Golf

My Next-to-Last Victory (2010)

Matcon 41 marked our 28th year of playing at Pole Creek. When playing golf at an elevation of 8,600 feet, plan on hitting the ball up to 15% farther than at sea level! Hitting it big is not everything at Pole Creek. Enjoy the views surrounded by majestic 13,000 foot snow capped peaks of the Continental Divide. Don't be surprised to see some of our local natives roaming our course: elk, deer, fox or red-tailed hawks. Delight in the spectacular display of wildflowers around the clubhouse and across the courses, or just sit back and breathe in the clean refreshing mountain air.

Below are the results from all the Matcon golf tournaments since the beginning of time. From Wycliff and Rock-Rock to latest Pole Creek misadventures. It's all here. The good, the bad, and the ugly.
