WAS an amazing course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 28, 2013 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Amazing views,the few remaining original holes.
Signs help you navigate from hole to hole.

Cons:

WARNIING-THIS COURSE HAS BEEN CHANGED! It's not same great course that designer Chris Brown put up. Chris had no input towards these new changes.This course used to be incredible. It was rated as one of the top ten courses in Colorado. But now many holes have been changed and/or severely shortened to accommodate for people who can't throw far. A few holes had to be moved due to mountain bike trails..the new hole locations aren't bad but they all are around 200-250ft. The old #9 was around 650ft. (cool shot through trees shooting across valley) is now around 200ft. A new #11 was added at 175ft.(putter throw). A new #14 was added at 250ft. New # 15 at 200ft. New # 17 at 200ft. All are short putt/approach shots. Some of the original holes have had the tee-boxes moved up anywhere from 50 to 150ft. Most holes can be reached with a mid-range/putter from the new tee-boxes. You can still play the old tee-boxes for these which is nice

The tee-boxes have always been bad( dirt/rocks)

Other Thoughts:

-I used to play this course a lot with my friends. It was worth the price to take the lift up. Since the changes I will not pay to play this course.

-The original tee-boxes should stay and the new tee-boxes should be alternate "family tee-boxes/kids/women". Two tee-boxes, a short and long.
-Sad to see such an epic course be broken down to something so mediocre.

used to be my favorite 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 25, 2013 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

nice location

Cons:

this course used to be epic my favorite of all that I had played. This course has been taken from something champion level to a novice course at best. There used to be an epic drive over trees and a creek that went from 650+ to 250 now. I will no longer pay money to play this course

Other Thoughts:

they should have just removed the course instead of gutting it. Guess I am going to phantom falls instead
