NEVADA
Mesquite Gaming Course, with rolling hills and lakes, unveils the
toughest challenge of the three designs.

Southern California .com Silverstone Golf Club (www.silverstonegolf.
75 com), in northwest Las Vegas, brings the desert,
mountains and valley together with 27 holes of
golf excellence. In fact, the nines—Desert, Moun-
tain and Valley—offer as much variety as the
course names. Rolling fairways, large greens and
perfectly placed bunker and water features, Silver-
stone will test players from any set of tees. “With
three different nines, golfers can play six different
course combinations,” says Reese McCall, head
golf professional.
Let’s get one thing straight: Badlands Golf
Club (www.badlandsgc.com) is one of the most
unique golf courses you’ll find. The Johnny Miller-
Chi Chi Rodriguez collaboration is target golf at
its finest. “The grip-it-and-rip-it philosophy won’t
work here,” says Ross McCullough, head golf
professional. “You really have to use the six inches
between your ears.” With three nine-hole layouts
(Desperado, Diablo and Outlaw), players will find
a wide variety of playing options on a layout filled
with challenges.
What can be better than a golf resort with a
Tom Fazio designed golf course? That answer is
easy: Primm Valley Golf Club (www.primmval-
leygolf.com), the home of two Fazio designs. Just
40 minutes south of Las Vegas, Primm Valley
Golf Club sports the Lakes and Desert courses,
two vastly different layouts. “The courses have two
different personalities,” says Rick Koffler, head golf
professional. “Both courses are fair and there is a lot
of variety. Certainly having 36 holes in the same set-
ting is a big selling point. And with the Tom Fazio
name, you’ve got a great reputation.”
Since it’s opening in 2003, Tuscany Golf Club
(www.tuscanygolfclub.com) has quickly become a
Las Vegas favorite. Located a quick 20 minutes
from the STRIP, this distinctive daily access golf
venue offers enthusiasts a refreshing blend of the
finest greens and subtle yet challenging holes – all
bottled into an enjoyable par 72. Come experience
a beautifully balanced course that maximizes the
natural beauty of the Southern Nevada Mountains
with spectacular views of the Las Vegas skyline.
Located in Henderson, Nevada, the Tuscany Golf
Club is a Ted Robinson designed course stretch-
ing to 6,906 yards recognized annually for course
condition, overall playability and value.
