I am planning a week golf trip to St. George, Utah.   For those of you who live around there or been there for golf trips, can you help me what are my options?   What's the best time to go?   What should I budget for?   Things to do at evening after the golf?

Golf is fantastic in Southern Utah, St. George area. There are also many great courses just 20 minutes south in Mesquite, Nevada.         I used to travel there when I lived in Colorado and played during the winter months, for weekends and visit a golf buddy. Weather is   usually very favorable, with some windy days during the winter. Best months are usually fall and spring.

Golf rates vary during seasons, but most courses were reasonable. There's more entertainment at Casino's, live shows, restaurants in Mesquite. St. George offers good dining, scenic National Parks, but it's more of a retirement community.  

There plenty of golf packages online with good deals.

I played St. George, UT / mesquite, NV last winter.    Best course I played in St. Georges is called Sand Hollow (actually in Hurrican, UT ... really good bbq restaurant about a mile from Sand Hollow on main street of town) - awesome scenery (bring your camera).    red rocks are amazing.   Not a cheap course - tee time around $100, but worth it.   There are a handful of courses in St. George - most are $50-75 typical courses, but Sand Hollow has the wow factor.

Plan on driving an hour south & playing a couple Mesquite, NV courses (Wolf Creek is the most famous, and by far the most scenic I've played).    That's about $140, but worth every penny.  Ridiculously good Mexican restaurant right off the exit in Mesquite hidden away in a small strip mall - highly recommended (and I don't even like Mexican food typically)

    • Day 316 - More swings, full backswing and full finish.
    • Day 132: did some mirror work while watching TV. Worked on backswing stuff primarily. 
    • 26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity. 
    • Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
