Pade • [email protected] With this issue of Colorado Golf Magazine, we are proud to feature the historic Solheim Cup. The Solheim is a truly prestigious stage on which the top women golfers from the United States and Europe play, and for 2013 that stage is set here in our state. This year, with Colorado experiencing one of the worst fires in our history, the Solheim takes on additional importance as a portion of the tournament’s June ticket sales are being donated to the Colorado Professional Fire Fighters Foundation. We hope everyone will make it out to Colorado Golf Club in Parker to watch the match-play competition, which takes place the week of Aug. 13. Colorado has a long, proud history of supporting women’s golf. In 2011, it was the U. S. Women’s Open, when we watched So Yeon Ryu defeat Hee Kyung Seo in a three-hole playoff. In fact, Colorado has played host to the U.S. Women’s Open several times. And from 1972 to 1986, the Columbia Savings LPGA National Pro-Am was played here, rotating through many of our great golf courses, including Green Gables, Rolling Hills, Pinehurst, Columbine, Lone Tree, Meridian and Glenmoor Country Club. 8 ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine • JulyAuGust2013 The Solheim Cup is one you don’t want to miss. This international event will certainly be historic and will once again put Colorado front and center in the world of golf. To read more, turn to our coverage starting on pg. 12.. Also in this issue, we feature some amazing restaurants in the Vail and Beaver Creek area. Of course, Vail and Edwards are also hotbeds for golf. At an altitude of more than 8,000 feet, golf balls seem to fly forever, but that’s just one reason to try Colorado’s superb mountain courses. After your round, you can enjoy some of the state’s top dining spots, too. Our restaurant coverage starts on pg. 34, and our feature on Vail Golf Club begins on pg. 30. As a publication dedicated to the golf lifestyle, we also cover fashion, jewelry, luxury automobiles and so much more. We also continuously update our directories and club information to keep you abreast of the latest golf news.

Confusion. Second-guessing. That hot feeling that creeps up your spine and into your brain, setting your hair on fire and forcing you to break out in a feverish sweat; the realization that you’ve just made a massive and uncorrectable mistake. Those emotions were rampant amongst the U.S. Team members when Azahara Munoz dropped Angela Stanford in the decisive match that handed the Solheim Cup back to the Europeans at Ireland’s Killeen Castle in September 2011. The 1513 win was the European’s first in four competitions, and sweet revenge for their repeat captain, Alison Nicholas. similar soul-crushing sensations while surrounded by the beauty of Parker’s Colorado Golf Club seems incongruous and incomprehensible to U.S. players, who have yet to fail in cup competitions on U.S. soil. While Munoz’s win was the match that secured the cup for the Europeans, there were many more ingredients to the mix that baked the American’s cake. The final day started badly for the U.S. even before the first ball was struck; Cristie Kerr, who’d played with an inflamed wrist though the first two days of competition, determined the pain was too great to play in singles, and her match was forfeited to Karen Stupples. European Captain Liselotte Neumann and U.S. Captain Meg Mallon Alternatively, it stunned the Americans. Despite the 8-8 scorline after two days of competition, the visitors felt they had one hand on the cup heading into singles matches, believing they had a clear advantage in the format. “I think our gals played their hearts out. We couldn’t ask any more of them,” U.S. Captain Rosie Jones said after the fateful final day of play. “Europe just played better than us in that last 35 minutes.” Players draw motivation from all manner of sources, but one thing is certain. The loss has simmered in the bellies of the Americans like a smoldering chunk of coal for the last many months. It’s doubtless that fire, combined with an extreme aversion to the feelings of defeat generated by the 2011 outcome, will dominate large portions of their consciousness as they prepare for the next competition August 16-18. To experience The Americans were also dealt a stiff setback when Paula Creamer and Stacy Lewis, two of the team’s top players, lost their matches to Catriona Matthew and Sophie Gustafson. Matthew drilled Creamer 6 and 5, while Gustafson defeated Lewis, 2-up. The U.S. was still in position to win when a second rain delay gave the Europeans a chance to rally around one another. After a three-way pep talk, Suzann Pettersen, Caroline