Four Mile Ranch

View of the 3rd hole on the golf course

Richard had two days off this last week and went to the Four Mile Ranch golf course down in Canyon City. He wanted to try out his new putter and experience the golf course that was #4 for the best new places to play.

Richard: I'd been wanting to play this course since it had opened because all the reviews I read said the course had a very creative layout with lots of beautiful views of the surrounding mountains.

The course was a blast to play, there were some cool rock formations and on a couple of the holes the greens were shaped like a bowl, so if you hit a shot a little to the left or right, the balls would funnel down to the middle.  It was neat!

Since I was playing on a weekday in late March there weren't many people on the course so I was playing by myself, which gave me the chance to practice a bit and just relax and have fun.  The only problem was that near the end of the round it got very windy.  On one hole I had my ball on the tee and it was wiggling because the wind was blowing so hard.

It was a fun day and I can't wait to play the course again later in the summer when the grass is greener and a touch warmer, it was a little chilly out there.  But hey, I got to play golf in March so I'm not complaining.

Until next time...
