Wyoming’s 49 golf courses serve a state of roughly 580,000 people, and most of the serious golf destination traffic flows through one place: Jackson Hole, where the Teton Range rises abruptly to over 13,000 feet above the valley floor and golf courses play in front of one of America’s most photographed mountain landscapes. Wyoming golf is not about volume or variety — it is about the setting, and few settings in American golf can match a summer round in the shadow of the Grand Teton.
The golf season in Wyoming is short — June through September at most courses, mid-June through mid-September in the mountains. Summer temperatures are ideal (65–80°F), altitude (6,200 feet in Jackson, 5,300 feet in Casper) adds 5–10 yards to every shot, and Wyoming’s famously clear skies provide reliable playing weather. The state outside Jackson has several solid municipal and semi-private courses serving Casper, Cheyenne, and the smaller energy and agriculture communities.
Wyoming Golf by Region
Jackson Hole / Teton County
Jackson Hole has Wyoming’s marquee golf with three distinct courses in the valley. Jackson Hole Golf and Tennis Club is a Robert Trent Jones Jr. design on the flat valley floor with an unobstructed Grand Teton backdrop — the views from the course are among the most spectacular in American golf, and it operates as a semi-private facility accessible to resort guests and public players during off-peak times. Teton Pines Country Club (Arnold Palmer/Ed Seay design) is a semi-private club through the valley’s aspen and conifer terrain. Snake River Sporting Club is a Tom Fazio private design that attracts the ultra-high-net-worth visitor market, with fly-fishing, shooting, and accommodation alongside golf.
Casper / Central Wyoming
Casper has several quality courses serving Wyoming’s second-largest city. Casper Country Club is the area’s primary semi-private facility with a well-maintained layout. Powder Horn Golf Club south of Sheridan is a highly regarded semi-private option in northern Wyoming, with rolling high plains terrain and Bighorn Mountain views. Sheridan Country Club serves the Sheridan community with a classic parkland layout. Central and northern Wyoming golf offers honest, affordable golf with the kind of uncrowded conditions that have become rare in more populated states.
