Broadmoor History | East Course

Hole 1
A challenging uphill starting hole where par is an excellent score. The lengthy second shot to an elevated green is difficult. The green slopes severely back to front, keep the ball between you and the mountain for an uphill putt.

Hole 2
A short par 4 that is well guarded with strategically placed bunkers. Although an easy hole from tee to green, the putting is difficult at best. The green slopes harshly from right to left away from the Mountains. An uphill putt is paramount.

Hole 3
A downhill par 5 with a large landing area. Golfers are faced with the question to lay up or go for the green which is guarded by a pond in front and a difficult swale behind the green.

Hole 4
A short par 3 over water. This green is arguably the most difficult on the East course. Golfers need to keep their shot below the hole for a good birdie opportunity. However, this green is extremely fast and shots to the front can easily spin back into the hazard.

Hole 5
A 431 yard straight away par 4 that is more uphill than it appears. Golfers must avoid strategically placed bunkers on the left and trees on the right. The green slopes left to right and one must place approach shots to have an uphill putt.

Hole 6
Golfers are treated to a short dogleg left par 4 en route to an uphill approach. The green is heavily guarded by deep bunkers in front as well as a swale behind the green. This green is severely sloped from back to front and left to right. It is arguably the most difficult on the golf course.

Hole 7
A dogleg left par 4 requires a drive down the right center in order to have a flat lie. This large elevated green is guarded by two front-side bunkers. Golfers are often fooled by the uphill approach however, shots missed long are penalized.

Hole 8
The green on this uphill par three is guarded by a hazard on the left side as well as a bunker in front. The green slopes drastically from back to front and is two tiered. An uphill putt is optimal on this difficult green.

Hole 9
This dogleg left par 5 is a strategy hole. A perfect drive placed on the left side of the fairway will give golfers the choice to go for the green in two. However, the fairway slopes severely left to right and the second shot will be played with the ball below the golfers feet. The green is guarded by a pond in front as well as strategically placed bunkers.

Hole 10
This sharp dogleg left is shaped by a lateral hazard down the left side. A well placed drive avoiding the fairway bunkers will give golfers the opportunity to fire at the pin on this severely downhill approach.

Hole 11
This long par 4 will prove to be a difficult scoring hole. Placement down the left side of the fairway off the tee is key. Fairway is tree lined and guarded by a bunker on the left. The elevated green is three tiered and very slick to putt. Golfers must place their approach shot in the correct quadrant of the green to have a good chance for birdie.

Hole 12
This long downhill par 3 measuring 238 yards demands accurate club selection. Golfers must hit long irons into a shallow green that is only 28 yards from front to back at most. The green holds true to the Broadmoor Golf folklore as it breaks severely away from Cheyenne Mountain.

Hole 13
This long dogleg right will require accurate placement of the tee ball. This tight fairway is guarded by fairway bunkers both right and left leaving a long approach into an elevated green.

Hole 14
An elegant par 4 measuring 429 yards. Number 14 boasts one of the smaller greens on the course. The uphill approach from the fairway will give many a great chance at birdie. But, golfers must first navigate the bunker placement in the fairway.

Hole 15
A true risk and reward tee shot will determine the length of the golfers approach shot. Long drives down the left center prove to be optimal for an easy approach to the green. The green slopes left to right away from the Mountains and is deceivingly fast.

Hole 16
This downhill par-3 demands accurate shot placement. The green slopes severely left to right and golfers must keep the ball below the pin.

Hole 17

Hole 18
Driving will be at a premium on this par-4 with a tight fairway guarded by a lake approximately 120 yards from the green and out of bounds extending down the right side. The green slopes from back to front and left to right protected by a bunker on the right front
