Exclusive Shooting Star Golf Club Tops Wyoming Rankings

Golf enthusiasts, gather ’round! If you’re looking for a prestigious golf club experience that feels as exclusive as a celebrity gala, look no further than the Shooting Star Golf Club nestled in Teton Village. With its recent ranking as No. 1 in Wyoming by Golf Digest for 2023 and 2024, and being highlighted in the top 100 golf courses in the country, this members-only club has officially made its mark. Get ready to find out just what makes this course a cut above the rest!

Why Shooting Star is a Golfing Gem

The club is not just another pretty face. Set in one of the most expensive neighborhoods in Jackson Hole, Shooting Star boasts a rich history that goes back to the 1930s with the Resor family, who originally founded the Snake River Ranch. Fast forward to today, and you’ve got a stunning, $130 million golf course spread across 250 acres, complete with breathtaking views and no housing developments intruding on your game.

When the doors first opened in 2009, membership came with a hefty price tag of $100,000, a figure that surely hasn’t diminished, though current rates remain under wraps. Adding to its allure, there’s a long waitlist for potential members, and joining the club is strictly by invitation, making Shooting Star the kind of place where you feel like part of an exclusive inner circle.

A Gold Standard Course Designed by the Best

Lovers of the game will appreciate that the course was designed by renowned architect Tom Fazio, known for his work on luxurious, high-profile courses. The transformative process involved reshaping the landscape by moving a staggering 2 million cubic yards of dirt and planting over 2,500 trees. Water enthusiasts will find pleasure in the eight holes that challenge players with water hazards, offering both beauty and complexity.

Golf Digest couldn’t rave enough about the club’s fantastic conditioning, remarkable views, and the natural flow of the layout that feels as if it’s been a part of the landscape forever. With PGA pro Ben Polland as the club’s director, you can bet that the skills of both amateurs and professionals are put to the ultimate test on this poky yet picturesque course.

Luxurious Amenities to Enhance Your Experience

Step into the clubhouse, and you might feel like you just walked into a luxurious ranch with all the trimmings. Complete with a 25-meter lap pool and decor of realistic cattle paintings and animal skulls, the ambiance truly reflects the region’s rugged charm, adorned with wood and leather that evoke the spirit of the outdoors.

The club doesn’t just cater to golf alone; it transforms into a winter wonderland when the snow falls. The Alpine Barn becomes the main hub for skiing, packed with nearly 200 lockers, complimentary food, and even movie showings! Plus, you can’t help but love the shuttle service whisking you off to nearby slopes.

  • Fitness buffs aren’t left in the cold, either, with smart cardio equipment, yoga and Pilates studios, tennis, and pickleball courts available for use.
  • Need a break? Relax in serene treatment rooms adorned with soothing limestone and wood textures to unwind after an active day.
  • Gather with your friends for an exquisite dining experience, complete with a wood-burning fire pit, while soaking in views of the golf course.
