Northern Bear

Summary

Northern Bear is a public 18-hole golf course in Sherwood Park, Alberta, Canada, within the broader Canada West golf landscape. The course follows a parkland layout, a style commonly associated with inland golf, tree-lined corridors, more sheltered playing conditions, and a routing that tends to reward placement from tee to green. It is attributed to Jack Nicklaus and traces its origins to 2002, details that place the property within an earlier generation of American course design and give it a profile consistent with many long-established courses of the same era.
