Be sure to check out our "What's in the Bag" feature on our site that shows the weekly winner & what clubs they used to help them win.
Featured Course for the Month - Badlands, NV!!
Golf Course Design In the heart of Summerlin lies one of Las Vegas’ finest golfing venues, Badlands Golf Club. Set against the majestic Red Rock Canyons, Badlands features three unique 9-hole layouts; Desperado, Diablo, and Outlaw. All three courses were designed by award winning golfers Johnny Miller and Chi Chi Rodriguez.
The three courses that make up Badlands test golfers of all levels, especially those who tend to miss the green. Should you miss the green, you will be playing from the challenging lye’s the desert has to offer requiring you to manufacture shots. Beginner to Intermediate golfers can score quite well due to the variety of tee boxes and club selection options off the tees.
What’s great about this course is that it lends itself to all different types of golfers. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or advanced golfer you have several options off the tee. If you want to be risky you can get to a par 5 in 2, but you better hit it straight. If you want to be conservative, hit an iron off of the tee and you can still reach the green in 3 shots and set yourself up for a birdie. Click here to view courses website!!

Was a professional boxer for four years, but appendicitis ended that career. Had 16-1 record. As a youngster, fished balls out of pond at Mexicali CC and sold them back to golfers.A future dream is to build a church for impoverished children in the La Posalera section of Mexicali.
