HOLE-BY-HOLE

1st Hole

Par 4 · 462

Pro’s Tip:
The opening hole is a par 4 with a wide fairway where a good drive will split the bunkers. On the second shot, player will want to avoid the small bunkers near the front edge of this narrow green.

Tee 1: 462

Tee 2: 424

Tee 3: 392

Tee 4: 384

Tee 5: 347

2nd Hole

Par 5 · 616

Pro’s Tip:
The tee shot on the second offers players a decision; longer hitters may consider cutting the corner, while all others should play straight out. The green is difficult to reach in two, so a lay-up to the left center of the fairway will set up the best approach angle. Danger lurks over this green in the form of high native grass.

Tee 1: 616

Tee 2: 591

Tee 3: 583

Tee 4: 558

Tee 5: 518

3rd Hole

Par 4 · 471

Pro’s Tip:
Two large fairway bunkers challenge longer hitters off the tee. The left requires a carry of 220-250 yards depending on the tee box. The approach shot into this elevated green ought to avoid the right side where trouble lurks.

Tee 1: 471

Tee 2: 438

Tee 3: 400

Tee 4: 400

Tee 5: 355

4th Hole

Par 3 · 219

Pro’s Tip:
The par 3 fourth calls for one of Jack’s high, soft long-iron shots to stop the ball on the left-center of the green. Missing the green to the right leaves a steep shot out of the saddleback hollow.

Tee 1: 219

Tee 2: 199

Tee 3: 173

Tee 4: 162

Tee 5: 135

5th Hole

Par 4 · 289

Pro’s Tip:
Driving the green is possible on this short par 4, but players will have to carry a perilous horseshoe lake and greenside bunkers. The other option is to lay-up off the tee with a mid-to-long iron, leaving a short, but delicate approach into this heavily protected green.

Tee 1: 289

Tee 2: 270

Tee 3: 270

Tee 4: 249

Tee 5: 231

6th Hole

Par 5 · 560

Pro’s Tip:
A boulder-filled stream provides a beautiful setting for the par 4 sixth. The tee shot requires players to place their tee shot between the bunkers and the stream. Reaching the green is possible by eluding numerous bunkers surrounding the green. Another option is to lay-up to a narrow landing area, which leaves a fairly easy approach shot in.

Tee 1: 560

Tee 2: 522

Tee 3: 522

Tee 4: 472

Tee 5: 431

7th Hole

Par 4 · 479

Pro’s Tip:
The tee box on the seventh is located high on the cliff, where the elevation change will enhance a player’s carry. The left fairway bunker is between 255-283 yards to carry, depending on the tee box. The safe route is right of the bunker, which will leave a long-iron approach shot in over the creek. A miss long or left of this green typically means water.

Tee 1: 479

Tee 2: 458

Tee 3: 445

Tee 4: 436

Tee 5: 331

8th Hole

Par 3 · 162

Pro’s Tip:
The par 3 eighth provides players a little bit of relief, though, losing concentration along the river’s edge can be disastrous. If the green can be hit, it’ll give the putter a decent chance at birdie.

Tee 1: 162

Tee 2: 162

Tee 3: 122

Tee 4: 115

Tee 5: 102

9th Hole

Par 4 · 456

Pro’s Tip:
The final hole on the front nine is a par 4 that starts up a steep hill. The drive should be placed in the right-center of the fairway to avoid the oak brush and native grasses down the left. The downhill approach shot needs to avoid the bunkers short and left of the large, forgiving green.

Tee 1: 456

Tee 2: 415

Tee 3: 415

Tee 4: 382

Tee 5: 275

10th Hole

Par 4,5 · 519

Pro’s Tip:
A drive from the gold tee box requires an uphill, 194 yard carry to reach safety. The green is reachable on your second shot to this two-tiered green that slopes from back-to-front. For shorter hitters, it’s best to play to the right of the green, leaving an uphill pitch or chip to the hole.

Tee 1: 519

Tee 2: 519

Tee 3: 349

Tee 4: 336

Tee 5: 283

11th Hole

Par 3 · 212

Pro’s Tip:
This difficult par 3 plays straight into an intimidating, but beautiful backdrop of Mount Sopris. Players will want to avoid the signature pot bunker and deep sand bunkers that are strategically place in front of the green.

Tee 1: 212

Tee 2: 184

Tee 3: 184

Tee 4: 158

Tee 5: 126

12th Hole

Par 5 · 662

Pro’s Tip:
The twelfth is a demanding par 5 that requires a tee shot down the left-center of the fairway in order to avoid the fairway bunkers on the right. The second shot must be accurate enough to miss the pond on the right that starts around 190 yards from the green and runs all the way to the front of the putting surface.

Tee 1: 662

Tee 2: 640

Tee 3: 613

Tee 4: 551

Tee 5: 477

13th Hole

Par 4 · 462

Pro’s Tip:
This slightly downhill par 4 starts with a drive that must be placed down the left-center of the fairway to stay away from grass bunker on the right, which could result in a semi-blind second shot. From the fairway, the approach will play downhill to a small, undulated green with a marsh area running up the left side and leading to the Roaring Fork River.

Tee 1: 462

Tee 2: 442

Tee 3: 406

Tee 4: 375

Tee 5: 333

14th Hole

Par 3 · 147

Pro’s Tip:
The green on this relatively short par 3 is well-bunkered and two-tiered. Missing long will result in a delicate downhill bunker shot.

Tee 1: 147

Tee 2: 137

Tee 3: 137

Tee 4: 127

Tee 5: 96

15th Hole

Par 4 · 387

Pro’s Tip:
The fifteenth hole is a short par 4 that gives players several options from the tee. Longer hitters can play directly over the lake, which will leave them in front or on the green. Other players should aim left of the lake with a long-iron or fairway wood to leave a short second shot into a well-guarded, two-tiered green. Missing the green over the back can be dangerous as a steep slope leads down to the Roaring Fork River.

Tee 1: 387

Tee 2: 317

Tee 3: 293

Tee 4: 279

Tee 5: 252

16th Hole

Par 4 · 387

Pro’s Tip:
Players will want to place their drive down the right-center of the fairway to avoid the bunker and lake on the left side. The approach shot plays to a slightly elevated green that’s very shallow and guarded in front by a deep bunker.

Tee 1: 387

Tee 2: 359

Tee 3: 359

Tee 4: 314

Tee 5: 283

17th Hole

Par 4 · 450

Pro’s Tip:
This long, uphill par 4 is made significantly easier by steering clear of the bunker on the left side. The second plays uphill to a very undulated green. If players miss, they’ll want to keep their ball short of the green to leave a relatively easy chip or pitch up and on.

Tee 1: 450

Tee 2: 425

Tee 3: 397

Tee 4: 397

Tee 5: 331

18th Hole

Par 5 · 565

Pro’s Tip:
The final hole is a challenging par 5 with numerous risk and reward options. To start, the longer hitters might consider playing over the lake which is a 264 yard carry from the gold tees and 252 yards from the black. After that, a player would be left with a 200+ yard second shot to a green which hangs from a peninsula on the Roaring Fork River. Those who choose to play safe off the tee can take a fairway wood or long-iron left of the lake and lay-up to a comfortable distance to take on their third.

Tee 2: 554

Tee 3: 524
