About this course

Olds Golf Club is located in the town of Olds, approximately 90 kilometers north of Calgary in central Alberta. The course was designed by Gary McCullough, a Canadian architect who has worked on numerous courses throughout Alberta and the prairie provinces. The layout reflects the characteristic terrain of this region, where the transition from foothills to prairie creates gently rolling topography with open sightlines and exposure to prevailing winds. The course serves the local community and surrounding agricultural area, functioning as a traditional small-town club where golf is accessible and the atmosphere remains unpretentious. Like many Alberta courses at this elevation and latitude, Olds operates within a season that typically runs from late April through October, with conditions shaped by chinook winds and the continental climate of the region. The routing takes advantage of natural land movement without dramatic elevation changes, and the design incorporates trees and water features that provide definition and strategic interest within the prairie landscape. The course offers a straightforward test of golf that rewards accuracy and course management rather than relying on length alone. As a community facility, Olds Golf Club maintains the social traditions common to prairie golf clubs, where the clubhouse serves as a gathering place and the game remains central to local recreation and competition throughout the summer months.
