For Las Vegas native golfers.

Which course would you recommend out of these 6? Any experience with any of them would be greatly appericated. I will be staying on the strip and was wondering distance and quality wise which would be the best course to play while out in Vegas. Thanks

Desert Pines
Las Vegas National Golf Club
Revere Concord
Revere Lexington
Silverstone
Tuscany Golf club

yea, these 6 courses are the cheapest around 100-150 which I don't mind paying for playing in vegas.

I could probably win this in one hand a blackjack. Me and my brother have a day to ourselves before everyone get's out there, so we figured we would golf. we are now flying in on wednesday instead of thursday and most guys arent' coming to late thursday and friday night.

I'm a local and have played them all... my take:

Desert Pines: cool driving range (double decker) but it's 18 holes packed in a space suitable for 12... and it's next t the freeway

Las Vegas National: a great deal during the summer and some nice old Vegas charm... big, old trees... but hit and miss on the quality of the actual course

Revere Lexington:  very cool, newer course... great views and very intriguing holes... but very tough and long and some blind shots... will be even tougher with wind howling and it will be

Revere Concord: newer Revere course but not nearly as good... more bland...very up and down... 18th hole is very cool par 5

Silverstone: only played once and don't remember much other than it being short and rather, well, unmemorable lol

Tuscany:  very far from the Strip and is near Lake Las Vegas... 45 minutes driving time... cool track, a bit short, but it will be windy

If you are a 10 handicap or below and want some killer views of the city I would recommend Revere Lexington but it's pricey

If you want to stay near the strip and play a course with old school charm (hosted PGA tour event - Las Vegas Invitational at one time) and less wind then play National but it's not what it once was

hope this helps

Desert pines  Too tight

National  Too many duffers(very slow play) Have not played the rest.

Lineguesser you the man thanks dude. How far out is the Lexington course from the strip? Thanks man really appericate the advice.

Or better yet is there any other courses out there you would recommend that are close to the strip and nice courses that cost say 250 or below?

Revere - glad I could help...

you can be out to Revere in about 20-25 minutes... not bad at all... it's on the south part of town

the best course in town (IMO) is Las Vegas Country Club but it's private (sorry)

if you really want to pay, then play Wynn gold course (proabably around $400?) as it's nice and won't be around long (they will be utilizing the space for new real estate developments soon)... I haven't played it but it's on the site of the old Desert Inn gold course which was THE best course in town before it got "replaced" by the Wynn

Bear's Best I think is around $200-$250 if you want to spend in that range on the west part of town and it is awesome but is tough... check the website on this track

I don't think you'll be disappointed with either Revere Lexington or Bear's Best if you decide to play those... or Wynn is you decide to spend the extra money... is looking to save $ then play National

It better be good for $300-$500 per round.  I have only played it twice and both were charity scrambles so I didn't really get to enjoy playing my own round their yet.

wolf creek anyone?
