Lush fairways, Poorly Kept Greens

It is obvious the pro shop doesn't remind the players to repair ball marks. I don't think the Course Superintendant cares about the damage to the Greens either. Not one sign anywhere telling Ayers to repair ball marks. I've never played a course where there are SO MANY unrepaired ball marks that my putts hopped, turned, and slowed down so dang much. Each and every Green was horrible in this fashion. The course Superintendent could have his staff repairing the ball marks - if you aren't going to encourage the players to repair their own. For this reason, the course does not get a perfect rating.

Ohh... the speed of the Greens was medium fast. I like that. Whomever mows the Greens is doing a good job. Whomever is cutting the hokes is doing a nice job.

The Fairways are very nice, and the Tee Boxes are nice (lush grass, and a flat surface to begin off each hole). The course design is very chall enging, but also fair. Unique desert contrast with green green Fairways!

The only other negative comment is that if you don't hit the "short grass," you will be forced to take an unplayable lie. The desert part of the course is full of scrb brush and "river rock" so if you care about your clubs, you won't want to hit from the desert.

So, if you can drive it straight, you'll enjoy the course very much. Just don't expect much on the Greens in the way "putting true."

I wish I would've known because I probably would have chosen a different course.

Hi,

Thank you for choosing TPC Las Vegas and for taking the time to write about your round. It sounds like you had an overall excellent day with the exception of some unrepaired ball marks. For anything less than 5-stars, we apologize.

We take the repair of ball marks seriously and have instructions on our GPS to repair all ball marks at two points during the round. Besides, every golfer knows it is just common courtesy to repair a ball mark. In the end, we can only control player behavior so much.

With our lower rates during the summer, we receive a significant amount of play. Play levels, in conjunction with increased watering due to heat, increases the stress to greens. At times, our crew can not get to all imperfections, but please be assured we try.

If you are so inclined on a return trip to Las Vegas, please contact our Marketing Department at 702-256-2500 x230. We would enjoy having you out as our guest, during a time of the year when the greens will be absolutely perfect.

Thanks and take care.
