Cheyenne Shadows Golf Club, Fort Carson, CO

Very nice course and good value. Greens are superb. There was lots of play but it moved along quickly. A great military course that's open to civilians, too.

The management should be fired! The course layout is beautiful. It is a crying shame that the greens twice a year are plugged with a fairway plugger and then the greens are filled with sand. (So much sand that it has killed/damaged the greens and putting is like sand greens for weeks). In the last 2 years the fairways have been left to winter kill! Rendering the course as a cow pasture for 1/2 of the summer. If this is the first time you are playing it, ask these questions before getting a tee time. 1. When did you plug the greens? 2 month ago or longer? Pay for the round! Ask some fo the player coming off the course if the fairways are green. For 35 to 60 dollars why play a cow pasture. Peterson and the AFA offers so much more for the price. Until they fire FRANK the course will never measure up!

Beautiful course. One of the best kept courses I have seen on an Army installation. You can not beat the view of the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountians. As the name suggest, you are in the shadow of Cheyenne Mountian the whole time. The course itself as a lot of elevation changes. On one hole you are about to tee off about 100 feet above the fairway and then the next hole you are about to tee off almost straight up hill. GPS system in the cart is ok, but I find myself trying to ignore it because I end up relying on it too much and then when I am on a course without it, I have trouble judging distance with the naked eye. The best thing about their GPS system, it is tied to the grill, so you are able to order food from the fairways (or rough as in my case) ahead of time and it is ready for pickup when you make the turn. But over all a fun challenging course.

Well maintained, beautiful scenery course. Has its challenges, check for tournaments before scheduling a tee time.
