The course at Hardscrabble was constructed in 1927. It was built on the side of a farm, which because of the rocky conditions, was known as a “hardscrabble” way to make a living — hence the name. Renovation was completed in 1998 by Jay Morrish and Associates. In past years, Hardscrabble Country Club hosted several prestigious amateur golf tournaments, including the USGA Senior Women’s Amateur, won by Alice Dye; the Trans-Mississippi Men’s Amateur, held twice and won by Mark Brooks and Bob Estes; the Trans-Mississippi women’s Amateur; the Women’s Southern Amateur; Western Women’s Amateur and the Western Junior Girls’ Amateur.

The course plays longer than the yardage indicates. Water hazards come into play on several holes, and numerous trees and sand bunkers have been incorporated into the course design. Golf Digest rated it as the 10th “Best in State” course for 1997-1998.
