SAND HILLS GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB

What SAND HILLS GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB does

Sand Hills Golf & Country Club is a member-owned private country club founded in 1962 in Campbell, Texas, operating a single regulation 9-hole, 36-par golf course spanning 6,090 yards of Zoysia grass with sand and water hazards. Two sets of tees on the 9-hole layout enable 18-hole rounds. The club serves the local northeast Texas community through tiered membership programs, public green-fee play, food and beverage service at its on-site Bar & Grill, a swimming pool, an outdoor patio with fire pit, and a remodeled ballroom used for private events. No proprietary technology stack is present beyond standard golf course infrastructure; online tee times are managed through the third-party Teesnap platform.

Revenue is generated across six streams: recurring membership dues (individual and family tiers), pay-as-you-go green fees and cart rentals ($20–$50 per round), food and beverage sales from the public Bar & Grill and patio, facility rentals for weddings, reunions, and corporate events, golf tournament entry fees (Memorial Tournament, Icicle Classic, Glow Ball Scramble, Couples Scramble), and online gift cards. Pricing is uniformly unit-based with no enterprise contracts; member guests receive discounted rates when accompanied by a member. Distribution is direct-to-consumer: on-site play, on-site dining, online tee-time booking, and direct event inquiry via phone or website form.

Go-to-market is event-driven and community-led. The club hosts recurring tournaments, Friday noon luncheons, Bingo nights, pool parties, and themed dinners (Valentine Steak Night), supplementing public green-fee access and tournament entries with member social programming. Marketing relies on the club website, blog/event calendar, and local word-of-mouth rather than formal digital advertising. With approximately 6 employees, no disclosed financials, no funding history, no identified M&A or expansion activity, and a single physical location, this is a small-scale, locally anchored leisure and hospitality operation rather than a venture- or growth-stage technology business.

Broad incumbents

• Troon: Global golf and club-management company providing operations, hospitality, and agronomy services to hundreds of courses and country clubs. Comparable operating model in golf facility management, event hosting, and F&B, though typically contracted rather than member-owned.
• American Golf: Operates a national network of public and private golf facilities with food & beverage and event programming. Directly comparable business lines (green fees, F&B, tournaments, events) but at multi-course scale across major U.S. markets.
• Heritage Golf Group: Owns and operates private country clubs and golf communities, often acquiring member-owned clubs. Closely aligned with Sand Hills' member-owned country club profile in target operating model, though typically at larger club scale.
• KemperSports: Manages a portfolio of golf courses, country clubs, and sports clubs across the U.S. Comparable in course operations, membership programs, and event hosting, though at broader geographic and operational scale.
• Century Golf Partners: Operates and manages private clubs, golf courses, and country clubs nationwide. Comparable amenity mix (golf, dining, events) but serves upscale and high-volume clubs across multiple states.
• Invited (formerly ClubCorp): Operates one of the largest portfolios of private golf and country clubs, city clubs, and stadium clubs in the U.S. Highly comparable in core membership/country club business model but at vastly greater scale, with multiple courses and amenity-rich clubs.

Direct peers

• Dormie Network: Collection of private, member-focused golf clubs offering premium course access plus clubhouse amenities. Highly aligned with the member-owned country club concept, though at higher-end course quality and national membership reach.

Emerging players

• Topgolf: Golf entertainment venue combining technology-driven hitting bays with food, beverage, and event programming. Comparable on the F&B/event-hosting dimension but competes for casual and family-oriented leisure dollars rather than traditional rounds of golf.
• Five Iron Golf: Urban indoor golf simulator venues with full bars and event programming. Targets the same casual golfer and corporate event market as a public-access country club's bar/grill and event offerings, though with a different delivery model.

Others

• Golf Galaxy (Dick's Sporting Goods): National golf retail and services chain offering equipment, lessons, and custom fittings. Not a direct operator, but a destination for golfers in Sand Hills' trade area and an indirect competitor for share-of-wallet among recreational golfers.
