Unique Experience of Golf

There's nothing like the sound of cash money, and there's nowhere else it echoes with more enthusiasm than in Las Vegas, Globe's entertainment capital. Even if the reverberations of cash drawers and clanking coins aren't quite so deafening as a decade ago, Las Vegas remains a premier playground in the world, and that applies to golfers as well as slot jockeys.

In fact, Vegas has beaten the odds and joined the inner circle of outstanding desert golf destinations. It can't quite match Arizona or Palm Springs for sheer quantity, but where quality is concerned, Vegas golf can hold its head high.The value for your money in Vegas is extraordinary, because when you're on the golf course, you're only losing two, three hundred bucks in a six-hour period, which isn't bad.

With more than 120 golf course to choose from, the big question is: how do you find the best golf courses in Las Vegas? Sin City has long been one of the most popular golf destinations in the United States, and it boasts a great many amazing golf courses. So, if you're planning a golf vacation to Las Vegas, you'll need to make some important choices; you have to get it right.

A few of the Las Vegas Golf Courses are :
1) Bali Hai :
This 7,002-yard Brian Curley and Lee Schmidt design is a tropical golf paradise located right on the Strip. The layout includes a signature island green and more than 100,000 tropical plants and flowers. Transition zones are accented with Augusta white sand that is set off by black volcanic rock outcroppings. Lessons are available from Golf Magazine Top 100 Teacher Mike Davis, while dining options include the award-winning Cili Restaurant.


 
2) Royal Links :
Perhaps Las Vegas' most distinctive course is Royal Links, where architect Pete Dye fashioned 18 holes that pay homage to holes found on British Open courses, such as Troon's "Postage Stamp" and St. Andrews' Road Hole, with plaques on each tee box to educate as well as entertain.

The faux-castle clubhouse serves up that ubiquitous Scottish treat -- the hot dog -- that is not to be missed. It's big, it's grilled and it comes on a seasoned, buttered bun. Says Mr. Feherty, "You go out there and if you close your eyes and forget that you really came here for the slot machines -- you can really believe that on a cool day, maybe that you're floating around Scotland. I mean hell, they've got pirates, they've got the Eiffel Tower, they've got the pyramids ... Why the hell shouldn't you be in Scotland, and if you're in Scotland, you should be on a golf course."

3) Desert Pines Golf Club :
Desert Pines Golf Club is described by many as "The Pinehurst" of Las Vegas. This Dye designed course features thousands of mature pine trees lining the fairways. White sand bunkers protect large, undulating greens with water coming into play on 9 out of 18 holes. Desert Pines is extremely convenient, located less than 10 minutes from downtown and less than 15 minutes from the Las Vegas Strip. This course provides players of all abilities a fun and rewarding experience ... one in which you'll use every club in your bag. Golf Digest has recognized Desert Pines as one of the best new upscale courses in the country.
