The Nicklaus designed Coyote Springs is a very nice course - about halfway between Vegas & Mesquite.       Piaute courses (3) are all very nice - about a half hour north of Vegas.

If you want to take a day ... I'd highly recommend Sand Hollow just over the border in UT.    Scenery is rediculous - even better than Wolf Creek.     The Red Rocks are very different than Mesquite desert scenery...

I have to play Sand Hollow next time I am in Mesquite.

I played Coyote Springs (located out in no where land) in February this year.  The greens were in terrible shape.  Seems like the course was going down hill as not many people were playing.  The pro shop seemed like a temporary trailer park.

I personally would NOT go back to Coyote Springs.

I would like to recommend Bear's Best. It is maybe 20 minutes west of the strip straight down Flamingo Rd. Premium rate is listed as $189 but cheaper rates are available based upon tee time.

Played it, it is nice but i didn't love it. I thought the TPC course was better. Rio Seeca was much much better then either of the others.

Just had a conversation with a few buddies for next year. We are going to a 5 or 6 day trip to Casa De Compo for golf that trip will average 1.5 rounds per day - then we are going to do an opening weekend of the NCAA hoops tournament - Wed evening arrival, sunday redeye home. that will be the ultimate degeneration trip for poker, sports books, craps and associated binge drinking that we should attempt to do - then back at pinehurst for the 10th year of (used to go to MB) 8 rounds in 4 days trip that is always my favorite of the year...hopefully that will be enough to get me past winter blues without wanting to kill sombody here in the cold and snow!

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By Elmer ·

      I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By TN94z ·

      I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
