The Denver area is known for its prestigious private clubs, but golfers without a membership can still find a great experience. The metro area's public golf scene offers tremendous diversity, from scenic plays to tournament-worthy layouts. Brandon Tucker offers up some of the best, including The Ridge at Castle Pines North, Plum Creek Golf Club and Red Hawk Ridge.
The Club at Chatham Hills is a private, Pete Dye design with a plum location just north of Indianapolis. Weaving over an idyllic landscape of beautiful topography, this new course is truly a bright spot in American golf.
The Greg Mastriona Golf Courses at Hyland Hills is truly a hidden gem and one of the best bargains in Colorado. The 45-hole complex -- which features an 18-hole design, a nine-hole design and two nine-hole, par-3 courses -- has hosted as many as 100,000 rounds in a season. David R. Holland has more on why Hyland Hills remains a favorite for golfers in the Denver area.
These are the places to play if you want to follow in the footsteps of greatness ... i.e. the legends of the PGA Tour's Champions circuit. And you don't have to be older than 50 to enjoy them.
