That seems to be the consensus best site. Looking at this Friday's rates as a starting point, it seems that you can get sub-$100 rates at some courses that are fairly well regarded by the posters in this thread. Although it's funny that Bali Hai goes to the trouble of posting a rate that is a 2% discount to $195. Use this thread (Cla.rk's post above if anything) and other sites to determine value.

Re: Golf in Las Vegas Superthread
Guys,
www.ezlinks.com has better deals than Golfnow is what my friend said. I've havent checked out ezlinks since they dont have any courses in my area. But for Vegas, the prices I listed in my post above came from ezlilnks.

Re: Golf in Las Vegas Superthread
Hey guys,
going to vegas next week, looking at a couple different courses, and I'd appreciate some recommendations.
Golfing with the girlfriend, and we are both beginners.
Course we are considering:
Tuscany - Probably leading right now, a lot of good comments in this thread, also has gps which gf hasn't seen yet.
Rhodes Ranch
Siena - Also had some good comments in this thread I think
wildhorse
painted desert
silverstone
Legacy
also, if anyone has other suggestions, I'd love to hear them.

Painted Desert is short and pretty forgiving IMO, might be good for you as "beginners". Rhodes is also pretty easy, not a lot of forced carries (but longer).
If you want something different, try Callaway at night. It's a short 9 hole par 3 just off the strip that's lit. The weather will be nice and it's easy and enjoyable to walk. When I play I leave half my clubs in the car and just carry wedges up to 7 iron. The longest hole is around 160.
I used to take my gf (beginner) as a cheap laidback "datenight". Plus she always liked it because it was much easier than a full length course. Take some golf balls though, there is a fair amount of water.
Have fun.

Re: Golf in Las Vegas Superthread
I'm contemplating going in November to Advantage Golf school which is at the Revere Golf Club.
Anyone have info on golfing this time of year?

Re: Golf in Las Vegas Superthread
Is it generally warm enough to golf around Vegas over the Christmas/New Years period?

Re: Golf in Las Vegas Superthread
Plotting a bachelor party sometime in the last 2 weeks of March... recommendations for a good course to get the desert golf experience, while playing with beginners, without getting raped for greens fees & rental clubs during that time? It'll probably be a small group, 4-6 players max.
I may also sneak out a few days early to play myself, if any locals are interested in a meet up?

If you have car rental I like Tuscany. Nice course for all levels. Otherwise check with your hotel they may be able to setup a Limo and everything.
Tip to you dont tell the course it is a bachelor party.

Damn, Angel Park is my home course.
I like it, for a new player it's just fine.
