The Golf Division is involved in the licensing, ownership and operation of golf practice and instruction facilities; the marketing of golf course designs; and the management of golf clubs.
Domestically the golf centers operate under the Golden Bear Golf Center name. The company currently owns or operates 14 facilities in 10 states and plans to operate as many as 22 centers by year-end 1997. Golden Bear Golf Centers are designed to provide affordable golf practice and instruction to a larger population, to attract new participants to the game and to create an environment for quality family entertainment. In addition to a modern golf practice facility, professional instruction and a fully-stocked golf shop, many Golden Bear Golf Centers offer additional amenities such as batting cages, mini-golf or par-3 golf courses. The instruction provided by trained professionals espouses the proven methods of the Nicklaus/Flick Golf School, which in turn are based on the instruction that Jack Nicklaus himself received from his first teaching professional, the famed Jack Grout.
For further information, please contact the Golden Bear Golf Center nearest you.

In addition to the golf practice and instruction facility business, the Golf Division of Golden Bear Golf is responsible for the sales and marketing of Nicklaus Design, the golf course design firm headed by Jack Nicklaus. Nicklaus Design has opened nearly 150 golf courses around the world and currently has several dozen under design or construction.
While the actual design services of Nicklaus Design are provided under the umbrella of Golden Bear International, Mr.
Nicklaus' privately-owned company, the sales of these services and the marketing of the golf courses themselves are handled by Golden Bear Golf's Golf Division. For information on Nicklaus Design, visit their page in this website.
Finally, the Golf Division provides club management and consulting services to golf course owners. Golden Bear Club Services currently manages five Nicklaus-designed courses in the U.S. and one in Asia.
"Jack's dedication to quality in the golf course design and
construction area really has carried over into the Golf Division of
Golden Bear Golf today. We expect tremendous growth that really
started in 1996 and should carry on for many years with golf course
construction, golf instruction and its instructional facilities, club
management services and, of course, golf course design." - Mark
Hesemann
