Frequently Asked Questions
When is the absolute best time to play Bomber's Golf Course, and what should I expect from the conditions?
We always recommend visiting Bomber's in late spring or early fall. You'll find the fairways are at their absolute prime, the greens roll true, and the weather is perfect for tackling those long par-5s without the brutal summer heat or chilly winter winds. Just be aware that these are popular times, so book your tee time well in advance.
How challenging is Bomber's Golf Course for a typical golfer, and what's its most notorious hole?
Don't let the name fool you - Bomber's is a true test, especially if you're not consistently hitting it long and straight. The notorious 14th, "The Gauntlet," is a tight dogleg par-4 with water guarding the green, demanding precision over power. You'll definitely want to bring your A-game and maybe an extra sleeve of balls for that one.
What's the typical cost to play Bomber's, and do you feel it's worth the price?
Green fees at Bomber's typically range from $120-$180, depending on the season and time of day. We absolutely think it's worth every penny; the course conditioning is always immaculate, and the challenging layout provides a memorable experience you won't soon forget. Consider playing twilight for a slightly better deal if your schedule allows.
Beyond the course, what makes Bomber's a unique golf destination, especially for the 19th hole?
After your round, you absolutely have to visit "The Hangar," Bomber's clubhouse restaurant. Their signature "Ace Burger" and local craft beer selection are fantastic, and the views from the patio overlooking the 18th green are unbeatable. It's the perfect spot to relive your best shots - and maybe forget your worst.
What specific gear or preparation do you recommend for playing Bomber's Golf Course?
Given Bomber's exposed layout and often breezy conditions, we strongly recommend bringing a windbreaker, even on warmer days. Also, the course is quite walkable, but if you prefer a cart, be prepared for some significant elevation changes on the back nine. Don't forget a rangefinder; accurate yardage is crucial here.
