NEW CASTLE— — Warrior Custom Golf of Irvine, Calif., has purchased the Lakota Canyon Golf Club, the 18-hole golf course and upscale housing development in New Castle.
Walter Bolen, director of investments for Warrior Custom Golf, was at the Lakota clubhouse Friday buying a new pair of golf shoes. The purchase of the golf club — and the shoes — is the company’s first foray into the Colorado golf market, Bolen said.
Warrior Golf was originally formed to build custom golf clubs, and now owns Lakota and a dozen other golf courses in California, Texas, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida.
“Lakota fits our goal for geographic diversity, it represents a tremendous value, and it’s a beautiful golf course. We’ve got a great opportunity over the next several years with the real estate development,” Bolen said.
He said Brendan Flaherty, founder and CEO of Warrior, initially tried to develop a golf course project from scratch in Riverside County, Calif.