Hedwall, and Munoz each returned to the course and got results from their matches. Pettersen made three straight birdies to rally for a 1-up win over Michelle Wie, Hedwall was 2-down with two to play but came back to halve with Ryann O’Toole, and Munoz erased an early 1-down deficit to defeat Stanford, 1-up. Jones took on a boatload of criticism after the tournament for the handling of the Kerr situation. However, both she and Kerr defended their positions, saying the injury cropped up just before JulyAuGust2013 • ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine 13 onCover because Kerr was not rested the first two days, playing all four team matches. But both insisted afterward they wouldn’t have done anything different if they could do it again. “I checked with her every single match to make sure,” said Jones. “Right before, that was my last thing I did right before I submitted my pairings was to check on Cristie, because she was playing in some of the last matches, to make sure she was ready to go. She felt good. She played well.” And with that most recent history, the competition now comes to Colorado, just a couple of years after the U.S. Women’s Open was contested at The Broadmoor Resort. While the team is still being determined, U.S. Captain Meg Mallon is already working with a couple of givens: she’ll have highly-motivated players, and she certainly won’t want to wax philosophically about a second-straight U.S. defeat. _______________________________ Matt McKay is staff writer with Colorado Golf Magazine. the competition, and they decided to play on and address the pain and swelling between rounds. Had the injury been declared prior to the start of play, the U.S. would have had the opportunity to replace her. The pair was also second-guessed JulyAuGust2013 • ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine 15 GamePlay olorado has the fastest growing rate of childhood poverty in the nation. With poverty comes the reality that many Colorado kids don’t have the means to receive regular meals. Not to mention healthy meals. While hunger at any age is debilitating, it is especially hard on children. We all bear the costs down the road when children aren’t nourished at a young age. Luckily, there are folks who have a heart and passion for fighting childhood hunger in our great state. Enter Joe and Debbie Sakic. C United States. More importantly, in Sanctuary’s 16-year history, charity golf tournaments have raised millions of dollars for important causes. Friday evening, August 23, the Sakics will host an elegant celebration of dining, entertainment and high-end auction items. The Joe and Debbie Sakic Bringing Hope to the Table Celebration, Presented by CoBank, will take place at the Marriott Denver Tech Center. Comedian, John Reep, will provide the evening’s entertainment. The event kicks off with a cocktail reception at 16 years ago, hockey all star, Joe Sakic, and wife, Debbie, decided to become a voice for Colorado’s low income kids and have made a lasting impact on childhood hunger in our state. Partnering with Food Bank of the Rockies (FBR) resulted in two annual fundraising events that have become the financial backbone for FBR’s children’s programs. Stunningly beautiful Sanctuary is the meeting grounds for the first event, The Joe Sakic Celebrity Classic Golf Tournament, presented by RE/MAX. On Thursday, August 22, celebrities and sponsors will join Joe for his 16th annual tournament. Dave and Gail Liniger, co-founders of RE/MAX, created Sanctuary on a wildlife refuge in Colorado’s Front Range for the exclusive use of selected charities and invited guests. Sanctuary has been rated by Golf Digest and Golfweek among the top golf courses in the 6:00pm, followed by dinner. Marc Moser of the Altitude Radio Network will emcee the evening’s festivities. Sport Radio 104.3 The Fan is the 2013 Radio Partner for the event. FBR has been fighting hunger and feeding hope for 34 years and currently provides food to nearly 1,100 partner agency programs. Last year alone, over 88,000 meals per day were provided to our neighbors in need. 42% of those served through FBR’s partner agencies are children. Over the course of the partnership with the Sakics, FBR has been fortunate enough to provide over over 15 million meals to Colorado children in need. Childhood hunger is a problem that is solvable. The Sakics are continuing to work toward ending the pains of hunger felt by Colorado children in need. You can help. Join Joe and Debbie this August to fight hunger, feed hope and have a great time in the process. JulyAuGust2013 • ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine 17 GamePlay Golf spots are sold out.

