Stock Farm Club

Stock Farm Club, located in Hamilton, Montana, is an exclusive private 18-hole course designed by Tom Fazio in 1999, measuring 7,102 yards with a par of 72, a rating of 73.2, and a slope of 137. Set in the Bitterroot Valley, it features rolling fairways, native grasses, and views of the Sapphire and Bitterroot Mountains, with water hazards on 10 holes adding strategic depth. The club offers a luxurious clubhouse, dining, and equestrian facilities, and has been ranked among Golfweek’s top residential courses, hosting high-end member events.

The course plays as a strategic gem, with generous fairways that tempt bold drives but punish errant shots with bunkers and water, like the par-4 4th with its creek-guarded green. X posts highlight the par-3 15th for its stunning mountain backdrop and tricky pin placements. The firm bentgrass greens demand precise approaches, and the course’s elevation changes require careful distance control. Golfers on X describe it as “forgiving yet challenging,” ideal for low-handicappers who enjoy creative shot-making, though its private status and length can test less experienced players.
