Jersey Meadow Golf Course sits on part of
what was once a
1,236 acre ranch owned by Clark W. Henry. The ranch was originally home to the F
& M Dairy and one of the world's largest and best herds of Jersey dairy cattle.
In failing health Mr. Henry and Mr. Leroy Kennedy began a joint land venture
that took the old ranch and laid the groundwork for what would become the City of
Jersey Village. In the late 1950's
a parcel of land was sold and earmarked as an employee only course for Cameron Iron
Works. That course would become Jersey Meadow Golf Course.
In the late 1980's well known golf course
architect Carlton Gipson redesigned the course and helped make it the
outstanding test of golf it is today.
Now municipally owned by the City Of
Jersey Village, Jersey Meadow Golf Course has again undergone a face lift. In
the summer of 2004 new Champions Bermuda grass was installed on all
greens and the club house and driving range were also renovated.
Jersey Meadow Golf Course is a beautiful
course nestled among mature live oak groves. The course is a true test of golf,
in the traditional sense; a player will hit every club in the bag, be rewarded
for accurate golf shots and penalized for poor golf shots.
Recently renovated and newly rated by the
USGA, we invite you to come see for yourself.
We'd love to have you visit us!!
