Wonderful Golf Course in Beatiful Setting in Eagle, CO

For those of us that play golf, playing a new course is always something special.  And Adam’s Rib Ranch did not disappoint!!  Located south of Eagle, running along the beautiful Brush Creek, Adam’s Rib Country Club has a gorgeous Tom Weiskopf designed golf course that is truly a delight.

Greeted by a friendly and enthusiastic staff, we warmed up by hitting balls at the elevated driving range and putting on the manicured practice green.  And once on the course, the scenery and wildlife grabbed our attention as much as the 18 holes.

The course feels as though it has existed for decades, not just recently constructed.  It wanders through the alpine ranch land, capturing some good elevation changes.  And on the back nine, it descends to the valley floor to cross and flirt with Brush Creek.  There are several forced carries that were fun (until we hit into the wetlands!) and challenging.

We ended up with a so-so 1 under, since the format was a scramble.  (2 birdies and a bogey)  Highlights from the round:  John Nichols crushing a fairway wood to the 18th green into a fierce headwind, Matej Hodul’s 4 iron, Doug’s putter, and Hank Sender’s driver off the deck.  Truly a great time was had by all!!
