Bear's Best

Jack Nicklaus has selected 18 of his finest holes ever made and brought them to Las Vegas at Bear’s Best Golf Club. Opened in 2001, Nicklaus hand-picked holes from everywhere from Arizona to Montana, making each hole a worthy signature hole.

Holes are replicated to the finest detail. On holes 4 and 11, black sand was imported from Montana to resemble the black bunkering of the Old Works course. The 18th is a daunting finishing hole at 450 yards, taken from the PGA West Resort.

While the front nine is primarily flat, the back nine climbs into the foothills more and the added movement puts even more drama into Jack’s golf holes. The 10th hole is another replication from PGA West and is noteworthy with its raised fairway split by a long, deep bunker that teases with your thoughts while on the tee.

“The key to making this concept work was to take this property here in the foothills and then let Jack pick holes from his other courses that he had built in similar topography” explained Director of Golf Pat Mastandre. Nicklaus got permission from the various courses to allow golf holes to be recreated here, and he then worked to scale those holes into this landscape so that the same shot values would exist between the original hole and the replicated one.”

Forecaddies are standard and do everything from calculate yardage to rake bunkers and replace divots, making, Bear’s Best a luxurious choice to fill out any golf package.
