Golf Skills Session with Head Golf Pro Doug Schneider - Hole #1

I always say to guests playing golf at Trickle Creek Golf Resort to, "Play the game within yourself and make sure that the right club off the tee is the right club."  For example if I was playing the Hole #1 from the blue tees I would not need to use driver.   Driver brings the creek into play as well as the hole narrows at the green.  I would play a four or five iron which gives me 100 Yards to the green.  From the Black tees I might play a hybrid 3 which will do the same.   Most amateur players should play to the 150 yard marker or maybe just a little longer and they will have a great view of the green.   This is a easy hole and you should not try to make it harder.

Les Furber’s Design Magic Shines at one of B.C’s Best Golf Resorts

Les Furber’s Design Magic Shines at one of B.C’s Best Golf Resorts

In the 1980’s to mid 1990’s Les Furber designed many of British Columbia’s top golf resorts. Early on, a player’s favourite choice from the numerous golf resorts became Trickle Creek Golf Resort in Kimberley, BC.

In recent years Trickle Creek Golf Resort has been voted to have the best view in the Rockies, one of the best golf courses in western Canada and has won a Bronze award for best course in the annual golfer’s choice awards in SCORE magazine.

“Trickle Creek Golf Resort has long been on the Golfers bucket list” says Matt Mosteller “Trickle Creek Golf Resort is proud of its Les Furber design as it exudes his signature of incredible golf, memorable experiences and in a spectacular natural setting”, added Mosteller.

Surrounded by Beauty

The gardens and flowers are in full bloom around the course, and truly are a beautiful site to see thanks to our resident horticulturist, Ingrid Musser.  Recent feedback from one guest let us know that things are looking pretty good on and around the course:  

"I have played hundreds of different courses around North America some of them PGA tour courses. The reason I tell you this? To understand my comparison value when I tell you that Trickle is truly a PGA tour course! It was immaculate, from the perfectly cut tees to the pristine aesthetics of the entire course, bunkers are perfect with great bunker sand, and the starter was very friendly and informative!" - July 2010 - Duane S.

Drive to Kimberley Offers Best Wildlife Sightings - See Recent Photos!

The drive to Kimberley is a beautiful one with the best chances of seeing wildlife in the summer.  From Hwy 1, driving down Hwy 93 through Kootenay National Park is a wilderness experience in itself with very little traffic and the surrounding vistas of forest and mountains sans wildlife fencing (a note to be aware of this while driving).  But it is not just the park section of the drive that offers the opportunity to see wildlife, it is quite common to have multiple wildlife sightings throughout the entire drive to Kimberley,  including:  bears, sheep, goats, deer, elk, and moose.

These photos were taken on Monday evening on the drive down to Kimberley. Mama and her cubs were frolicking in the small, grassy meadow alongside the highway.

Golf is FUN & Great Exercise!

Playing a round of golf can be great exercise!  If you really need any more excuses to hit the course, here are some great health benefits of the game that will clear your conscious when sneaking off to play:

- Walking the course will put 3 to 5 miles on your pedometre

- A course like Trickle Creek will provide lots of varying terrain to help build your cardiovascular conditioning

- Walking is a great low-impact, cardiovascular exercise that gets your heart and lungs pumping without the strain on your joints

- Burn over 400 calories if carrying clubs, 300 if using a pull cart.  

- The repetition of swinging clubs can help tone muscle, improve flexibility, range of motion, balance, and hand-eye coordination.

- The great outdoors and the enjoyment of the sport itself provides excellent mental health benefits!
