Shary Municipal Golf Course is ranked in the top 25 of Municipal Golf Courses in Texas and is a 27-hole golf course with a full service driving range that is open everyday, except for Christmas Day. Daily play can be by tee time reservation or on a walk-in basis. Most golfers walk the course, but a new fleet of 70 electric carts, as well as pull carts, are ready to go. Private carts are welcomed for a nominal fee. Daily green fees are competitively priced, as are annual green fees of $525. The golf course is the number one tourist attraction for the City of Mission during the winter months.
The Golf Shop offers a complete selection of golf equipment and golf attire for men and women. Special orders are accommodated quickly. Other services provided are golf handicaps and bag storage. The entire operation of the Shary Municipal Golf Course is managed through a Golf Director.
