Except one thing....

I love this course. It has become a new favorite especially when using GolfNow discounts and another discount booklet I have. I find this course challenging but fair. It is not a "gimmick" course and by changing the tees you hit from you can really alter what you sign up for as far as difficulty.

The one issue I have is the sand. Not the amount of traps, again challenging but fair, but it's the condition of the sand. Simply put the sand consistently does not seem well maintained at all. It is crusty or like hitting off pavement. i've probably played 7 rounds here this year,

Other than the sand this truly is my second favorite course in Northern Colorado second to Mariana Butte, which has it's own issues with being too pricey and RARELY having any real deals.

Gutsy Golf!

Having never played this course I had no idea what to expect. This course is not for the meek. A majority of the holes require a significant tee shot over a canyon, valley or hazard. This being said the views from the elevated tees of not only the valley but the course itself were stunning. The tee shots required some serious thought about where to hit the ball and how much risk you were willing to take. The greens were challenging but by no means crazy and they were in good shape. Golfers, please fix your ball marks! There were some areas that appeared to have some drainage problems as they were very soggy.

In short it is a great course but you better bring your big boy pants as the tee shots alone will test your nerve.
