i did want to know if it was in better condition now then when the OP reviewed it but i think i have eliminated it from my choices . I think im firm on Rio Secca and probably Badlands. How are most of these courses with singles?
 
i was just at Badlands last week and it was in great shape. If I had played iwould have had no problem geeting on.

I dont want to know, all the beating I took got me last time out was a quicker trip back to MGM from wherever I was (I think it was Mandalay Bay)
 
Put about $8-10k in play and probably get comped for Shadow Creek. As for courses on your list to play, personally I would do Revere over Rio, I think Rio is over priced for tourists for what it is. Bali is just an OK course, however, if you've never played it before I would now as it is going to be demolished in the next year or so and replaced with warehouses. Badlands is good, always in good condition, gets a lot of play though, sometimes can be some long rounds. Arroyo and Tuscany are te worst on your list, Arroyo has a terrible layout, last time at Tuscany 4-6 of the greens had some kind of disease going on and were missing grass throughout the whole green. Siena is a fun course, quite a bit of sand.

If you are somewhat straight, then it's no different then any other course. If not, well, bring plenty of balls. :) There are plenty of holes that are wide though, so having driver or 3w will help. If you are a 20, then white tees will be the best.
 
badlands must have forgotten to pay their bill for the web host their website is offline now.

I saw the same thing this morning too lol
 
that is kind of embarassing it's been this way since yesterday
 
After reading this thread I would have to say I am pretty lucky to have played Rio Secco as my only round in Vegas. I wish I could have played more on my numerous trips to Vegas but something else always get in the way.
 
cancelled my scheduled round at badlands this morning due to pouring rain but will instead play Tuesday morning
 
KellyBo and I are heading to Vegas Thursday for Christmas and will be playing one or two of the courses out there. Looking forward to it!

You two have fun! Where are you staying? Shot me a PM.
 
Played Badlands today,course was in terrific condition and the greens were pretty quick,I'm about a 19 cap and thought it would be too much course for me but I got around fine and lost about 2 balls,pretty much played bogey golf but did get my first eagle on the ninth hole of outlaw,holed out from 80 yards on my 3rd shot so all in all I was really impressed,played with three older guys and we had a blast,one of the guys I played with hit driver on EVERY hole even a 117 yard par 3 and he made par,this guy was very accurate with his driver
