Tobiano Golf was named
the “Best new course in Canada" by both Golf Digest and Score Golf Magazine. No
other course in Canada has ever achieved such praise. Once you play it you will
understand what all the fuss is about. Immaculate conditioning, challenging golf
and a backdrop that sets it apart from any other course in Canada.
Built on the sage brush hills above Kamloops Lake, Tobiano's rich green fairways
take you over rolling hills, across deep ravines and around stark sandy embankments.
Each hole is an entirely
unique experience. Some will require you to hit a specific target; some will let
you take a rip with the driver; some will leave you to debate between the risks
and rewards of your plan of attack. Bombers
will love the opportunity to go for glory on more than a few holes, while plodders
will enjoy the fact that all greens are well defended and require the bombers
to back-up their drives with a solid short game. Throw
the capricious winds of the Thompson River Valley into the mix, which depending
on direction and speed can affect club selection by as much as five clubs, and
you will see why Tobiano is a course that beguiles golfers as much with her beauty
as with her challenge! While the course is
unlike anything else in Canada it is Tobiano's incredible beauty that will linger
in your memory. Every hole presents its own sweeping vista of Kamloops Lake. Add
sand embankments, sage brush hills, emerald green fairways, white silica sand
bunkers, blue skies, warm summer breezes and the company of fellow golfers to
that setting and you will begin to understand why people keep coming back to Tobiano
again and again.Whether
you have time for only one round or you are staying for a week, Tobiano is definitely
a Kamloops ‘must play’ course. |
