Badlands Golf Club the best desert golf course, says reader

In response to the golf course review "Badlands Golf Club: A desert course that's as tough as its name" at LasVegasGolf.com: Three of us played at the Badlands course the first week in October. The staff was courteous, the food at the restaurant better than most AND the course was everything that it is purported to be ... kind to the better players who hit the ball down the middle, yet punishing for those who err a little on their delivery.

I've played Club West in Phoenix and a few of the courses out in Palm Springs and chose this course based upon the "Best" desert course ratings. I was not disappointed. When my golfing buddy came back from searching for his errant tee shot and asked me if I had ever seen a ball's cover so chewed up ... I said that I had ... They were the same as those my retriever chewed on while I was practicing in my back yard.

Great place to test your abilities. If you bring your own clubs, beware! Hitting balls from any surface that is not green will damage the heads. Enjoy.
