This is the tale of two brothers and their dream. Each is deeply rooted in the land, joined by a passion for the rolling dunes and the broad skies of eastern Colorado. The elder favors the hunt, the younger the royal and ancient game. Together, brothers Rupert and Jim O'Neal have achieved their dream of creating one of the most distinctive and enviable clubs in the world, Ballyneal.
Here golf is played as it was meant to be, afoot, on a premiere course designed by a master architect, Tom Doak. Ballyneal members partake in hunting too, on one of the world's greatest Upland-bird habitats.
Both golf and hunting are strategic pursuits. Ballyneal presents golfers with many options on every shot, inviting creativity and imagination. The successful hunt, be it game or golf, demands careful attention to the conditions and surroundings.
Success in both depends upon how well the nature of the quest is understood. A wonderful combination of golf and game sport at Ballyneal is the source of great satisfaction to those patient and skilled.
