Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee One of the toughest starting holes around
From The Fairway Lay up short of the hill to 165 yards from the green and you’ll have the best look at the green. Big hitters can bomb it over the hill and have a short, uphill approach. Avoid the trap to the left of the fairway that is even with the landing area.
On The Green There’s trouble left of the green.
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee Be careful with the tee shot! The carry to cut the corner is farther than it looks.
From The Fairway
On The Green The ideal tee shot is just to the right of the tree on the corner. This will leave you a short to mid-iron approach to this amphitheater green.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee Club selection on this par 3 is important.
From The Fairway
On The Green If the ball lands short of the green, it will generally not bounce up, so take plenty of club and fly your ball to the hole. Favor the right side as any misses there have the chance of bouncing down to the green.
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A tee shot to the left of the tree in the fairway leaves you with a short iron to a deep, narrow green
On The Green Avoid missing this green long or to the right.
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway You should favor the left side of this fairway as it tilts left-to-right. This can be considered a reachable par 5, but there is some risk involved.
On The Green The green is hidden around the corner to the left with a creek and trees on the left side. The prudent play is to lay up to 120 yards for your third shot. Be aware of pin position as this green has a large tier in it.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee This hole is downhill and generally plays downwind, so don’t be too intimidated by the length.
From The Fairway A tee shot just left of the fairway bunker will give you a good look at this expansive, undulating green.
On The Green
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee Conservative play is the secret on this three shot par
From The Fairway
On The Green 5. Trying for the green in two is a bad choice as the approach is very narrow with the green being surrounded by bunkers and a small pond to the right. Lay up to about 125 yards for the best access to this green. Par is always a good score.
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee Playing at the pin on this short par 3 may not be the thing to do.
From The Fairway Par 4
On The Green The wind can be a huge factor coming off your right side over the pond, so shoot for the fat of the green. Avoid the bunkers behind the green, as your next shot will generally be back at the water
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee A straight tee shot is a must as the sagebrush to the left and right tends to catch a lot of stray balls
From The Fairway
On The Green The green is large and terraced, so be ware of pin position to get yourself in the right area!
Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The tee shot on this short par 4 is somewhat blind. Play towards the V in the mountain and that will put you in the middle of the fairway.
On The Green Don’t hit your drive too far or you’ll have a difficult, uphill approach to this tricky, narrow green. An approach from 100 yards has the best view of the green and will allow you to see where the pin is located.
Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway This dogleg right par 5 can be reached in two if the tee shot is placed just to the left of the fairway bunker.
On The Green Be aware of the small bunker in front of the green. Once again, check the pin position because the length of this green can mean a four club difference.
Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The best target off of the tee is the tree in the fairway.
On The Green Favor the right side of the fairway as balls will roll down to the left. Leave the driver in the bag as the landing area narrows once you reach that tree. Leave yourself about 130 yards to the green for the best view. This green is shallow and tough to putt, so make sure you put yourself in the correct position.
Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee Favor the right side on this slightly downhill par 3.
From The Fairway
On The Green A large green awaits your tee shot, so par should definitely be within reach.
Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee A short hole, but 4 is always a good score.
From The Fairway Put the driver away and favor the right side with a hybrid or fairway wood. This downhill approach will make or break you, so check the wind speed and trust your yardage and club selection.
On The Green
Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee The prevailing winds generally hit you right in the face as you turn back towards the clubhouse. Hit all you have from the tee with the big tree as your target.
From The Fairway
On The Green Your approach shot will be from a downhill lie to a large, tiered green. Par is a good score.
Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee This uphill par 3 is visually intimidating, but rest assured, the green is bigger than it looks.
From The Fairway
On The Green Take enough club to take the front bunker out of play. Don’t flirt with the pin if it’s on the left tier. Play to the center of the green, take your two putts and head to the next tee.
Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee Hit your tee shot just to the right of the Sentinel tree.
From The Fairway
On The Green This narrow green can be reached in two with a good drive, but the prevailing winds will generally prevent that. A smart layup just short of the grass valley will leave a short approach. Make your birdie and hold on for the finale!
Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee The best finishing hole in western Colorado!
From The Fairway Avoid the fairway bunker to give yourself the best opportunity to get to this green.
On The Green The lake does come into play from the tee and on the approach shot. This tiered green is very large, so check the pin position. Take your par and run to the 19th hole!
