Get The Most Out Of Your Swing – Golf Balls Travel Further in the Highest City in Canada

Get The Most Out Of Your Swing – Golf Balls Travel Further in the Highest City in Canada

by Cali Sammel / Tuesday, 19 June 2018 / Published in Golf, News

There are many reasons why one golf in Kimberley, B.C, whether it’s about the course, the town or the people – whatever your reason is, these might be a few more to consider;

Top courses to play
Trickle Creek Golf Resort – voted #1 course in the Kimberley & Cranbrook region by the B.C. Golfer’s Dream survey in 2016 and again this season!  If golfing the #1 course in the region doesn’t tickle your fancy then we don’t know what will.

Escape the heat
Kimberley is cooler (in temperature that is).  As well as being the highest city in Canada, Kimberley is located in the mountains, providing some nice cool mountain breezes on those hotter days.  Don’t get us wrong, there are hot days, but compared to other nearby places (i.e – Okanagan area) Kimberley is definitely cooler!

Balls travel further
Kimberley, B.C is the highest city in Canada and no we don’t mean THAT kind of high.  We mean altitude high and it’s a fact that golf balls do in fact travel further in higher altitudes.  The science behind it is all about air density – air density decreases and elevation increases which means the ball can fly more easily through the air.  So, if you’re looking to get more out of your swing – it’s time to try golfing in Kimberley!  Don’t buy it?  Well listen to a real scientist discuss higher altitudes and how it effects your game here on the Titleist website.

Take in the mountain views
Trickle Creek Golf Resort is frequently referred to as ‘a golfers dream’ with ‘dramatic elevation changes, peak-filled horizons, gorgeous white-silica bunkers, undulating greens and a solid Les Furber design add up to an unforgettable day of golf’.  And it really is all that and more, just look at this photo and try to argue this point;

Animals and more
Don’t come just for the golf or the amazing landscape, come for the wildlife experience as well.  Trickle Creek Golf Resort and Kimberley, B.C are home to friendly deer, birds, cute ground gophers and chipmunks as well as (not so friendly) bears, who all stop by once and a while to check out your score.  While you always need to practice safety around wildlife and be bear aware, there is something amazing about seeing a mama bear and her cubs take a stroll across the green you’re aiming at, just sit back and take it all in (from a safe distance).  Get a sampling of the wildlife you might see on our previous blog – ‘The keenest spectators, the wildlife of Trickle Creek‘.

A round (or two) after your round
Kimberley has a great ‘apres’ scene – whether it’s golf or ski season!  At Trickle Creek Golf Resort, The Clubhouse offers a large patio facing the 18th green with amazing food and great drink options, or try out Buckhorn & Main Mountain Eatery for a view of the ski resort during the summer – it’s located just down the road at Trickle Creek Lodge.  Plus Buckhorn & Main have just release their new summer flavours menu which features the incredible Smokey Bacon Burger!  Venturing into town gives you even more options include Overtime Beerworks for some craft beer action, Pedal & Tap for a place the locals love as well as Stonefire Pizza for a family meal or Sullivan’s Pub for some keno fun and pub style fare.

The absolutely delicious food at The Clubhouse
