Course Description
Northern Bear Golf Club is a Jack Nicklaus Signature Course located in Sherwood Park, Alberta, just 30 minutes from downtown Edmonton. Built on Jack Nicklaus' legendary tradition of designing prestigious and spectacular courses - Northern Bear is the latest Canadian addition to the Nicklaus family of outstanding golf courses.

Northern Bear is Jack's third Canadian Signature daily fee course, preceded by Toronto's Glen Abbey and Whistler's Nicklaus North. The "Bear" is a perfect blend of tree lined fairways, strategic bunker placements, five lakes and USGA standard greens all designed to offer the ultimate in playability to every golf enthusiast.
Despite his stature as a player - Nicklaus designs his courses for players of all skill levels. "Golf is a game of precision not strength" explains Nicklaus. That's why the course offers five sets of tees ranging from 5,800 to 7,400 yards and is designed to entice novices and experts alike. Five or more tee placements per hole, generous landing areas, large greens, firm, consistent sand, and visually pleasing with trees, ponds and wildlife. It's that Nicklaus magic that makes Northern Bear the great golf course it is.

In addition to hosting the annual Morgex Edmonton Open, Northern Bear was host to the Wayne Gretzky and Friends Ronald Mc Donald House Charity Golf Tournament in its inaugural year. It was during this tournament that Mike Weir, the 2003 Masters Champion, said “Northern Bear could easily host a championship tournament like the Canadian Open.”

Among a long list of accolades, including Western Canada’s Clubhouse of the Year 2005, Score Golf Magazine has recently named Northern Bear Golf Club as one of the top 100 courses to play in Canada, out of over 2,500.
