I played some Colorado golf a few years ago. Don't remember what I shot, but the places was beautiful. 

A friend just played Keystone, and told me to put it on my list. I thought I might have played Keystone a few years ago, but he tells me it's a newer course. (?)

Keystone has two courses: the river course and the ranch course. Supposedly, the river course is better. I've only played the ranch course, which I adored.

Okay at Fossil, horribly at the Raven.  I think mostly because I know Fossil Trace a bit better.  I've played it about a dozen times over the last 30 years, so I know how to avoid some of the potential pitfalls. 

I'd never even seen The Raven Club before - kind of a funky course with some greens which are not receptive to even a pretty good shot.  I didn't bring what passes for my "A" game these days, so it was even more frustrating to see poor results when I did hit some good shots.  Both my brother and I were burned more than once after playing what should have been pretty nice shots.

Played 18 holes at Kings Deer this week.

https://www.kingsdeergolfclub.com/

One of the best “value” rounds I have ever got to play. For less than $40 bucks I got to play 18, my wife got to ride along, and I got a souvenir golf ball. I had no idea from the website that the course had as much elevenation change as it did. Lots of elevated tee shots, and even some good uphill holes. Interesting design that could be considered “target golf”.   Some of the nicest mountain homes I have ever seen scattered throughout the course. The back nine had better views than the front, but the great scenery was throughout the round. I recommend it to anyone in the Colorado Springs/Monument Area.

    • Just curious about people's thoughts on approach shots.  Now, I'm talking about a clear view of the green, not behind a bunker or other obstruction where you have to get the ball really high, and drop like a cat. When out 125,100, 75, 50 yards and less, do you prefer: using a single club like 9i or PW, and feeling the distance to get on the green in your swing using different clubs (9i, PW, GW, etc.) with the same swing part of me thinks that if I can get really comfortable with my favorite club, I can adapt my swing to get it on the green from those distances, especially a light pitch with a 9i from 50 yards, as opposed of hitting a really good full swing with a SW.  
    • I've had fun every time I've gotten together with any of the SandTrap folks, I'm definitely interested in doing it again if its within reasonable driving distance.
    • I listened to Dr. Norton's interview/podcast last year on IIRC, Huberman. Worth listening and yes, demonizing HFCS or sugars in general as independent agents of obesity is at best misinformed. But from a dependent risk perspective the easiest thing for me to remember as a good reason to control sugar intake is that those who tend to have high sugar intake also tend to have high caloric intake.  Outside of genetic factors and type of calories to an extent, in general, caloric surplus continues to be a singularly consistent factor in determining how overweight you are going to. I don't care if you fast for 16-18 hours. or any other time-managed eating. You can only eat so much before you start storing more than you will ever use.
