Opened in 1965 and designed by Labron Harris, the course plays 2,963 to 3,103 yards depending on tee selection, with four sets of tees, a slope rating of 114, and a USGA rating of 68.2, making it one of the more fully developed 9-hole facilities on Colorado's Eastern Plains.

About the Course

Spreading Antlers Golf Course has built a reputation as the golf hub of Prowers County, offering a genuinely challenging layout with water hazards on six of its nine holes. The course welcomes guests year-round with an open guest policy and tee times available to the public, and its four sets of tees make it accessible to golfers of every skill level, from beginners to low-handicap competitors.

Practice Facilities

Golfers can prepare for their round with a full practice setup, including a driving range, practice putting green, and dedicated chipping and bunker practice areas, giving visitors a genuine chance to warm up every part of their game before teeing off.

Dining and Amenities

Spreading Antlers Golf Course offers rental clubs and carts, along with cart shed rentals for members who want a permanent storage spot for their own equipment. The club runs an active membership program, including individual, spousal, college, and junior memberships, alongside daily green fees for visiting golfers. The course maintains a packed tournament calendar nearly every week of the season, including club championships, scramble events, a chamber-sponsored glow golf night, high school team events, and a charity tournament benefiting local hospice care.

Lessons & Instruction

Spreading Antlers Golf Course offers regular coaching and private lessons through its golf professionals, with individual lessons available by appointment.
