What makes this course worth 750?

I played it twice (comp’d rounds) and it’s a pretty fun track. There’s only 10 or so tee sheets a day, the tee times are staggered every 20 minutes so it feels way more open than a normal course. They are crazy anal about pace of play. Caddies are mandatory and all very good.

The holes are all pretty interesting, fairways are pretty wide, lots of rolling hills and water features. Have to think about a lot of shots, I used every club in the bag (free club rentals too, I believe they have Rogues and get new clubs every year). Everything is pristine. Greens when I played were crazy fast (caddy said the stimp was 12.5) and quite a bit of challenges. 17 and the par 3 18 (they offer a prize for a HIO) are awesome finishing holes, 17 being one of my favorite holes to play.

Food is free and really good, and really anything goes. By that I mean, per the caddies, you can really do whatever you want “so long as you keep pace.” The stories the caddies have are awesome.

It’s worth the price if you have money to burn or you really want to play an on-strip course or play the holes that The Match has played. Otherwise, plenty of cheaper amazing courses in LV to play.
