Day 13 - 2013 100 days, 100 courses (Tuesday, March 26, 2019)
Finally a course near civilization but one that also has a history of financial problems.
Apparently, both the course and the surrounding development went bankrupt in the 2007-2009 financial crisis, but have come out of the other side over the last 10 years.
I am mad at myself because this course was laid out to shoot low. (For me that would be in the 80's), straight fairways, not too challenging greens but I just couldn' get it together. Chunking shots, missing putts. Not my best outing.
It's a course that I would like to go back to and see what I could do with a little better round. But alas I don't think that is to pass so I will leave my two balls there in peace.
I am now leaving Las Vegas and moving on.
