Welcome to the Bunker Hills Senior Men’s League (BHSML). Our goal is to organize and conduct competitive golf experiences and promote new and lasting friendships through League competitions and activities. In addition, the League is active with other golf associations which promote the sport in Minnesota. We are privileged to call Bunker Hills Golf Course (BHGC) our home course since 1994.
Bunker Hills is a municipal course, built by the city of Coon Rapids in 1968. The course has gone through several changes to become the course we are familiar with today. BHGC has hosted several PGA and Senior PGA events along with MGA events and is a popular venue for other state and local tournaments along with corporate events. Tim Anderson, Director of Golf Operations has guided the course to several improvements and the seniors have benefited greatly. Dan Sainio, Assistant Golf Professional has led the way in making our competitions successful events.
We have between 85 and 100 members and play on Wednesday mornings. We normally start play in late April and play through September. Stroke play is our normal competition by flights, culminating with the League Championship in August.
The League utilizes the Minnesota Golf Association/ USGA GHIN system to establish and maintain handicaps. Our scoring service, Golf Genius, communicates all league scores directly to GHIN from your phone, eliminating the need for members to double enter scores.
Historically, we welcome 5-10 new members a year.
We will continue to improve league communications by more extensive use of our website (BHSeniorGolf.com) and weekly emails. We look forward to another great year.
Steve Olson, BHSML President, 2025
