Bison Golf Club

High-country Arizona golf doesn't get much better than this mountain layout carved through towering ponderosa pines at 6,400 feet elevation. The thin air adds 15 yards to every shot, but you'll need every extra foot on the demanding par-4 16th, where your approach must carry a creek to a severely sloped green guarded by ancient trees. What separates this track from other mountain courses is its commitment to strategic design—every hole rewards course management over brute force, making it a thinking player's paradise that happens to offer some of the cleanest air you'll breathe on any golf course.
