Course Intelligence
Course Character
The defining feature is variety within one property. Strategy should change with the nine: use wind and broad contours on Mountain, protect against wetlands and trees on Stag, and manage length and creek-side targets on Eagle. Mountain views are part of the experience, but the landform should drive the shot plan. The Powder Horn is a private 27-hole Dick Bailey golf club near Sheridan, Wyoming, set in a valley facing the Bighorn Mountains. The official golf page describes three contrasting nines: Mountain with open rolling links-style terrain, Stag with woods and wetlands, and Eagle with meadow and creek-side holes.
