What’s going on, family? How are you doing? How are we feeling? ⛳️
I honestly couldn’t sleep the couple nights before because I was so excited to finally play the Valley Course at Bear Mountain. From the moment we got out there, I was incredibly impressed by the layout. The holes were spectacular, the views were breathtaking, and I loved how the course flowed through the natural elevation of the hills. Everywhere you looked, you were surrounded by beautiful scenery and nature.
This round was a late birthday present to myself, and I had the pleasure of sharing it with my teammates Carlos, Jason T., and Jason D. The vibes were great from beginning to end. I also really enjoyed our pace of play because it gave us the opportunity to slow down, study the greens, and really think through our shots.
I’m not going to lie—Bear Mountain is absolutely beautiful, and I feel incredibly grateful that I had the opportunity to experience it. We ended up shooting a (96) playing by all the rules adding stroke, when in hazards and playing it away from man-made objects, and away from rocks.
Valley Course at Bear Mountain was an absolute blast. I really enjoyed how strategic the course was—it constantly made you think about shot placement, club selection, and how you wanted to approach each hole.
There were so many memorable holes, but my personal favourites were 6, 8, 13, 15, and 17. Each one offered its own unique challenge and made the round that much more enjoyable.
Definitely a course that challenges your game while still making every hole fun to play. presents a different kind of challenge, especially on the greens. Reading the breaks, judging the speed, and navigating those greens can be extremely difficult—and that’s exactly what makes it so challenging and fun.
I’ve always enjoyed playing difficult courses because I believe that’s where you learn the most about your game. Bear mountain - mountain side next.
I started playing golf on May 17, 2026, and I’ve now played 40 rounds, many of them full 18-hole rounds. One thing I’ve learned is that playing 18 holes can teach you a lot about yourself. You begin to understand your swing, your approach shots, your chipping, your putting, your patience, and most importantly, your mindset.
There’s something incredibly peaceful about being on a golf course—being surrounded by nature, breathing in the fresh air, clearing your mind, and simply focusing on the shot in front of you.
Every time I step onto the course, I choose peace. 🏌️♂️⛳️🙏
