Pro players tee off to good beginning at Manhattan's newest golf complex
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN — Prairie Dunes, the highly regarded country club in Hutchinson, may have some competition as the state's stingiest golf course.
On a dreary Monday morning, pro golfer Jim Colbert sent a drive down the No. 1 fairway of the state's newest golf complex, the Colbert Hills Golf Course on the northwest edge of Manhattan.
"They called for a 50 percent chance of rain today, but that's not so bad, considering when we started this project, people only gave us a 20 percent chance," said Colbert, a 1964 graduate of Kansas State.
Colbert's drive capped nearly two years of work on the $11 million complex, which features a 315-acre, 18-hole championship golf course, a youth golf academy, and a living laboratory for Kansas State students.
Colbert, a leading money-winner on the PGA Senior Tour in 1995 and 1996, said the course was designed as a mix of competitive golf, education and research by Kansas State University.
"It was no surprise everyone came together because of what a fighter Jim Colbert is. Obviously, this is one of the best golf courses anywhere already."

He has said he had wanted to develop a golf complex where people could learn to play the game, students could learn to manage the golf business and environmental research could be conducted to improve the golf course industry.
Just two days old, some of the game's top players already have walked down its fairways seeded with zoysia, a creeping grass.
A lineup including Lee Trevino, Raymond Floyd, Annika Sorenstam and Colbert teed off Monday at the Founders Pro-Am being held at Colbert Hills.
"What an unbelievable effort to attract the commitment and bring all these people together," said PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem, whose organization has labeled Colbert Hills the first "preferred collegiate golf course" in the country.
The course also was designed to play as one of the toughest.
"It was no surprise everyone came together because of what a fighter Jim Colbert is," Finchem said. "Obviously, this is one of the best golf courses anywhere already." Our course also was designed to play as
From the back tees, the course plays 7,525 yards and has been tagged with a stroke average of 77.5 and a slope rating (degree of difficulty) of 152.
Before teeing off, everyone sat in on numerous dedications involving all the entities in the project. Included were the PGA Tour and its First Tee program for disadvantaged and minority youths, and the Golf Course Superintendents Association, which will assist with the golf course management program under Kansas State.
Public play will begin today. Tee times are already being taken.
