Red Sky Ranch’s Member-Guest tournament, The Trailblazer, was a huge succes this past weekend in Wolcott, Colorado.  Golfers from all over the country vied for the championship and enjoyed the Colorado splendor that is Red Sky Ranch. 

Red Sky Ranch's Member Clubhouse

As mentioned in the article below (see Related Articles), the author competed once again in this fun and exciting tournament.  We played 5 nine hole matches, winning each of them and compiling enough points to win our flight!!  By winning our flight, we advanced to the Shoot-Out, a 3 hole event with the top three scoring teams (of the twelve teams in the Shoot Out) advancing to the final.  This is where the proverbial wheels fell off and, unfortunately, we did not advance.  We truly enjoyed our golf experience, but sure wish we could have played better at the end.  Oh well, that’s why golf is a four lettered word.

The author and his golfing partner drowned their sorrows with a few beers and decided fly fishing would put a smile back on their faces.  And it sure did!

There are currently many great real estate options at Red Sky Ranch.  Homesite 85 , 2299 Red Sky Road, is located just above the 14th green of the Greg Norman designed championship course, with HUGE views in all directions.  Now listed at $695,000 it represents an excellent opportunity to own a legacy property in one of the BEST golf course communities anywhere!  Neighboring homes have been built, so the view corridors are preserved on this very buildable 2 acre homesite.

Red Sky Ranch, arguably the BEST golf experience in the Rocky Mountains, is hosting its annual Member – Guest Tournament this coming week July 15th through the 17th.  Having played in it several times now, it is a fun filled event with great golf,  amazing parties, comaraderie, and of course the gorgeous backdrop of Red Sky Ranch.  Colorado golf at its finest!

Red Sky Ranch's Norman Course

Set on over 860 acres of pristine alpine ranch land, the 2 championship courses (designed by Tom Fazio and Greg Norman respectively) will be highlighted over the weekend.  The format is awesome:  5 nine-hole matches are played against the different teams in each 6 team flight.  Points are cumulative w/ a win equalling 1 point, a halved hole equalling 0.5 points, and a loss equalling 0 points.  The winning teams (the team with the most points) of each flight advance to the “Shoot-Out”, a 3 hole scotch (alternating shot) format with the top few teams making the final; a war of attrition until only one team remains.  The pressure is ON as the gallery follows their favorite teams around the course.

Stay tuned for results; especially if the author’s team does well!!  (if not, don’t expect a play-by-play of all my bad shots!)

One Of Three Styles Of Homes To Be Built in Juniper Trail

The developer is selling 2,700+ sq ft 3 bed, 3.5bth homes on lot sizes averaging 3/4 acres, starting at $1.1mm in a community where trophy homes sell for more than $5mm. 

Here’s how it works.  Pick on of the 6 remaining lots for $195,000 to $325,000 and close on it before years end.  Pick from one of the floor plans (choice of 3)   and choose your finishes.  Secure your construction loan (your bank or the developer’s bank) and have the developer start on the home first thing in the spring of 2010.  The developer will hold the price of the home for one year.

Why do I think these are deals?  You will own a home in Red Sky for a fraction of what other homes sell for, you get to personalize your home and you are buying at today’s prices on a home that is a year from completion.