First, the heat doesn’t bother me. Second, I go prepared to stay cool! As a “Gadget Guy” I am often asked what I pack to keep cool, and this summer edition of Colorado Golf Magazine is the perfect time to share my secrets. Some of these items I keep in my golf bag, some are waiting when I get home. Chill Skinz The Chill Skinz is a towel designed to keep you cool. Not only is it great for golfers, runners, tennis players and any other summer athlete, it is also great for any hot day. Simply wet the Chill Skinz with cold water, squeeze out the excess water before you leave and slip it in your bag. When needed, take the Chill Skinz out, shake to activate the towel and apply it to the back of your neck (or other heated areas). When activated, the towel drops to about 20 degrees cooler than the outside temperature. Check it out online at chillskinz.com Cool Off Another cool product is Cool Off. You can easily store this handy little wipe in your golf bag, backpack or purse. Its 17 natural herbs help keep the cool feeling going after the initial application. Whenever you need a quick chill, simply open the Cool Off pack wipe and feel the relief. You’ll be amazed at the coolness this tiny package provides, and the handy size means you can easily fit several of these in your pocket to last the entire day. For more information on Cool Off, log on to thequickchill.com Urburn Sunburn If you do happen to get burned, you should check out Unburn Sunburn relief. Heck, that’s just fun to say. Take it from a true Irishman, I know what works on a sunburn. Unburn is formulated with 2.5 percent lidocaine to provide fast pain relief (remember the TV show Emergency? Those guys prescribed lidocaine for almost everything!). Unburn Sunburn relief is made by Water-Jel. waterjel.com 20 ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine • JulyAuGust2013 HotGear Brush on Block Being Irish, I can get a sunburn under a 100-watt light bulb. I could probably use SPF 1,000,000 and still get a burn. We all know we should use sunblock, and we typically spray on gobs and gobs before heading outside in the morning. The key, however, is what you do later in the day. I found a product called Brush on Block. This isn’t your normal sunscreen. As a matter of fact, it looks more like a make-up brush than sunblock and its design is one key to its success. Think about the times you’ve had sunscreen in your eye, and how much it stings and burns. With Brush on Block, you brush it on as if you are applying make-up (guys, just accept this as fact). With the easy-apply brush, you avoid getting sunblock in your eyes, and the sunblock doesn’t run when you sweat. Since it is made with minerals, you hardly know you’re wearing sunscreen. Not only is this perfect for around your face and neck, it’s also a bonus for guys like me with thinning hair— it easily covers that bald spot! Women can keep Brush on Block in their handbag, men can slide it in their satchel (Indiana Jones has one) and keep one in their golf bag as well. That makes it easy to continue applying it throughout the day as necessary. For all of the SPF facts and mineral information, go to brushonblock.com Margaritaville Cordless Frozen Concoction Maker When it comes to frozen drinks, I’m a loser. The blender never seems to chop the ice right or the beverageto-ice ratio is off. Fortunately, the brainiacs at Margaritaville have made me a better bartender with the ultimate Margaritaville Cordless Frozen Concoction Maker. While I initially hesitated to call it a frozen concoction maker (a moniker relating to Jimmy Buffet’s famed song around which his chain of restaurants and associated products have been built), there is no way I can call it a mere blender. First, it runs off a heavy-duty 18-volt NiCd battery, so it shaves ice and perfectly blends ingredients to create up to 60 restaurant-quality frozen drinks on a single charge. Its rugged, portable design makes it easy to take poolside, out on a boat, tailgating or anywhere else you can think of. Here’s how easy it is to make your favorite frozen beverage: First, place the ice in the top ice holder; next, mix your favorite beverage in the shatterproof pitcher; finally, select for one, two or three glasses and hit the button. The Margaritaville Cordless Frozen Concoction Maker does all the work for you. It’s powerful, easy to use and so far I have yet to outdrink the battery! This is a gadget that I have been personally testing every weekend this summer—and it’s paradise unplugged! To get your own for your next 19th-hole celebration, visit margaritavillecargo.com Finally, I want to point out that, although cool, none of these products are a replacement for good hydration. It’s especially important during the summer that you drink plenty of water throughout the day. Then, keep the above products on hand to protect you from the sun, cool you in soaring temperatures or relax you at day’s end. Ahhhh, summer. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mike Conrad is a contributing writer to Colorado Golf Magazine.

