In a twist of irony, the original, very-flat course was named the “Hill Course” in honor of Captain Arthur S. Hill, the Commanding Officer at Moffett when the facility opened in 1959. Designed by Bob E. Baldock, the course began as a 9-hole venue before expanding to 18-holes 10 years later. Originally managed by the Navy, Air Force, and then NASA, The Golf Club at Moffett Field is now managed by OB Sports/Troon Golf.
In 2007, improvements were made to recontour terrain, add partial concrete cart paths, bunker restoration, and greens modification. The golf course remains at par 72, playing to a maximum of 6,575 yards from the challenging blue tees.
