Fall
Colors Unparalleled at Arrowhead
Golf Course
|
Arrowhead Golf Club is one of the premier
golf courses in the Denver area. Arrowhead
has continually been one of the most
scenic venues due to the ancient sandstone
rocks that tower majestically above you.
Add Colorado's beautiful fall colors to
the picture and what you end up with is
one of the most photographed golf courses
in the country.
Designed
by Robert Trent Jones, Jr. in the early
'70s, Arrowhead has extreme elevation
changes typified by Hole #13. This
signature hole is a spectacular 174-yard
par 3, where more cameras are used than 7
irons. Golfers step to the tee box
sandwiched between two of Arrowhead's
signature red rocks, looking down to the
green 200 feet below. After golfers catch
their breath, club selection is crucial on
the tricky par three that plays up to two
clubs shorter than other 174-yard holes.
Wind will play a part of any high shot and
anything short of the green will end up in
one of the two green side bunkers, while
anything long will end up splashing in the
lake. In order to make birdie, golfers
must remember all putts at Arrowhead are
affected by the mountains and have a
tendency to break towards the city. Most
golfers would be happy hitting the green
and two putting for par.
Surprisingly,
Arrowhead offers a wide range of
reasonable green fees. The fees range from
an early bird back nine special of $35 to
a new Colorado Resident rate of $65/$75,
which will be effective in the months of
September and October. Call the Golf Shop
to obtain more information and book your
tee time today, 303-973-9614.
