I can easily see myself doing that also,” he adds, surely to the delight of his parents, Pattie Daly Caruso and Richard Caruso. If the name Carson Daly is only vaguely familiar, you aren’t in sync with of-the-moment TV. Daly is the former host of MTV’s Total Request Live and current host of the wildly successful televised singing competition The Voice. As ecstatic and amazed as Daly is with the success of The Voice, it’s his long-running late- night show, Last Call with Carson Daly, that’s his baby. The show, which premiered in 2002 and airs weeknights at 1:30 a.m., turned Daly into one of the longest tenured hosts in late-night television. A California native, Daly grew up in Santa Monica. Grateful that his stepfather, Richard, introduced him to the game of golf as a young boy, Daly was truly bit by the golf bug in high school, where he became a star player on the Santa Monica High School golf team. After graduating in 1991, Daly continued to hone his game in the Coachella Valley, after moving there to attend College of the Desert. In fact, there was a time when he had aspirations of becoming a Tour player. Daly with Mother Pattie Daly Caruso and Richard Caruso “I tried to qualify for the U.S. Open at Ironwood when I was playing well. I had a disastrous hole, and I think that was the turning point for me. I would have tried on the then Nike Tour, probably given it a shot, tried to play a few events, see how it would have goneI would have like to have done something. But we’ll never know.” What we do know is that Daly has worked diligently in the entertainment business and achieved success and popularity. Humble and appreciative of his life, he quips, “I’ve never had more invites to golf tournaments.” These days, he continues to be passionate about the game and Daly at the 2005 Bob plays as much as possible. “January and February are when I’m able Hope Chrysler Classic to play the most,” he says. “The rest of the year is crazy busy.” May June 2013 • Colorado Golf MaGazine 13 on Cover Voice Cast: Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Shakira, Carson Daly and Usher Daly believes adamantly that the game of golf helps build strong character.

In addition to the Championship Course, Coore and Crenshaw have designed a nine-hole Short Course that winds through the Ponderosa pines in the upper part of the Colorado Golf Club property. LINKS Magazine calls it one of the best in the country. The Short Course is a perfect late afternoon family getaway. The practice area at Colorado Golf Club is ranked among the best in America by Golf Digest. With dramatic views of Pikes Peak, Devils Head and Mount Evans, the sweeping, downhill range is a beautiful place to work on one’s game. The practice area features: Two 120-yard tee boxes and a hidden “private” tee Five bunkered target greens maintained to on-course specifications A 7,000-square-foot short game area with bunkers, rough, collars and closely mown chipping areas An 8,000-square-foot putting green Colorado Golf Club's dramatic old-world clubhouse opened on October 1, 2011.
