Played 1/26 with USCDodger and a couple friends. We teed off at 12 and finished about 4:30.

Overall the conditions were fantastic.

It’s hard to find a spot where I complain about anything in particular. The tee boxes were level and lush throughout the round, the fairways were on the softer side than I expected and were excellent to play from. The rough was consistent and wasn’t overly penal when you landed in it. Was still easy enough to advance the ball with your club of choice. The bunkers had very nice sand to hit from and was really surprised at this because of the windy conditions of the course. Nice bunkers and high wind don’t usually go together. The greens were harder than I expected given the fairways. Even on fully struck wedges it could be hard to get the ball to stop quickly.

The wind was howling all day around 15-25 mph. With 3/4 par 5’s and many of the par 4’s into the wind it made for a lot of long irons and hybrid into greens.

Even with the heavy wind it was a really enjoyable and fun round. The scenery and desert-scape is top notch and the lack of houses and civilization make the day and whole experience even better. This course is often written off as the lesser of the three on property but was still a well thought out design with plenty of decision making and intrigue throughout the round.

Played on Friday, 3/9, with a 10:40a tee time. I had very little interaction with the staff outside of the bag drop/cart barn guys, who were great. Probably the best cleaning my clubs have received at the end of the round (always a little disappointed with other cleaning the clubs). Due to it being the 2nd round of the day, our 3rd took care of paying ($70) and John_T took care of the food and drinks prior. I will say, on a very busy day (thanks for everyone visiting for the 4 basketball tourneys this week), it was incredibly smooth. On the 1st tee a couple of minutes early, and finished a shade under 4.5, waiting on a few with the 4some behind right up on us.

If you haven’t read a Paiute review ever, I will paraphrase almost everyone: (1) tee boxes mostly level with some divots on par 3s (2) Fairways like CARPET! Lush but with some run out
(3) Rough was about 1-2 inches, just enough to know you’re in it (4) Fantastic bunkers! Semi fluffy and easy to hit out (5) Firm and smooth greens, almost fast Tip: Remember where the highway is from where you are, putts are faster running away from the mountain behind it (6) it’s always breezy

Another fantastic day at Paiute. A great recommendation if looking for a great Vegas experience.

Played the Wolf on day 1 of my Birthday Bash.

Course is in great shape. Tee boxes and fairways very lush. Greens are in great shape. Some had a tiny bit of sand on them but it did not effect any putts. They are very firm and putted semi fast. Only drawback was the wind. It was howling. I have played in the wind before but I never saw shots drift thirty yards. Was in two bunkers and sand was excellent. Still a great day.

Saw the cart girl several times and customer service was great
