Golfing
This course is very hilly and features one pond and a stream that comes into play on several holes. Large oak trees add to the difficulty and when putting, the ball will break an additional two inches away from the mountains. "Golf Digest" rated this course as the 5th "Best Public Course" in the state for 1996. Kendrick Golf Course (Public)
This course was built in a valley beneath the mountains. It is a very scenic course that features numerous hills that can cause uneven lies. "Golf Digest" rated this course as the 4th "Best Public Course" in the state for 1996, and the 5th "Best in State" course for 1995-96. Sheridan Country Club (Semi-Private)

This eighteen hole course is situated at the base of the Big Horn Mountains. Every hole offers an incredible panoramic view of the Big Horn Mountains and the surrounding area. The course is links-style on the front nine and target-style on the back nine. Native rough lines all the fairways and makes play challenging. There are several water hazards strategically placed throughout the course. This facility also offers a state-of-the-art driving range and practice facility, as well as a 13,000-square foot putting green. The 5,878-yard ladies' tee also has a men's course rating of 67.3 and slope of 116. Horseshoe Mountain Golf Club (Public)
This course is located on a 7,000-acre thoroughbred ranch and wildlife habitat. Being at the base of the Bighorn Mountain, the scenery offers a "nature escape" with wildlife (near the course, but not underfoot) and crisp weather. This course has water hazards that come into play on three holes and sand bunkers lurking near the greens. The greens are average size with mild undulation. The fairways are generous with ample landing areas.
