A Journey From The Fairways To The Forefront Of Golf Travel
Welcome to the heart of our passion project, The Big Golf Company. I'm Chris North, and as the CEO and your Big Golf Tour Director, I've dedicated my career to blending the world of travel with the timeless sport of golf. My love for this game and for adventure has taken me across the globe, from the lush greens of prestigious courses to the innovative forefront of the travel industry.
The Road Less Travelled
With nearly three decades in the travel sector, my journey has spanned online travel agencies, luxury tour operations, travel technology, and now—the world of golf. This path wasn't just chosen; it was a destiny shaped by my childhood. Growing up beside a golf course, I was the kid who, at 10 years old, used my brother's Slazenger clubs to sneak onto the course, sparking a lifelong love for the game. Today, I play most weeks, and it's a joy to share my passion as I guide our guests on Big Golf Tours around the world.
Where Passion Meets Play
My favorite course? That honor goes to Dye Fore at the breathtaking Casa De Campo resort in the Dominican Republic. Its challenging layout and dramatic scenery, set against the backdrop of the Chavon River, exemplify the adventure and challenge I seek in golf. It's courses like these—where every shot counts and the beauty of the game shines—that inspire our tours at The Big Golf Company.
A Note From The Fairway
Beyond the greens and fairways, my life has been filled with music and adventure. At 18, I found myself as a resident DJ in a nightclub on the Costa Brava, Spain, spinning tracks under the sun. This fun fact is a testament to my belief that life, much like golf, is an adventure full of unexpected turns and joyous moments.
