Lessons
Short lessons, matched to the miss
Driving8 min
Keep the driver in play above 6,000 feet
- 1.Tee it slightly lower and move the ball half a ball back—thin air exaggerates a high face strike.
- 2.Pick a start line on a target at 150 yards, not the horizon. Mountain backdrops distort alignment.
- 3.Swing at 90% for ten balls. Colorado carry rewards center contact more than raw speed.
Drill: Gate drill: two headcovers a clubhead apart just ahead of the ball. Ten swings starting the ball through the gate on your target line.
Approach7 min
Adjust carry numbers for elevation
- 1.Take 5–8% off your sea-level carry distances above 5,000 feet—re-check with your wedges first.
- 2.Into a downhill green, land it one club shorter than the number and let the slope finish the job.
- 3.When the pin sits on a tier, commit to the fat side. Short-siding at altitude is where doubles live.
Drill: Ladder drill at the range: hit 7-iron to 100, 120, then 140 yards, calling your adjusted number out loud before each swing.
Short game6 min
Scramble from Colorado's tight and sticky lies
- 1.From dormant or tight turf, hinge earlier and deliver less loft—let the bounce, not the leading edge, meet the ground.
- 2.In thick rough around greens, open the face and add speed. Deceleration is the real killer.
- 3.Play the lowest shot that gets the ball on the green. Air time at altitude is harder to judge.
Drill: One-ball scramble test: drop 9 balls around a practice green, play each out, and count how many finish inside 6 feet.
Putting6 min
Pace control on fast, sloped mountain greens
- 1.Read putts from the low side—Colorado greens often break harder toward the valley than they look.
- 2.On downhill putts, pick a spot two feet short of the hole and roll the ball to die there.
- 3.Match your backstroke length to the speed, not the distance. Short-stroke pop is what runs putts past.
Drill: String-line drill: set a 10-foot breaking putt, roll 5 balls trying to stop each one within a club-length past the hole.
Course management7 min
Play the wind and the altitude, not the scorecard
- 1.Afternoon mountain wind usually blows upslope—re-check direction on every tee, not just the first.
- 2.Take one more club into elevated greens and swing smooth. Thin air already adds carry.
- 3.Choose your miss before you choose your target. On firm Colorado turf, the short side rarely saves par.
Drill: Two-ball decision drill on the course: play your 'safe' ball and your 'aggressive' ball for 6 holes and compare scores.
Mental game5 min
Reset after the hole that stole two strokes
- 1.Give yourself ten steps off the green to react, then the hole is over—name the lesson in one sentence.
- 2.Before the next tee shot, go through your full routine even if you're angry. Routine beats emotion.
- 3.Judge the decision, not the bounce. Good swings finish in bad spots on mountain courses.
Drill: Breath reset: one slow four-count inhale, four-count exhale behind the ball before every shot for three holes.
