Assistant Golf Professional: Bighorn Golf & Country Club
Bighorn Golf & Country Club is conveniently located only 5 minutes from downtown Kamloops. Nestled along the desert-like bases of Mounts Peter and Paul, it blends amidst gently rolling hills and gently carved canyons, boasting sweeping views of the Thompson River valleys. Bent grass fairways, natural sand dunes and gently contoured greens meander seamlessly through a tranquil community and are surrounded by fragrant sagebrush. This par 72 6,800-yard desert golf course offers five tee boxes in which to choose from, thus providing golfers of all skill levels enjoyment and challenge in their game. Beginning this winter, Bighorn is embarking on an exciting new venture, the opening of The Bunker at Bighorn, a three bay simulator setup which will be used for winter play and year-round lessons and fittings.
The City of Kamloops is ideally located in the heart of British Columbia’s Southern Interior. Kamloops is widely known for its great wineries, boating, fishing, mountain biking, hiking and winter sports. An incredible four-season city, you are only a short drive to Sun Peaks Ski Resort, Harper Mountain Ski Resort, the Shuswap Lakes and at least 15 beautiful golf courses. Aptly named The Tournament Capital of Canada, Kamloops is home to a myriad of sports teams and has recently hosted events such as the Memorial Cup, Scotties Tournament of Hearts and the Canada 55+ Games.
