Played on Friday, 2/19, for $57 with a 8:20 tee time. Course had about a 30 minute frost delay. While on the 2nd green, we could see there already a couple groups close to a hole behind as the lead group finished 6 and at one point, we had 4 groups stacked on one hole. Marshal came by while we were on 10 and said they didn't see any issues and the round finally ended close to 5 hours.

Course conditions have been consistently good all winter. Dormant, painted tee boxes. Lush fairways. They did cut down some length and the rough isn't as gnarly as it's been. Bunkers have been the low point here for years. Visible liners on some. Rocky, almost desert like sand.G Greens were smooth and medium/fast, but needed to stay below the hole or the right tier or your ball had a chance of running off.

Carts have GPS and built in bluetooth speakers. Drink cart was around 3 times or so with a decent beer selection and specials. All grass driving range but very small putting green at the clubhouse.

Changes: the putting green at the 1st tee (like a 5 minute cart ride from the clubhouse) is gone, sold off to the house next to it. The desert area short of the 2nd green, about 30 yards deep, has been filled in with grass.

Carts are mandatory 2 riders with the option of the plastic shower curtain. Still noods in the holes.

Slightly delayed review: Played Super Bowl Sunday, 2/7, 8ish tee time, with a couple of groups from the Vegas Golf Network. Fee was $50 prepaid.

Course is in a completely dormant stage, so firm, kinda hard fairways and the rough is non-existent. With no rough, anything near the edges roll into the big rocks or desert brush. Tee boxes level with the par 3s showing lots of signs of use. Bunkers were iffy, either hard packed or almost fluffy soft, which made for some interesting shots. Almost all the greenside bunkers are deep, so outs were difficult. Greens were pretty good, receptive, and somewhat smooth. Big issue was the amount of rocks and pebbles from the bunkers scatter all over the greens. They did not look like they had any clean up for a few days.

Aliante does have a large all grass driving range, large multi-tier putting green, and a chipping/bunker area. Food and beverage prices are pretty good.

As much as I like playing here, I'm going to wait a few months to see how it bounces back as the weather warms. It's a fun course and very "muni" like, usually a nice relaxing round.

Played with my Friday irregular group on 2/5 with a 9am tee time. $52 with the OB Card. Course did not seem busy, not like a normal Friday, and definitely not like a Super Bowl weekend in Vegas. Easy check in and grabbed a cart.

They currently don't allow carts to the range so you need to trek about 100 yards with your clubs. All mat range. Small chipping area. Pretty big practice green with lots of breaks and elevation, running pretty fast.

Course is great shape. The par 3 tee boxes have some divot areas but they move around the markers to help. Fairways are pretty lush, no thin or dirt areas. I did see lots of unfilled divots even though they have the bottles back on the cart. Bunkers appeared to be a bit heavy and/or thin. Rough was just an inch or so above fairway, I've seen it thicker here. Greens are in fantastic shape. Pretty smooth but did seem some balls jumping along, and running their typical medium/fast speed. It would be interesting if they got them close to what the practice green was running today.

No issues with everyone having their own carts today. Carts have GPS to the yards to front/middle/back. Drink cart was around 3-4 times and the snack bar on 6/15 was open. For a Friday, we got around in about 3:45, great time.

Mountain is a really good course. I think it plays a bit harder than it looks and the greens are definitely tricky.

Highlight of the weekend was the GK Plays on 1/23. I always have a great time with the GK crew and being in my hometown was awesome. Teed it up with John_T, Pisarski01, and Circaflex for a fantastic round.

Every time I've played a course at Paiute (3 full courses), it's in great shape, and Wolf did not disappoint. Fairways were lush and green, with complete coverage, no bare areas to be found. Rough was up a little, just enough to penalize for being off the fairway. Bunkers were filled with thick, beach like sand, not your typical desert bunker. Greens are incredible. Smooth and fast, which they have been every time I've played here in the last year or so.

Wolf is the more difficult of the three, but it doesn't really beat you up. Its a great Pete Dye design, but doesn't have any of the railroad ties bunkers like Sun and Snow. It does have the 15th hole, a Pete Dye Island green, and like typical Vegas, it's a bigger green but farther shot to hit it, and throw in the typical wind, it turns into an adventure.

Paiute is highly recommended for a Vegas trip. A nice mix of courses (Snow is my favorite) for all levels. 2 large practice areas, both with: all grass driving range, large putting area with multiple tiers, and a bunker/chipping area.

Capped off a Vegas golf orgy weekend with a round at Revere-Concord on 1/24 with Pisarski01, rudyclub, and Circaflex. The morning started with the expected frost delay, which pushed us from a 8am to a 9am partial shotgun, with us as the 1A group. Staff was incredible with handling the crowd, which included a Vegas MGA group outing and everyone trying to hustle their way up the sheet.

Course is the same as when I played about 6 weeks ago. Tee boxes are a bit beat up, as growing grass in the winter is difficult. Fairways have full coverage, with no bare areas. It's not "spring lush" but it's nice. Bunkers are decent. Greens are a lot better than they look. They have an olive green, kinda brown look, but were running medium early and sped up as the sun heated up. There was a few unfixed ball marks and the most "putter slam" marks (easily 4 or 5) I've ever seen.

To me, Revere is a "locals" course, the public course in the Anthem neighborhood in the hills of south Henderson. I would play here more if I lived closer, and Concord is my favorite compared to Lexington. It has the best practice facilities in the area, with a fairly large grass range, large putting green, and a separate chipping/bunker area. The 11th tee box may have one of the greatest views of the entire Vegas Valley. Service is always good, and the food/beverage is excellent (when it is available).

Covid: No real restrictions. Masks are mandatory in and around the pro shop area. 2 to a cart but a divider is available if you ask. Rakes in the bunkers. No noods or PVC, ball hits the bottle of the cup (such a sweet sound). I didn't see anything about touch the flag stick, but we left it in.
