Legacy Golf Club Review

The Legacy Golf Club typifies Las Vegas. Take a look at the 10th hole and you'll see why. The tee box on the Arthur Hills-designed course in Henderson, Nev., features tee boxes in the shapes of the suits in a deck of cards -- a spade, club, diamond and heart. While that is impressive, so is the golf hole. This par 3 requires a precise tee shot to an undulating three-tiered green. The key to this hole is making sure your tee shot ends up on the same level as the pin -- no easy task -- on this demanding hole that opens the back nine.

There are more challenges on this rolling course. Bunkers, rolling fairways and desert rock outcroppings both decorate the round and up the ante throughout.

The layout is home to the Devil's Triangle, a series of three holes on the back nine that can help make or break a golfer's round. The 11th is a 444-yard, par 4 that requires an accurate second shot into a large, undulating green that can be tricky to read. Par here is a good score and will help set up the next two holes that are very short and very deceptive. Holes 12 and 13, playing 381 and 324 yards respectively, require pinpoint accuracy off the tee. On both drives, a tee shot must avoid big trouble left, so it's better to lay up and leave a short iron approach into a pair of small greens. Both of the greens undulate severely and will challenge even the best putters. Get through these three holes even-par -- or maybe one under -- and head for the final five holes knowing you've tamed three of the tougher tests in the Las Vegas area.

The clubhouse features a nice dining selection, and an added feature is the drive-through snack bar between the ninth green and 10th tee. Golf clothing and clubs are available in the fully stocked golf shop. The driving range features both grass and mats, and there also is an excellent chipping and bunker play area and a large putting green. Top-flight instruction is available.