Talents. Resources. Everyone has something they can contribute to their local communities. Luckily for Colorado residents, the greater Denver area’s hub of non-profits and medical facilities offer a variety of highly-renowned charity options to choose from. From June to August, the following four charity events will feature live entertainment, auctions, and world-class golf, while raising thousands of dollars for some of the state’s most worthy causes. Play a Round for Kids The Ridge at Castle Pines North Castle Rock, Colo. June 20, 2013 www.MSVhome.org Mount Saint Vincent, a Denver-based children’s treatment center, is hosting its 7th annual Play a Round for Kids, an 18hole golf tournament at Castle Rock’s The Ridge at Castle Pines North. 22 ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine • JulyAuGust2013 Featuring four sets of tees, ranging in distance from 5,011 to 7,013 yards, the Tom Weiskopf-design has been recognized by Colorado Golf Magazine as the state’s best public course, and by Golf Digest, receiving 4 stars. The tournament’s $250 registration fee will include range balls, a silent auction, lunch, and an awards ceremony at The Ridge Bar and Grill. Proceeds will support Mount Saint Vincent’s mission – to treat PlayWorthy and educate children, aged 5 to 12, who have suffered from abuse, mental illness, neglect, or trauma. “We had so much interest in last year’s event that we decided to expand this year’s tournament to a double-shotgun,” said Donor Relations and Events Coordinator Angela Frederick. “We’re expecting a full field of players.” Craig Hospital/RE/MAX, LLC Invitational Golf Tournament Sanctuary Sedalia, Colo. August 1, 2013 www.craighospital.org/foundation The 16th annual Craig Hospital/RE/MAX, LLC Invitational Golf Tournament will be held at the pristine Sanctuary golf course, a wildlife refuge known for its elk, fox, and mountain lion sightings. Hosted by Englewood’s Craig Hospital, acknowledged throughout the world for its specialty research and rehabilitation for patients with spinal cord and traumatic brain injuries, the tournament is supported by RE/MAX founders and Sanctuary owners, Dave and Gail Liniger. Since 1997, the tournament has raised roughly $2 million in support of Craig Hospital, a private, non-profit facility that provides services like inpatient and outpatient medical care and neurosurgical rehab. “Our patients and their families travel from throughout the United States and around the world to access Craig’s programs and services because our patient outcomes are unparalleled among other similar treatment programs,” said Mike Fordyce, Craig President and CEO. Tournament registration will begin at 9 a.m., followed by a brunch buffet. A shotgun start will then occur at 11:10 a.m. All golfers will participate in an 18-hole, modified scramble, with prizes given for low team net and gross. Once tournament play has concluded, participants will be treated to dinner and an awards ceremony. SaddleUp! and Pack Your Bags, a Denver Suitcase Party Mayo Aviation Hangar, Centennial Airport Englewood, Colo. August 2, 2013 www.saddleupfoundation.org In 2002, Jim and Shery McDonaldGalbreath, co-founders of Colorado Golf Club, founded SaddleUp! Foundation, the Denver area’s largest recreational therapeutic riding program, created solely for children and adults with special needs.

Four party guests will win a weekend trip to Paso Robles, Calif.’s Bianchi Family vineyards, receiving tours and spa treatments, while savoring the vineyard’s finest wines. Four other guests will receive a two night stay at Vail’s Sonnenalp Resort. The weekend getaway will likely include golf, spa treatments, and dinner at the acclaimed Restaurant Kelly Liken. All party guests will arrive with suitcases, fully prepared to leave Colorado if they are chosen for the vineyard trip, as the four chosen guests will fly directly from the airport to California. The party will begin at 6 p.m., with entertainment and a live auction occurring between 7:15 and 9:15 p.m., as the giveaway winners are chosen and announced. Friends FORE Hospice Golf Tournament Lakewood Country Club Lakewood, Colo. August 5, 2013 www.hospiceofsaintjohn.org Founded in 1977, Lakewood’s Hospice of St. John is currently the 2nd oldest inpatient hospice in the United States. Dedicated to compassionate care, the hospice offers integrative therapies, including pain treatment and palliative care, to patients, whether or not they are able to pay.

All golfers understand the importance of self-confidence. They must believe in their ability to meet the challenges of the task at hand each time they step up to the ball. Confidence, however, changes dayto-day and even shot to shot. It is easy to feel confident when things are going right; however, when performance is not at its best or the golfer is not experiencing success, confidence can be easily shaken. Famous football coach Vince Lombardi once said, “Everyone is confident when they are winning. Real confidence occurs when athletes are losing but are still able to maintain self-belief, or when they learn from their failures or mistakes and move on.” The Path to Confidence Golfers who do not deal well with adversity or setbacks have a difficult time maintaining a positive mental attitude, which ultimately results in decreased performance. In the field of sports psychology, most of the research on self-confidence has been based on Stanford Professor Emeritus Albert Bandura’s theory of selfefficacy, defined as “belief in one’s capabilities to organize and execute the courses of action required to produce given attainments.” For golfers, there are two elements of the research to consider. First, there are three types of sport-confidence: cognitive efficiency, resilience, and physical skills and training. All three of these are supported by nine sources of sport-confidence: demonstration of ability, mastery, social support, vicarious experience, coach’s leadership, situational favorableness, environmental comfort, physical self-presentation, and physical/mental preparation. Prior success is directly related to personal mastery and thought to be the greatest influence on self-confidence. Interestingly, the research shows striking differences between men and women. Men ultimately demonstrate higher levels of confidence, as they are more concerned with physical/mental preparation and winning. Research suggests that women are more concerned with self-presentation, environmental comfort and social support than their male counterparts, as well as personal goals