Golf in Plentywood

Plentywood is the Sheridan County seat at Montana's northeast corner, where Canada is less than an hour north, North Dakota begins immediately to the east, and the landscape is pure northern Great Plains without interruption. Plentywood Golf Club serves a farming and ranching community that values the recreational continuity the course provides through an agricultural calendar that leaves little room for leisure. Social life in a community this isolated is necessarily concentrated, and the golf club carries institutional weight that its modest physical footprint does not suggest. The Sheridan County Fair and the golf course are the twin anchors of summer community life.
