Golf on The Palmer Course at La Cantera, designed by the master himself, Arnold Palmer.
Join special celebrity guest and former Dallas Cowboy, Jay Novacek, and mason contractors from around the country on Thursday, September 15 in San Antonio for a relaxing afternoon of golf on The Palmer Course at La Cantera, designed by the master himself, Arnold Palmer.

This 6,926-yard, par 71 masterpiece winds through the Texas Hill Country and offers the ultimate test of ability. Given the spectacular scenery, it may be hard to keep your eye on the ball. Among its signature holes is the par 3 No. 4, boasting dramatic waterfalls along the entire front edge of the green and is connected to the fairway by the Winnie Palmer Memorial Bridge, a tribute to Palmer's late wife. Arnie himself played a six-hole exhibition on the course during the grand opening and unabashedly exclaimed, "The Palmer Course at La Cantera is one-of-a-kind and a first-class golfing experience."
