The Eisenhower scholarship program was created in 1961 and was merged with the Chicago-based Evans Scholarship program in 1963.  Over the past 40-plus years over 350 E.E. Scholars have attended C.U. and lived in the Chapter House at Boulder.  The Evans Scholarship was created in 1930 and was started by Charles “Chick” Evans who learned the game as a caddie.  Evans gained worldwide fame in 1916 when he became the first golfer ever to win both the U.S. Amateur and U.S. Open championships in the same year.

The Eisenhower-Evans Scholarship is supported and funded by the efforts of the Colorado Golf Association and the Western Golf Association which is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois.  Since its inception in 1930, 8,399 Evans Scholars have graduated from the program through one of the 18 schools that are part of the scholarship program.  Of these 18 schools, 14, including The University of Colorado, have Evans Scholar Chapter houses.

Below is the list of 19 caddie programs in Colorado. Each program has different training dates each year, please contact the club for more information.  If you are looking for more information on the scholarship contact Erin Bessey at the Colorado Golf Association (303) 366-4653.

Line It Up and Trust It

For many it is extremely important to line up the putter head first, and then position their feet. You can get away with your feet misaligned but not the putter. It is important to believe that you have set the putter on the correct line. This allows a player to make a more confident stroke through the ball. The most common mistake when a player is negative or doubtful is that these fears create muscle tension and inhibits our ability to make a smooth fluid stroke resulting in deceleration. Set your putter, position your feet, clear your mind and TRUST IT.
