Associate / Assistant Golf Professional: Oviinbyrd Golf Club - Mactier, ON

Developed in the Muskoka region to the north of Toronto by entrepreneur Peter Schwartz, Oviinbyrd is an exclusive golf club that first opened in 2005 with members playing on a Thomas McBroom designed course.

Öviinbyrd was constructed as a modern members’ course – as opposed to a new layout built to host national competitions – and the comfortably-sized, tree-lined fairways are intelligently routed to make the most of the natural wetland areas and rocky outcrops that characterize the region.
