2. Black Bear Golf Club. This Tom Jackson Signature design provides golfers the opportunity to get away from the confinement of homes lining each hole. The course itself will force you to use every club in your bag and the wide fairways instill confidence for the meek and forgiveness for the bold. Black Bear Golf Club is a classic parkland course completely engulfed by nature. The Beast, having recently sharpened its claws, may look intimidating with it's 23 finger lakes, but the wide fairways and smooth Champion greens make it golf as it was meant to be… peaceful, beautiful and playable.