and standards. Research also consistently shown that solid skills can be overruled by self-doubts, causing even the most skilled individuals to perform poorly under circumstances that undermine their belief in themselves. You’ve seen that happen time and time again to top pros on Tour. Important of Practicing Mental Skills There are numerous factors that contribute to confidence or a lack of it. Having an understanding of these factors can help you maintain a positive mindset for performance. Accomplished golfers attribute great performance to enhanced mental skills. However, most golfers fail to practice their mental skills 24 ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine • JulyAuGust2013 in the same manner that they practice their physical skills. This could be due to a lack of motivation or understanding of how to implement mental practice. Yet mental skills are just as important, or even more important, to successful performance, and it’s not as hard to practice them as one might think. There are two strategies for improving mental skills: imagery and observational learning. According to Bandura, “most human behavior is learned by observation through modeling.” When we are children, this comes naturally. We “watch and do.” But as we get older, we seem to have a need to try and cognitively understand what we are trying to accomplish. This is not always the best method for learning a motor skill, such as the golf swing. Can-Do Strategy Here’s a strategy to try: Identify a professional golfer whose swing most resembles your desired swing. It could be the tempo or the style that you wish to model. Naturally, it should be a swing that is realistic to your abilities, one that you have assessed with your golf and fitness instructors. Find a video of your model swing and watch it before you begin your practice session or your round. Watch the video as often as possible, especially just prior to executing your swing. Your goal is to try and visualize the model swing while executing your swing, as opposed to trying to process verbal or technical information. The more you practice visualizing your desired swing, the better you will become at visualizing, and that ultimately should translate into better performance. __________________________________________ Lynn Beasley, PsyD(c), CSCS is a contributing writer to Colorado Golf Magazine Mountainescapes coloradogolf.com Keystone Golf Resort By Lisa Perry Mountainescapes G olf resorts may win accolades in a particular area, but it’s hard to find one with “best” awards across the board: resort course, overall facility, customer service, and even environmental efforts. Keystone Resort Golf has been honored for all-of-the-above and more—even its stay-andplay packages have been singled out. Philip Tobias, PGA head professional at Keystone Resort, says customer service can make a good golf course become great. But Keystone’s combination of stellar facilities augmented by a commitment to customer care takes golf beyond the usual skyhigh resort expectations. “It’s our mission to deliver the experience of a lifetime to all guests, whether at the golf course or for a bike or paddleboat ride,” says Tobias. “Resort staff have that professional bearing as well as the friendly smile we’re all looking for on our vacation.” Keystone Golf is the only 36-hole venue in Summit County. “We have two completely different golf courses, so close in proximity they almost touch,” says Tobias. “But you wouldn’t know it if you were at River teeing up and suddenly transported to Ranch. That’s how different they are. Our crew takes fantastic care of the golf courses, providing the best possible playing conditions you can achieve in the mountains.” Opened in 1988, Ranch Golf Course is the flagship of Keystone Golf, designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr. “It has a unique personality for mountain golf: mountain links. The Ranch does JulyAuGust2013 • ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine 27 Mountainescapes have a few elevation changes but they are very subtle. When I go out to Ranch, I have the feeling of a stress-free atmosphere with wide-open spaces and 360-degree views of the surrounding mountain ranges, no matter which hole I’m standing on. It’s what brings us all to Colorado. It’s a special place with the original homestead still standing.” River Golf Course plays through trees with significant elevation changes. “The first hole is a pretty hefty elevation drop onto the fairway with a view of the Continental Divide,” he says. “There’s a transition from the ‘Mountain 9’ front and ‘River 9’ back where the course lives up to its name wrapping around the Snake River. You finish up on a Par 5 that overlooks Lake Dillon and Buffalo Mountain, a great hole. You can reach the green in two, with the possibility of an eagle or birdie.” Tobias says, “Golfers, especially first-timers, say the scenery is fabulous, we have friendly service and how easy it is to book a teetime. The reservations staff know the entire resort and there is a golf concierge who specializes in golf packages. Our stay-and-play packages are second to none. Nothing can compete with our level of lodging: hotels to condos and private homes.” Managed by Vail Resorts, Keystone’s golf packages include accommodations from Keystone Lodge to luxury properties in Breckenridge and Vail. The resort also hosts golf events, weddings and conferences. “We have the largest conference center in the mountains, plus the best lodging, spa, two golf courses and outdoor activities. We have it all.” This season, Ranch course forward tees have been adjusted to play at 4,600 yards, shortened from last year’s 5,500. “We do a great job of accommodating all abilities and experience levels,” says Tobias. “We brought in junior tees that play from the fairways. You’d have a hard time finding holes more than 155 yards for a Par 5.” A newly remodeled clubhouse awaits golfers in 2013. “It’s beautiful,” says Tobias. “I have a feeling repeat guests who walk 28 ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine • JulyAuGust2013 through the door won’t recognize it.” Instructional programs include SNAG (Starting New at Golf), focusing heavily on kids and introducing golf as a family activity. “It’s a kind of miniature golf on steroids,” says Tobias, using irons, putters and a pseudo tennis ball. A six-hole course for all ages opens this season, winding around the practice facility. The resort hosts a women-specific golf day on Aug. 21 featuring LPGA Hall of Famer Nancy Lopez.

