Overview

The second of two courses at Bighorn to open, the Canyons was designed by Tom Fazio and features prominent bunkering throughout. Like the sibling Mountains course, the Canyons layout receives high marks from our panelists for its conditioning and aesthetics. In early 2018, the club completed a new 80,000-square-foot clubhouse that cost $70 million.
