Golf in Las Vegas Superthread
Any recommendations on where to play in Vegas? I'm in town for the weekend and would like to get a round in. I'm staying at Red Rock and will have a rental car. Ideally would like to keep the round under $200, but will take all recommendations.
Thanks guys...
Couple buddies and I are heading to Vegas from Mar 15-20 and we are looking to get a couple rounds of golf in, would like to go somewhere nice at least once and then maybe once to a medium priced course. Any suggestions or tips for getting good cheap golf down there?
Cheers,

hey,
going to vegas with my dad in a few weeks [like mid march] and will prob want to play some golf out there. can anyone give me some advice on:
- best courses with reasonable green fees?
- can we rent clubs easily and, if so, will they be crappy or halfway decent?
i think we're going to stay in caesars and i read that harrahs have their own course. would that be worth considering?
tried doing a search but theres way more courses than i thot there were so getting any idea of how good a course is has been pretty tricky.
Thanks,
Pete
I've played Wildhorse once - about 15 years ago - and didn't particularly care for it. Lots of narrow fairways iirc and it seemed like they would not hold tee shots as if they were crowned in the middle or something. Or maybe it was just me sucking (lol), idk. otoh I do remember that the staff were very friendly.
The last hole is a b**ch. a par 4 where you have to hit over water to a narrow green that is sloped downward towards the water. if u put any backspin on the ball, good chance you're going in the drink
It is an older course - kind of a mix of desert golf and traditional layout. I know they used to have professional events there in the 1960s & 70s.
