The Covey at Big Easy Ranch Receives Top Honor as Best New Private Course by Golf Digest

The Covey at Big Easy Ranch received the prestigious honor of Golf Digest’s Best New Private Course. This accolade not only recognizes the course's exceptional design but also cements Big Easy Ranch’s status among the nation's elite golfing and sporting clubs. 

Nestled within the 2,000-acre hunting preserve of Big Easy Ranch west of Houston in Columbus, Texas, The Covey offers golfers a serene journey through the state's picturesque landscapes. Renowned architect Chet Williams masterfully utilized the site's natural features—including rolling hills, ridges, and ravines—to design a layout that is both challenging and harmonious with its surroundings. It incorporates natural elevation changes, tree-lined fairways, and meandering creeks to create a seamless golfing experience.

Golf Digest lauded The Covey's distinctive features and innovative green complexes, which are "flanked and fronted with deep, staggered bunkers, and with strong putting contours that create multiple internal levels and severe false fronts."  

“What an honor to be recognized as the best new private course by Golf Digest, the leading publication in our industry, and the #1 new and top 10 overall golf course in Texas by The Dallas Morning News,” said Big Easy Ranch owner Billy Brown. “Our shared vision has transformed Big Easy Ranch into a premier sporting club like no other that blends world-class hunting, fishing and outdoor amenities with exceptional golf.”
