Many have argued against the use of trees at the inside corners of doglegs as unsound architecture. Does the same argument carry for geologic wonders like the red sandstone that juts out of the corner at Arrowhead Golf Course’s short par four No. 5? Considering that you can attempt carrying it to get a shorter distance in, we’ll give it the benefit of the doubt.
These awe-inspiring rock formations exist across the rest of the property, albeit in a less strategic sense. The course plays just over 6,600 yards from the tips so, in many cases, the distraction is the best hazard that the course has.
Two par threes revel in their setting. No. 11 is one of the easier holes on the course, in theory, at just 145 yards. Looming far in the background is one of the jagged sandstone spires. Even this hole pales in terms of photo opportunity when compared to No. 13, a 175-yard hole that plays between two stone formations off the tee and down to a green backed by a pond (with even more geologic wonder lurking in the background).
You’ll get one last signature view at No. 16, where you can see downtown Denver, rising 25 miles in the distance.
