The 19th Hole: "The Bye Hole"

The Bye Hole concept originated in and comes from the British Isles. The hole is designed as a short pitch shot to be played behind the 18th green toward the island green in front of the clubhouse area. This particular hole can be played from multiple positions, even after the 9th hole, to settle all bets on the front nine. From almost anywhere at the clubhouse, you can see the 10th, 18th, and 19th Bye Hole along with unparalleled views of the majestic mountain ranges that surround the Bozeman area.

Black Bull Amenities: The Practice Range

The practice range at Black Bull will be one of the largest and most impressive driving ranges in the west. The range occupies 15 acres south of the clubhouse and is approximately 350 yards long. The layout of the range is setup in a true north/south alignment so that the sun never impacts practice at any time. Within the practice area boundaries are seven different target greens surrounded by bunkers, very much like the golf course greens. This layout creates a tremendous opportunity to practice various types of shots, under any type of condition, throughout anytime of the day.

On both sides of the range, the golfer will have the ability to practice chipping, pitching, bunker shots, fairway bunker shots, irons, drivers, and everything in between. The second tee area, located on the opposite end of the range has a large green, sand trap, and undulating fairway surrounded by rough. Lessons and long practice sessions will be given on this quiet end of the practice range. In addition, a 15,000 sq. ft. putting green and sand bunker practice area will be located between the 9th green and 1st tee. The practice areas at Black Bull will be surrounded by trees, mountains, and breath taking views; creating an absolutely unforgettable golfing experience.
