We are the Bear Creek Men's Golf Club (BCMGC) located in Chandler, Arizona. From a membership perspective, we are one of the largest mens club in the Valley of the Sun. Our membership consists of single and double digit handicapers.
On our home course, the Bear Creek Golf Complex - Bear Course, allows play to occur from three sets of tees at Par 71.
Blue:
- This is the default tee we play from and all players can select these tees
- Yardage is 6418 with a rating of 69.2 and slope rating of 114
White:
- Optional forward tee location for those 60+ years of age
- Yardage is 5978 with a rating of 67.0 and slope rating of 109
Red/White Combination:
- Optional forward tee location for those 75+ years of age
- Yardage is 5469 with a rating of 64.5. and slope rating of 101
- Red Tees = 1,3,6,7,9,11,14,17,18
- White Tees = 2,4,5,8,10,12,13,15,16
As a rule, we allow players to change their tee assignments one time per quarter. This is to allow for consistency and minimize setup as we use Golf Genius (GG), an automated real-time scoring application to track scores. In addition, during our Saturday events, our net games take into account the course rating & slope along with a players handicap index to level the playing field so that players of the three possible tees are treated fairly; this is handled via the GG software.
Outside of the times when we have special road trips or the course is unplayable, we tend to play on each and every Saturday morning at the Bear Creek Golf Complex - Bear Course located on 500 East Riggs Road, just East of Arizona Avenue.