Golfers are clued in to the venue’s mindset when they call for a teetime—the phone greeting immediately cites a pace-of-play goal for the day. The staff is dedicated to providing a thoroughly fun experience for golfers, and it begins with time management. “We have a unique pace-of-play program in its fourth year of implementation,” says Director of Golf Alice Plain. “We’re a busy course and prior to the program, five-hour rounds were pretty regular.

We’re public and have a lot of regulars, but we treat everyone like they’re a member of a private club, and try to exceed everyone’s expectations to give them an experience they’ll remember. The atmosphere is fun-loving and genuinely friendly.” Instructional programs in place for 2013 are geared toward both Vail Valley residents and visitors alike, and include a variety of junior programs and even overnight camps. Plain created a program, new this year, especially for girls ages 13-17. Adults can participate in a weekly couples clinic on Friday evenings that includes instruction along with drinks and appetizers on the driving range, and a new weekly women’s clinic called Lessons, Ladies and Libations. A weekly threeperson “play with a pro” class happens on Monday evenings, and brand-new golfers can participate in the PGA’s national Get Golf Ready program: three days of instruction for $99. Happy Valley Grill is open daily for lunch onsite with Chef Hunter Smith at the helm—he’s a former Food Network “Iron Chef America” participant. Plain was honored this year as the first woman to win the PGA West Chapter’s Bill Strausbaugh Award that began with a nomination by her peers for her success mentoring young PGA professionals.

Good luck! Demand in this corner of Colorado is higher than Mt. Sopris, and you’re likely to spot more celebrities than tee times. But we’ll let you in on a little secret: River Valley Ranch is not a private club. You can play it. And you should. Last August, a group of investors, led by Dale Rands, bought the course for $1.2 million. Over the past several months, they’ve invested nearly $2 million in renovations and upgrades, with the result that the course is now immaculate and open for play. “We’re creating a gathering place for everyone in the valley to enjoy,” says Rands. “Our team knows what makes for a good experience.” In addition to Rands, the team consists of Dave Alvarez and Alden Richards, who direct the golf operation, along with Chris Norvell and Josh Staskauskus who oversee Hattie Thompson, the ranch’s restaurant. Norvell, owner of Epicurious Catering, and Staskauskus, formerly of Aspen’s Montagna restaurant, have been guiding a total renovation of the kitchen and dining space, including converting the former patio into an eating area that perfectly frames the spectacular scenery just outside. Mt. Sopris stands with its twin peaks keeping watch over every shot played at RVR. The Crystal River runs pristinely through the course and comes into play on seven holes. Opened in 1996, the par-72 layout designed by Jay Moorish is at once JulyAuGust2013 • ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine 39 PlayWorthy playable and challenging. You don’t have to be a bomber to enjoy the shot-making possibilities; generous fairways invite riskreward decisions. The par-3 third hole is quintessential River Valley Ranch. From the tips it plays 224 yards and bunkers guard the left. Hit long right and you’re lost, hit long left and you’re in the drink. A precise shot or a bailout short right are your options. Choose wisely. RVR reopened for play on April 5th, and the team here knows what you want whether you come from out of town or just down the street. GPS on every cart makes finding yardages simple and play enjoyable. Richards was the longtime director of junior golf in Aspen and he brings that experience to the table. Alvarez, an accomplished teacher and player, was formerly director at the Jim McLean Golf School at PGA West in La Quinta, Calif. “This is sent from above,” Richards says. “Right on the Crystal River, 29 miles from Aspen. It’s a dream come true.” You don’t want to get caught dreaming on the 623-yard par 5 at No. 17. Forget reaching this one in two and focus on your approach shot. But go ahead and start thinking about after-round appetizers as you finish up on an inviting final hole that doglegs left. The Hattie Thompson restaurant will offer continental and American fare created by chef Phil House, who was executive chef at Merry Go ‘Round in Aspen Highlands for years before coming over to RVR. With a daily happy hour and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the course, you can’t go wrong stopping by for drinks after golf or staying for dinner and making an evening out of it. “It’s all about the team,” says Rands. “Together we have the golf side and the hospitality side covered. We’ve worked hard to upgrade every aspect of the course since we took over.” 40 ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine • JulyAuGust2013 Hattie Thompson restaurant And they have succeeded. So if you’re scrambling to find a place to play between wetting your fly line and getting back on your bike, the first place to look is River Valley Ranch.

