Onion Creek
The Deal Caddy is old enough to remember when today’s Champions Tour was called the Senior Tour, and dag-nabbit, I liked it that way. Actually, I think the new moniker better suits those golf greats, who, well past age 50, continue to thrill galleries. And the course where the Champions Tour was born remains a vital part of Austin’s golf scene.
I’m talking about storied Onion Creek, a private club that’s inviting your twosome to play 18 holes, with cart and range balls, for $95. Redeem this generous offer Tuesday through Thursday after 10:00 a.m., or Friday through Sunday and holidays after 12:00 p.m. The package carries a retail tag of $190, so you save 50%.
Onion Creek was founded in 1974 by three-time Masters champ Jimmy Demaret, one of golf’s most colorful characters. Demaret designed the original 18 holes but didn’t claim much credit. “I simply followed the natural features of the land,” he said, and there’s no evidence to the contrary. Holes rise and fall, pitch and roll through lightly wooded glades, with gentle doglegs rewarding—but not requiring—well-shaped shots. The inaugural Legends of Golf tourney was played here in 1978, which later, of course, gave rise to the Senior Tour.
The club later added a third nine, but it is anything but a third wheel. Drawn up by Austin’s own Ben Crenshaw and partner Bill Coore, Onion Creek’s North course displays the pair’s trademark minimalist style with emphasis on the ground game. Best of all, it fits seamlessly with both the landscape and Demaret’s initial 18.
Golfers of all eras and stripes enjoy Onion Creek’s laid-back, history-soaked atmosphere. And it doesn’t take a miser to appreciate a deal like this one. Grab it today, dag-nabbit, and make your Deal Caddy a happy old man.
