Course Overview
The first of the two courses at Pronghorn Golf Club opened in 2004 and introduced ‘high desert’ to the Oregon golf lexicon, a style that has since grown in popularity with designs like Tetherow and Brasada Canyon. Rock outcroppings dot the course and are used as both risk-reward carries and centerline hazards that need creativity and gusto to successfully navigate, perhaps most memorably at the striking par-5 15th. In such a highly concentrated area for excellent golf, the Jack Nicklaus Signature Course has its own identity and is among the best inland tracks in the Pacific Northwest. The design also has helped bolster Bend’s reputation as one of the preeminent golf destinations on the West Coast.