It’s a new dawn – and the view has been worth the wait. The 634-acre private enclave located south of Littleton is enjoying new life, after the economic downturn temporarily slowed home construction in the Denver metropolitan area. Real estate inquiries are now skyrocketing, the Jay Morrish-designed golf course is in prime condition, and members enjoy lively gatherings, feeling lucky they got in early. River Canyon Real Estate created the original vision for Ravenna after the turn of the millennium, and made it reality in “Our mission is to be mindful of what nature has given us and to uncover, respectfully, the golf course that lies within,” Morris wrote in his initial notes upon seeing the property. Elevation changes are first found on the second hole - a monster par 5 that requires three solid shots to reach the green. It starts the ride between challenging par 3s and risk/reward par 4s, all of which put a premium on club selection. The back nine shoots up, then down, over deep ravines and seemingly calm ponds, with holes named Double Cross, and the Rock. The finishing par-5 18th is the longest on the course. The 2007 with the opening of the course and 243 custom home lots. Situated on a unique piece of property embraced within Waterton Canyon and adjacent to Pike National Forest, the gated community provides owners their own piece of pioneered land. It’s one of the last developments with uninterrupted views of the Denver skyline, the Dakota Hogback, forests and wildlife. “We knew we had something special when we first discovered it,” says owner Glenn Jacks, whose eyes still alight at Ravenna’s future. “In a nearly built-out and still growing town, to find virgin land is an anomaly. Our passion for embracing and protecting the natural environment helped us shape its mission.” It all began with a name that recalls Old-World Italy, with its concrete tile roofs, colorful mosaics, stucco and native wood. The palate ranges from sedate earth tones to vibrant burnt sienna, grass green to ocean blue. Outdoor patios and terraces take advantage of the afternoon sun by day, and provide the warmth of built-in fire pits by night. This might not feel like Denver at all, if the skyscrapers of the city weren’t easily seen from the back nine of what might be Morrish’s last creation. If it is his swan song, then he didn’t skimp on drama, as fairways rock and roll through craggy outcroppings, native pines and carefully placed water features.

Long name, muscle to match. Bentley isn’t known as a sports-car maker, so it comes as no surprise that the Speed Convertible isn’t a nimble king of cornering. But you’ll be surprised when you experience the new suspension Bentley engineered to make the GTC Speed at least handle like a member of the industry royal family. With the suspension lowered nearly half an inch and the frame stiffened, plenty of feel transfers to a relatively light steering column. As for the soft top , it’s as good as any— ever. Quiet, dry and easy to retract, it delivers. With the top up, you’ll have virtually the same experience as a hardtop. With the top down, you’ll have no problem at speeds in excess of 150 mph. The design of the GTC Speed makes driving with the top down as comfortable as it can be, meaning low wind noise and all the comfort without the confinement of a roof. It would be easy to overlook the GTC Speed in the category of muscle. Sure, 50 ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine • JulyAuGust2013 Bentley’s always been big, but the GTC Speed takes it to a new level. This is one of the fastest production cars ever made. The 12-cylinder, W-12 is both massive and efficient. The twin-turbo takes a giant leap up from the base model V-8. The luxury wrapper is deceptive, but inside are 616 horses ready to gallop. That kind of power is rare. In less than 10 seconds you’ll find yourself eclipsing 100 mph with enough room in the pedal for another hundred and then some. The 0-60 time? A blink over 4 seconds. Those are high-performance numbers on a 5,000-pound body. Gas mileage isn’t bad either. At cruising speed, you’ll get around 20 miles per gallon. Of course in the mountains or pushing it hard, you’ll see less as the turbos kick in and start to growl. But oh, the sound of the growl! Choosing the just the right driving mode for your mood may be the most difficult decision with the GTC Speed. In sport mode, you’ll find the bass note in the soundtrack instills a sense of aggression. As the speed increases, the rumble turns to a war cry. The warrior in the GTC Speed has a counterpart that is the interior. That foil is luxuryAutos center. Thoughtful add-ons like a neck heater make it possible to drive with the top down year-round. And while you won’t find this on the spec sheet, the Bentley Continental GTC Speed turns heads. The pronounced and familiar B embedded prominently on the grill has deep meaning; the GTC sports nearly a century of history as a model. Bentley represents the most extreme in luxury and performance. Driving one says, “You get it.” At a base price of $240,000, the GTC Speed isn’t an impulse buy for most. But hey, it’s much less expensive than an F-16. _____________________________ Aaron Atwood is a staff writer for Colorado Golf Magazine super luxury. Ditto the velvet-soft leather.

