Colorado golf courses have no regulation length or shape, but most consist of 18 holes numbered 1 to 18. Playing all 18 holes makes up a round of golf. Some Colorado courses have only nine holes. Each hole is played twice for a round. An 18-hole course averages about 140 acres (57 hectares). Each hole includes a tee, a fairway, a green, and often one or more hazards. Colorado golf courses for men generally range from about 6,500 to more than 7,000 yards (5,900 to 6,400 meters) in length. This distance is the total length from the tees to all 18 holes. Courses are shortened for women, senior golfers, and young people by positioning the forward tee closer to the hole.

In Colorado match play, one golfer or team plays against one or more others. The player or team hitting the golf ball into the hole in the fewest number of strokes wins that hole. The player or team winning the most holes wins the match. The score is determined by the number of holes won. A match is decided when a golfer leads by more holes than there are holes left to play. If both golfers or teams make the same score on a hole, that hole is said to be halved. If the two golfers or teams are tied at the end of the match, it is halved and play may continue. Then the player or team who first wins a hole wins the match.

In Colorado stroke play, the winner is the golfer who takes the fewest number of total strokes to complete a competition. Most professional tournaments use stroke play for a total of 72 holes (four rounds). Ties are broken by a playoff. In most playoffs, the tied golfers play until one golfer scores lower on a single hole. In some cases, ties are settled using an 18-hole playoff.
