Palmilla Beach Golf Club
Played On 09/07/2020A nice resort town golf course.
This is the first time I played Palmilla Beach golf course since before Hurricane Harvey. It was a bit disappointing when I heard they converted the format links style 18 hole course to a 9 hole resort course. However I wanted to give it a try.
I wasn’t disappointed. The practice area was in good shape. The course was in excellent shape and the greens were just fine. The only downside was the heat, and the course management kept plenty of iced water bottles. (The iced mango towels they used to provide when it was Newport Dunes were great, and they were missed today).
The pace of play was fine. We played 18 holes (9 twice) and made the turn right on schedule. We got done in just under 4 hours and the course was busy.
The patio bar and grill were ideal following such a hot day.
Broadlands Golf Course
Played On 07/26/2020Broadlands Golf - a pleasant round
There are a lot of course closer to me that the Broadlands. I had played there a couple of years prior and I had a good impression. I went with a friend today, and I wasn’t disappointed. The course is in great shape and the pace of play was great. We got done in 4 hours. For Denver area golf, that is a miracle.
The only negative was as a result of COVID-19, there was no seed mix for the carts. The ground was soft from the rains and I cut a few more divots than usual. I couldn’t fill them in.
Foothills Golf Course - Executive Course
Played On 06/05/2020A quick 9 in an evening
The Foothills Golf course has great services and three courses. For a quick 9, I really like to catch a tee time on the Executive 9. It isn’t extremely challenging, but it is great for honing your game when you are short on time. I usually play as a single, and I always get paired up with other folks who aren’t too serious about the game. In every case, it has been a light-hearted round. One warning, though if you are walking. Hole 6 and up to the 7th tee box is a steep climb. But take time on the 7th tee box. Grab a breath and look around. One of the best views of the foothills of the Rockies. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
