giving the front nine its character. From the standard pins it plays 6,580 feet at par 58.

Free to play with concrete tees and Mach 2 baskets, it's notable for being roughly 95% handicap friendly — an old course with surprisingly good accessibility. The creek is the real hazard: it shows up exactly when you've forgotten about it.

A historic, characterful round that's been teaching DFW players for four decades.

§ The signature hole
Hole 14Par 4 · 701 ft

Hole 14 is the longest at Fritz at 701 feet — a par 4 where Delaware Creek makes its biggest appearance, crossing the fairway at exactly the wrong spot. Three clean shots, or a swim. It's the hole that's been defining rounds at Fritz since 1984.
