Celebrated as one of the toughest 18 holes in Michigan\, The Bear was ranked as the 18th toughest course in America\, according to Golf Digest. This beautiful course offers the best of Traverse City golf and regularly stands out as a top golf course in Michigan.\n\nNicklaus signature design features Scottish terraced fairways\, tiered greens\, deep grassy roughs\, moguls and mounds\, and deep pot bunkers. With rolling land\, trees\, lakes\, streams\, fruit orchards\, and a variety of wildlife\, The Bear features a mixture of different elements golfers rarely see on one course. This is northern Michigan golf at its finest.\n\n \n\nTHE WOLVERINE\n\nGary Player's first signature course in the state of Michigan is designed to take full advantage of the Resort?s richly diverse environment. The design?s flexibility\, versatility\, and playability with four sets of tees allows the course to be set up to accommodate golfers of all abilities.\n\nThe course is challenging for a low handicap\, yet playable and enjoyable for high handicappers and is capable of being set up to be a true test for professional tournaments.\n\nEach nine is distinctive. The front nine is constructed on lowland terrain with water and wetlands\, and existing wetlands were enhanced to interweave with several holes on the front. The back nine is constructed on highland terrain with hardwoods\, rolling hills\, and views of East Grand Traverse Bay.\n\nFairways and greens were seeded with Providence Bentgrass\, tees were seeded with Penncross Bentgrass\, and the rough was seeded with bluegrass and fescue. The greens are undulating while water comes into play on 13 holes. The course record is 63\, shot during the first round of the 2008 Michigan Open by Bryan Stuard of Jackson\, Michigan.\n\n\n\nInterested in Lodging? \n\nLodging discounts have been provided for August 9th\, 10th and 11th\n\nHotel - $199++\n\nTower - $299++\n\n1 Bed Condo - $269++\n\n2 Bed Condo - $349 ++ \n\nCode: Traverse Connect Accommodations or you can call 800-968-7352 and mention "Traverse Connect Golf Outing Rate Guarantee"\n\n\nWhat is included?\n\n\n 18 Holes with a shared cart (plexiglass dividers to place between seats are available) \n Registration Gift\n Lunch\n Snacks\n 3-Drink Tickets (used for both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages)\n 1-50/50 Ticket\n\n\nSchedule\n\n 8:30 AM: Registration Begins\n\n10:30 AM: Shot Gun Start \n\n 3:45 PM: Player scorecards must be turned in to be included in drawings and prizes\n\n 4:00 PM: Outdoor Cocktail Hour with light appetizers and a cash bar \n\n 4:30 PM: Winners Announced: Course Winners\, 50/50 Winners\, and Auction Item Winners\n\n 6:00 PM: Conclusion of Event\n\n \n\nPlease Note: \n\n\n You do NOT need to be present to win the 50/50 drawing OR the auction items. \n Follow our Facebook Page - Winning Tickets drawn for those not present will be photographed and placed on the Traverse Connect Facebook page.
