 Wildhorse
Golf Club Wildhorse Golf Club, located in Henderson
is one of the Las Vegas area's classic courses. Opened originally
in 1963, it was redesigned by Robert Cupp and Hubert Green
in the early 90s.
The 18th at Wildhorse is still considered one of Vegas' toughest holes, despite a modest yardage of just 398. A greenside lake, along with surrounding bunkers have ruined many good scores. The rest of the course, which winds through Henderson housing is heavily shaded with many tall, mature trees.
Other challenges at Wildhorse are the strongly undulating greens and the fact that water comes into play on 10 of the 18 holes.
Wildhorse plays 7,041 yards from the championship tees, but four sets of tees play as short as 5,331 yards. A Nike Golf Learning Center is on site at Wildhorse, so you can work out any last minute kinks before tacking the dreaded 18th.
Once considered a local favorite, and a former stop on the PGA Tour, the Wildhorse Golf Club still offers the beginning to intermediate player an enjoyable round of golf at a comparably comfortable price.
