The latest on golf gear and other products you simply must have By Mike Conrad

Let’s face it; golfing in the Colorado can be HOT! 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 ColorAdo Golf MAGAzine • July AuGust 2013 Hot Gear 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 beverage- to-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.

They must believe in Ntheir ability to meet the challenges of the task at hand each time they step up to the ball. Confidence, however, changes day- to-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.

For golfers, there are two elements of the research to consider.

Keystone Golf Resort By Lisa Perry Mountain escapes

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, Gand even environmental efforts. Keystone Resort Golf has been honored for all-of-the-above and more—even its stay-and- play 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 sky- high 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.

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.

It is a complex problem.” The result? “We actively monitor the course, we explain our expectations to guests on the first tee, and we have a marshal on the front and on the back with clocks to help golfers with self-monitoring. With the program, we’ve improved a minimum of 45 minutes, so we’re doing something right. Most people are time-conscious and we’re on the cutting edge to resolve the issue.” Ben Krueger designed the course that runs alongside I-70 and is just over 7,000 yards from

sheep on the hillside—and so is the value. It’s a memorable golf course laid out so it’s playable. “Because we’re managed by Vail Recreation, we promote health and wellness, and we do promote walking the course,” says Plain. “It was built in 1962 with small elevation changes—unique compared to new courses—and it’s just a short distance from greens to tees.” Customer service is paramount. “I’m very selective in who I hire to work here,” says Plain. “Our staff does a great job making guests feel comfortable and at home. 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.

ou are on a trip to the Roaring Fork Valley and want to play golf? 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: YRiver 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

playable and challenging. You don’t have to be a bomber to enjoy the shot-making possibilities; generous fairways invite risk- reward 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.
