Assistant Golf Professional - Taber Golf Club

Taber Golf Club, first opened in 1969, is a semi-private club located 30 minutes east of Lethbridge. Constructed in two phases, the front nine will provide plenty of forgiveness off the tee, with the tradeoff of being open to the wind's influence on every shot. The original nine, now played as the back, offers relief from the wind but forces players to be more precise with their shots; a wayward drive can easily find you chipping out or blocked from going at your target.
