Trip to vegas.

[notrpmp]

Hello all, I am scheduled for a trip to las vegas from april 2nd- 6th i was wondering if anyone had some detailed info about the courses there, like how strict of a private course is pecole ranch, if it is super strict can someone show me around that maybe lives there? I am trying to get all 6 coursses in on 2 days so i can spend some QT with my wife after she shope while im playing. Anyways thanks in advance for any info.

peccole ranch you can play if your discrete. in other words dont go after any disc thrown into someones backyard. the real problem with peccole is that there are no signs to let you know where to go, to play all 18. theres a section that you have to walk quite a ways in between to play the whole course and if you dont know where to go its easy to miss it. talking to a local is your best bet, or hooking up with one to show you the course. i dont believe there are maps anywhere you can get for the course either.

I played Sunset over the New Year... It is very open... I was told I should play a couple others that are 10 or so miles out of town, but I never made it to them... When you go to Sunset, walk across the street and go to Sunset Pizzeria, VERY GOOD!!!

I just played Sunset for the first time in their Ice Bowl this past weekend and its a fun course. Im not used to such distance on holes or so much OB around a lot of the holes either. Its worth noting that the distances here when looking at Sunset are inaccurate, and several of the holes listed are actually considerably longer, the tee signs are accurate but some of the distances on the site are not.

Be aware that many of the holes at Sunset have multiple pin positions. The active pin positions listed on DGCR are the ones that were in play when I played 11/4/2008. I'm not sure how often they change pins, but if you have updated locations you can change the DGCR Hole Info.

I played all the courses in Las Vegas, except Freedom Park - closed for construction, over my New Years holiday. Disc Golfing during the day and gambling at night!
Sunset is the best course. Mountain Crest is good also, but its crammed pretty tight in the park.
I liked Peccole Ranch because it a tight course that requires control. Print out a map from the website and you should have no problem playing there. There are tee signs on every tee. I parked in the parking lot at the tennis courts around the corner, but I've seen people park on the street around the corner from the first tee.
Davis Park is not worth going unless you just want to practice. A map is require to play there.
Anthem is not worth the drive unless you out in Henderson already. All nine are straight shots and short.

The biggest problem that I had was getting to the courses. Get yourself a good map for Las Vegas or do map and directions from Google.

Letting your wife loose in Vegas to go shopping by herself?

WHAT, ARE YOU NUTS?

Just kidding. Really, just kidding!

I'm going to Vegas in May for 10 days with my girlfriend. Going to slip a few discs in my bag, just in case. LOL
