In Vegas for a few days of golf and wanted to (A) play a GK sponsor course and (B) play a new course. Being that I more than likely wont make the July outing, I opted for Paiute – Wolf course. In short, what an excellent facility and course. Check in is great with the crew grabbing your clubs from the car and loading them on a cart for you. Entire staff is super friendly. We had breakfast in the restaurant which overlooks the 18th hole of the snow course. From there it was off to the all grass range (range balls included).
Course is basically flat with a few rolling terrain holes so make it interesting. A handful of the holes had water in play including two of the par 3’s, one of which is an island green.

Green’s were in super condition, rolling smooth at a fast pace. Most greens had minor undulations that had standard slope from front to back. Skirt areas around the green were tricky. Usually excellent lies directly in front but off to the side was thick rough.

Fairways were just short of a 10. Very lush and green, offering a perfect launching pad. Rough was 2-4 inches thick. Enough to get your attention and make you work for it. Outside of the primary rough is desert area and lost ball.

Tee boxes were excellent as well, being level and lush. Sand traps were above average. They had about 1-2” of soft sand on top of hardpacked dirt.

Definitely a must play track. I would have probably squeezed onto one of the other Paiute courses but needed to get back into town to try and get a club fixed for tomorrow.
