Best range promotion: Besides the private lessons, group clinics, junior golf & adventure camp, Vail veterans clinics, & Charity Event clinics, our Friday morning “Quick Hits” were the best range promotion we ran this year. From 8am-10am every Friday morning we have 1-3 pros giving free quick tips to both members and guests on their respective ranges. On the private side, we have all the people playing that morning looking forward to “Quick Hits” plus other members just coming out for the tips.

Special programs: 1st Tee Players League tournaments & practices, Vail Veterans/Wounded Warriors clinics and golf tournament, Evans scholarship caddy program, Glow ball tournament for Vail Mountain Rescue, & 4-6 charity events (Resort Clubhouse).
