Looking to get a bit of an impromptu TST meetup down in Vegas next weekend. I'm flying in on Friday morning (8:40 I believe) and was wondering if anyone was up for a round...

I'm thinking of playing Las Vegas National, but am open to other suggestions...

Friday would be the only day I would be able to play as I will be participating in the Nevada Mid-Am the other days.

So...you in??

I live here in Vegas, but unfortunately I work on Friday. Not sure if you would want a hacker like me slowing you down anyway lol

Las Vegas National is a great course though. I also suggest Legacy Golf Club. It's the course used in the local Open Qualifier here. Beautiful links style course that stretches to over 7200yds from the tips.

I don't care what your index is...as long as you can come out and play!!

Which would you recommend over the other...Vegas National or Legacy GC??

I wish I could get off work, but I don't see that happening since I'm off Monday. If that changes, I'll definately shoot you a PM and we can definately set something up.


Tough choice between the two. I've only been to LV National once and it's more of a tourist stop so the condition of the course depends on the amount of out of town traffic that week. The prices are great though.

Legacy however is always in immaculate condition. And I play there every week. Might be a little more expensive than LVN, but I think it's worth it. It's in Henderson/Green Valley, about 15-20 minutes from the strip.

Hmmm...now you've put me to the test!!

Actually, twilight doesn't start until 1 at Legacy whereas it starts at 11 at LVN...that may end up being the deciding factor as the wifey is flying in just before 5. We'll see though...I may talk her into taking a cab

Can't offer any opinions on those since I've never been. But I hear a lot of great things about Desert Pines from my golf buddies.

If you don't mind spending a little more dough, Lake Las Vegas has beautiful golf courses. But they are very pricey lol

      Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want.

      While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).

      Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.

      No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??

      I don't think that is true at all. That is off-topic here, I think.
