Fall is one of the best times to play golf in North Texas. The long, hot summer finally gives way to cooler days, and the courses take on a calm, relaxed feel that makes every round more enjoyable. The sun sits lower, the breeze is softer, and the pace of play seems to slow down just enough to remind you why you love the game. Still, fall golf comes with its own set of challenges. The weather changes quickly, the ground plays differently, and the leaves can make you question where your ball went even when you hit the fairway.

The DFW Elite Golf League Closet is off to a strong start. What began as a simple idea to collect extra golf gear for those who need it has already turned into something meaningful. In just a short time, we’ve received donations from generous golfers who found our website and wanted to help. So far, the Closet includes several sets of clubs, a golf bag, more than 700 golf balls, and a growing selection of clothing, shoes, and even a range finder.

Autumn in North Texas brings the kind of golf weather players wait for all year. The mornings are crisp, the breeze is steady, and the pace of play feels a little more relaxed. The heat finally gives way to comfort, and every round feels like a reward for getting through the long summer.
