Best course in the DOD

Writing this review as a HS Sophomore who call this course his main course. If this was an average course, its really nothing to write home about, but if you consider this course as a military base course, it really shines.

The rates are jacked like crazy for civilians and might not be the best choice for your outing, but if youre a junior or in the military (or even retired military), then the course is dirt cheap for the value. The clubhouse was recently rebuilt and looks extremely nice and well kept. The pro shop has a good selection of balls, gloves, shoes and used and new clubs, as well as a built in club facility,

The practice facilities are below par. The short game area is a long walk, has 3 greens and a singular bunker. This is the only place you can putt for the next year as the putting green was removed in favor of a new one awhile back. The driving range is downhill, and compared to other courses, range balls are quite expensive.

This gets outdone by the course. The course is in excellent condition right now, excluding around 2 or so greens that have a small dead patches. The layout is challenging and forces you to be relatively tight and safe with your club selection. Water does not come into play except for the left side of 1 and in front of 11 green. Putting is a challenge and will force you to be conservative due to the immensely fast greens.The par 3s are challenging, surrounded tightly by trees and bunkers, This course surely demands every single club that you have in the bag, and it definitely shows.

This course is a must if youre in the military. If not... I'd say find a different course in town :). If you still choose to play here, you will have plenty of fun.

Tournament Review: Was not great.

I played during a US kids golf tournament. It was a bumpy and rough course that reminded me of other courses such as Kings Deer and Buffalo Run. However, it was worse.

The condition was okay for this time of year, but there is no excuse for the condition of some of your hazard. Some of the hazards ( Such as Hole 7 par 3) are covered in white and muck and are infested with recluse spiders and fire ants. The fairways have long patches of dead grass and the greens were weird feeling and hard to putt on. Aeration plugs everywhere, The Back was in better shape than the front. The practice range areas were fine.

The layout was really weird, and I was frequently confused on where the pins were, and it was long walks between some holes. 14 was the most confusing, my fmap said it was straight when it was a 90 degree angle away.

The area around was good due to CSU Pueblo being walking distance away.

Should you play here? No. PCC and Elmwood are in better shape than this course. Skip this course for now until the conditions improve, and do not play in winter and early spring.
