“... there are few places in the world more extraordinarily beautiful and with as many challenges and pleasures as Western Canada... The more I traveled the world as a tour professional, the more I came to appreciate just how beautiful and special Western Canada is.”

From the remarkable Rocky Mountains to Alberta Prairies to the Pacific Ocean, this part of the world is truly something to be in awe of.

Spectacular Golf features an even mix of par 3s, par 4s and par 5s from a wide variety of course designers, including both Jack Nicklaus and Les Furber.
