St. Andrews at Westcliffe
Not that St. Andrews

I must be dreaming – I’m playing St. Andrews. Memories of Old Tom Morris, Bobby Jones, Jack, Arnie and Tiger. Seeing the Swilcan Bridge, the St. Andrews Hotel and the Firth of Forth.

Wait a minute – where is the bridge, the hotel and the Firth of Forth? I am dreaming – daydreaming about a different St. Andrews. The sign at the entrance of this course says, St. Andrews at Westcliffe. I must have taken a wrong turn at Colorado City.

Let me introduce you to the cow pasture at Hole #1. I had no idea where the “fairway” was and seriously, I felt as if I was just hitting around in an open field. This is a far cry from the original owners dream of creating a replica of the other St. Andrews on the family farm. Not coming to a theatre near you, Links of Dreams starring Kevin Costner.

The remainder of the course does get a little better and the holes are loosely defined. The greens are small and will present a challenge even to the low handicap golfer.

St. Andrews #4
Catch Bull at Four?

Along the 511 yard par 4 Hole #4, there is a great view of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and you also may run into the same “guy” who thought I was trespassing on his grounds.

St. Andrews #9
Hole #9 – Par 3 to finish your round

Double Bogey:  A unique golf course supposedly patterned after the original Scottish links. This 9-hole course is unique, but don’t expect the Swilcan Bridge, the Road Hole or the St. Andrews Hotel (or any hotel for that matter). Time for a nap and back to dreamland.

2019 Update:  This course is closed for business and currently up for sale. Anyone interested?

800 Copper Gulch Rd., Westcliffe, CO 81252;  719-783-9410

Wind, more wind, snow, cold, and more wind as we worked our way through Wyoming. If you’ve ever driven I-80 through Wyoming you know what I mean. Even though we didn’t play today, you can read my review of Little America Golf Course (from a prior round) at alwaytimefor9.com.  Day 2 of the #aurorauniversity golf bag travels. @jus10wyeth @auroraualumni
After 2 COVID-19 shots and a year away from travel, we are making our initial 2021 trip from our new home in Bend, OR to our old home in Ft. Collins, CO. We’ll be traveling the country looking to play with #aurorauniversity alumni. First stop is close to home at Juniper Golf Course in Redmond, OR. @auspartansports @auroraualumni @jus10wyeth.
A beautiful day in #centraloregon at @worthybrewing in Bend. Finally out and about after my 70+ two shot dose. Worthy was the first place we ate and drank during our initial stop in Bend. We liked it so much we decided to stay.
Meadow Lakes GC - Prineville, OR. First tournament of the year. Should have quit after the 2nd hole.
Awesome day in Central Oregon. The Greens at Redmond.
As we wait for the snow to melt, we travel back to 1998 and Sandpiper Golf Club in Santa Barbara, CA.
One more post from 2000 @pebblebeachresorts.
It’s difficult watching @attproam this time of year. It makes me want to go out and play, but all I see is this outside my door. Time for an Arizona trip.
Standing at the 8th tee box back in 2000. The boys 50/40 Trip. Two of us were 50 that year; two 40.  @pebblebeachresorts