Not to worry. By finding the swimsuit that works with your body type and gives you confidence to drop the wrap and soak up the sun, you can save the post-traumatic stress for next year The 2013 summer swimwear trends run the gamut from itsybitsy bikinis to vintage suits. But before we talk colors, you should know that it’s the style that’s going to garner you admirable glances. In the 1950s, Marilyn Monroe had every woman clamoring to purchase the same style of swimsuit she wore in that famous picture seen around the world. That style is now called vintage, and vintage swimwear is back. The key elements of these suits are shaping and support, perfect for the curvaceous gal who’ll look feminine and sexy at the same time. Today’s vintage styles offer exactly the right amount of support without looking like a girdle, and they’re fun to wear. Also trending are mismatched bikini tops and bottoms. Matchymatchy is out in both color and style. Try a bandeau on the top with a high-waisted bottom that will flaunt any curvy shape while highlighting legs and giving them the illusion of length—always a plus. Monokinis? These are fabulous bathing suits that take the onepiece to daring levels with sexy cutouts. This is one of the hottest trends on the beach and offered by designer labels including Ralph Lauren, Coco Rave and Bleu by Rod Beattie. With cutouts on the sides, the monokini looks like a string bikini from the back while modestly covering up the tummy in front. The great thing is that these suits give women a choice in coverage. Designers offer pieces with moderate to full bottom coverage, and cutouts are strategically placed to allow you to cover the areas you want covered while allowing you to flaunt those you can’t wait to show off. If being the ultimate girly-girl on the beach is for you, then it’s all about bows, ruffles and fringe. Strategic placement comes into play in these suits, too. Design elements can hide a lot; however, before buying, take a good look in the mirror to make sure the adornments don’t enhance the problem areas you’re trying to minimize. Let’s not forget crochet suits, a trend that emerged in Brazil during Sao Paulo’s fashion week. This suit works beautifully on its own and as part of the mismatch look—a crochet top with a non-crochet bottom, for example. Crochet monokinis are also all the rage this summer, available in a variety of solid colors. When it comes to the hottest patterns and colors, it would be easier to say what isn’t in. Whether it’s a one- or two-piece swimsuit, stripes are hot. For a more slimming appearance, go with vertical. If you want to look larger (as in the bust area), opt for wide horizontal stripes. Black and white is always safe, but bright and colorful tend to get the beach party started. Wild animal beading continues to be popular, along with shades of copper—an ideal color for less-than-tan bodies. And every designer this season is going floral, from the sweet and flirty look to eyecatching tropical prints that add exotic flare. Digital prints are also all the rage. This year’s most popular variations include soft floras, cityscapes and abstract patterns—plenty of options to show off your individuality. Summer is meant to be fun so forget the annual swimsuit stress. Choose the suit that enhances your best assets, minimizes what you don’t want noticed and allows you to express the woman you are. Choose correctly and, regardless of your particular body type, you’ll be the hottest girl on the beach or by the pool! _______________________________________________ Françoise Rhodes is a staff writer with Colorado Golf Magazine JulyAuGust2013 • ColorAdoGolfMAGAzine 53 By Françoise Rhodes Breitling’s Chronomat 44 watch fineJewelry AugustHeart pendant by Roberto Coin Pura Vida Bracelets MTV x Caliber Bracelet W e hear the stories, buy the jewelry and don’t pay much attention to the message behind the bauble, so on a whim I Googled ‘jewelry for a cause.’ Within .17 seconds 96,000,000 results popped up offering links to a variety of websites that sell jewelry to raise funds for nonprofits.
