Why it matters

Shorty's is a 6.5-hole short course at Bandon Dunes built by Rod Whitten and opened in 2023 alongside the Sheep Ranch property. Designed as a walking loop for late-afternoon golf with a drink in hand, it has a fan following despite being the most recently added course at the resort. The Punchbowl putting course is the other after-dinner option.

How to play it

Walking only; flat. Bookable as part of a resort stay. Pair with Bandon Preserve for a full "shorts" afternoon, or play after a Sheep Ranch round.
