PnP 26 - Canada 2
On The Tee
The 26th edition of Pros & Peasants - Which One Are You? will be returning to Canada for the second time and first since 2017.
The Canadian Rockies are so incredibly scenic and home to some criminally underrated golf. Here you'll find some of the top courses in all of Canada.
Greywolf - consistently in the top 10 in Canada and as high as # 1 in BC, this spectacular alpine setting will keep you coming back. The diabolical Cliffhanger hole is one of the best in the world. Here you'll find a couple of vlogs featuring the front 9 and the back 9.
The Point At Copper Point - featuring wide fairways and plenty of elevation change, this classic course is a top 50 public course in Canada. Click here for a short overview.
Eagle Ranch Resort - coming in at #31 in Canada, it provides wonderful views of the Columbia Valley and Purcell Mountain Ranges, a great patio and a challenging layout. Click here for a short overview.
The Springs at Radium Golf - among SCOREGolf's top 59 public courses in Canada, enjoy great scenery in a spectacular setting. Click here for a short course tour.
Banff Springs - one of the top 5 courses in all of Canada, this layout in the heart of the Canadian Rockies alongside the Bow River offers a great layout and breathtaking panoramic views in every direction. Arrive early for an opportunity to play this "warm-up" round. Click here for a vlog.
Stewart Creek - sitting at #12 in the rankings and featuring spectacular views of the Three Sisters and several other mountains, this new as of 2000 gem is located just 30 minutes from Banff. Click here for a course tour.

Q & A
ALL IN...to where do I send the funds?
Awesome! Once registration opens, Venmo, PayPal, Zelle’ would be great! Use my email address. Contact me if needing to send via snail mail.
I can't commit at this time; can I sign up later?
Can you reach a par-5 island green in 2? No guarantees but if lodging and tee time availability, then yes. In the interim, we can add you to the waitlist.
I'm in but prior to the trip my availability changes. Can I get a refund?
I hit my tee shot OB…can I get a mulligan? It depends. Due to possible contractual room and/or golf guarantees, a full refund may not be available unless YOU are able to secure a replacement and/or we have someone on the waitlist. Funds submitted over and above the deposit may be refundable subject to any expenses incurred.
How much will this set me back?
The Magic 8 ball says “Better not tell you now”. Easy answer is it’ll be more than the very early years yet less than Bandon Dunes or FarmLinks. All in (lodging, golf, swag, prizes, dinners, etc.) will be approximately $1,700.
Can I get a single occupancy room in one of the rental properties? And how much more is that?
Do you have deep pockets? While most players will enjoy a single room ... timely responses, deposits, returning players and PnP seniority will determine priority. If you're reading this you're already ahead of the game.
Will there be any optional rounds?
Is the Pope catholic? You’re kidding, right?!? Of course! Replay rates vary from course to course.
I love the PnP experience and my buddies are jealous, may I extend an invite to them?
Are you sucking up? That's one way to earn brownie points. Yes, we are always interested in adding guys who love golf and will mesh well with the group dynamic. If you can vouch for them then yes, extend an invite. We can’t guarantee a spot at this time but they can submit their name - and a deposit - when registration opens.
My wife is REALLY jealous, may she join me?
We are aware several wives / significant others are interested in visiting Banff - who can blame them? - and they are more than welcome to join you.... following PnP.
