Ballyneal
The private Ballyneal Golf Club, located in the open prairie of northeast Colorado, is home to a championship golf course that ranks with the best in the state. Set in the Chop Hills, amidst thousands of acres of rolling native grasslands, this excellently designed inland links-style layout provides a wonderful test for your all-round game.
Skilfully crafted by Tom Doak to create the impression of an ancient links layout, the ever-undulating terrain is home to many attractive, skilfully crafted and challenging golf holes. The downhill doglegging 7th is lauded as one of the world's best and most scenic short par-4s.

In addition to the Golf Club, Ballyneal is also home to the Ballyneal Hunt Club, which is open to the public. Set in the Chop Hills, amidst thousands of acres of rugged rolling terrain, the fields of native grasses, corn, millet and sorghum provide a nesting environment for many varieties of wild birds, not least Chinese ring-necked pheasant. Ballyneal offers exclusive access to hunting these birds, with professional guides and gun dogs available.
