Course Tour

Truly the only real way to experience Big Sky is to play it. To breathe deep the crisp, clean mountain air. Then line up your shot, with the ever-present and massive Mount Currie always keeping watch over the Pemberton Valley.

However, if you can’t get here right now, or you simply can’t wait to get here, our golf course tour is the best way to understand the impressive layout and some tips and tricks how to play each hole on the course.

Mt. Currie

Number 1 is straight-away par 4 and a good warm-up hole, preparing you for a round of thoughtful shot-making. You'll find generous landing areas from the tee, encouraging you to swing away with your driver. A long to mid iron should get you to the green in regulation.

  • Blue 424
  • White 389
  • Red 337
Mt. Currie

Morning Mist

Find the fairway with your drive and you'll be hitting a mid or short iron approach. This dogleg left features many subtle slopes and undulations. Aim for the right side of this green; shots to the left will roll into the hazard.

  • Blue 376

Saxifrage

This benign looking par 3 holds a few surprises. The tee shot is slightly uphill to an off-centered back-sloping green. Favor the right center of the green; balls landing left or long are tough to get up and down.

  • Black 194
  • Blue 177
  • White 158

Purgatory

Number 4 has earned its name by causing more problems for more golfers. A good tee shot is essential for making par. Trouble abounds: a creek crosses the fairway in 4 different locations, 3-foot high fescue is growing along the right, trees line the left.

  • Black 600
  • Blue 520
  • White 480

Cupp's Hollow

The huge green at Number 5 may seem like welcome relief after the last hole, but don't lose your concentration for one moment. Much of the right side slopes off to a grassy collection area.

Back Alley

Leave your driver in the bag at Number 6, a short, tight straight away par 4. A safely played fairway wood or long iron leaves a short iron approach to a deep, narrow green. Multiple bunkers left and right put accuracy at a premium.

  • Black 349
  • Blue 330
  • White 307
  • Red 270

Lone Tree

Number 7 requires an accurate drive to avoid the right-side water and fescue left. From the flat fairway you'll have a good stance for hitting your mid to short iron approach.

  • Black 380
  • Blue 356
  • White 331
  • Red 287

Straight and Narrow

This straightaway par 4 features a well-bunkered fairway and a left side water hazard that comes into play on your approach. Aim right. The left side of the kidney bean shaped green slopes toward the water. Be careful of the mound that cuts across the middle of the green.

  • Black 393
  • Blue 360
  • White 331

Cayoosh

The front nine concludes with a good three shot par 5. Long hitters should be able to reach a collection area just short of the elevated green in two an ideal position for an up and down birdie.

  • Black 536
  • Blue 518
  • White 485
  • Red 420

Cloudraker

The backside greets you with a dogleg right par 4 with a very wide, accommodating fairway. Approaches hit from the right center have a good line into a wide but shallow, unprotected green.

Yardage

  • Black 453
  • Blue 418
  • White 389
  • Red 338

Cat Tail

Number 11 has a slightly elevated tee overlooking lush landscaping, bulrushes, and cat tails standing tall along the left side water hazard. The green sits side saddle to the tee box; distance control is vital to scoring well. Hit to the right center of the green.

Yardage

  • Black 161
  • Blue 155
  • White 142
  • Red 104

Great Divide

Get ready for another skills challenge. A creek splits the fairway and forces all but the longest hitters to play up. Because the creek cuts in front of the green, approach shots to the center of the green are the smart play.

Yardage

  • Black 434
  • Blue 417
  • White 382
  • Red 325

Ipsoot

A wide fairway and generous landing area for your second shot can make Number 13 your lucky scoring hole. Long hitters can go for the green in two.

  • Blue 504
  • White 474

Hang Time

As you step up to the tee, look up at the incredible sights of Big Sky's signature hole. Mt. Currie rises in the distance, surrounded by clouds that get caught in the adjacent mountain tops.

Yardage

  • Black 454
  • Blue 408
  • White 376
  • Red 318

Lac Morgan

Number 15 is a short dogleg left and requires careful club selection. Use a fairway wood from the tee and a short iron approach. The 2-tiered green is shallow from front to back; you could easily find yourself facing a demanding 2-putt to save par.

Yardage

  • Black 336
  • Blue 321
  • White 306
  • Red 257

Deep Breath

There's a good reason for this hole's name… you'll need to take one before hitting your drive and approach. A tight fairway, an even tighter landing area and a water hazard flowing along the entire right side will put most golfers' nerves to the test.

Yardage

  • Black 405
  • Blue 378
  • White 354
  • Red 286

Hibachi Ridge

Number 17 is the longest par 3 at Big Sky. Aim right to avoid the left side bunker. A mean ridge gives the green its distinctive character. Take your two putts and head for home with a feeling of satisfaction.

Yardage

  • Black 216
  • Blue 189
  • White 173
  • Red 157

Final Approach

A great finishing hole…this three shot par 5 will require solid, controlled shots to avoid the water hazard running the length of the hole and the monster wrap-around bunker protecting the green. A decent drive and mid-iron will set you up for a tricky wedge in.

Yardage

  • Black 546
  • Blue 505
  • White 479
  • Red 405
