Montreux Golf & Country Club - Reno, NV

One of the downsides to being an avid golfer not only on the west coast, not to mention in the northwest corner of our country is that the PGA Tour doesn't give us many chances to see the best players in the game. The only tour stop that gets anywhere close to the northwest is the Legends Reno Tahoe Open, hosted by Montreux Golf and Country Club. The PGA Tour couldn't have a better home in Reno with Montreux, it's hard to find a finer country club on the west coast, period.

From the moment you enter this private gated golf community, you're presented with perfectly landscaped surroundings and a golf course that is as nicely manicured as you can get.

Montreux was designed by Jack Nicklaus and is one of his Signature Courses. Nicklaus was true to form, he created a course that challenges every aspect of your game and requires true shot making with every club in your bag. Would you expect anything less from the course that Jack includes in his top 5 of all time. There area also some incredible landscape and design elements throughout your round, including numerous bronze statues depicting local wildlife positioned on the course and the main drive.

Although the course is a monster at almost 7500 yards from the tips, the course starts you out with the hardest rated hole first, a 494-yard par four. The drive isn't that difficult thanks to the generous landing area. It's the approach that can make for a difficult start to your round. The green is guarded by bunkers and a lake that follows the shape of the green that runs away from you.

If you're fortunate enough to play Montreux, you will be challenged throughout your round to make par on numerous par fours that stretch over 440 yards. Montreux is a jewel and one of those rare private clubs that gets it, a complete experience for the member.

The Resort at Red Hawk - Reno, NV

The Resort at Red Hawk is the only Northern Nevada golf course to be voted 8 times by Nevada Magazine as Best Golf Course in Northern Nevada. There are two courses at Red Hawk, the Lakes Course is public and the Hills Course is private.

The Lakes Course was designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr. and challenges your game with natural lakes, springs and large cottonwood trees. The course stretches a respectful 7140-yards and several holes jump out at you by just glancing at the scorecard. Tread lightly on the third hole, a 422-yard par four with an approach shot over water and the following hole is a 220-yard par three over water with the prevailing wind in your face. Don't make the mistake of counting your bets before finishing the seventeenth hole, a fierce 241-yard par three over water with little room for a bailout, truly a great golf hole.

The Resort at Red Hawk has a great tournament package known as the Total Tournament Package. From start to finish, Red Hawk's award winning facilities and staff will handle your group outing in a professional and enjoyable manner. Attention to detail and phenomenal courses are what sets tournaments at Red Hawk apart from other Reno and Sparks golf courses. In addition Red Hawk's 4,500 square-foot Events Center handles groups of up to 300.

Three-Time U.S. Open Champion Hale Irwin was instrumental in bringing soul and purpose to his Signature Design Hills Course. The Hills Course is known for its small greens, dramatic elevation changes and deep bunkers filled with "Augusta" white crushed marble.

Right out of the gate the Hills Course makes a statement with a 611-yard par five. The sixth hole is correctly called Pah Rah Pain, a 484-yard par four that is uphill will leave you in just that, pain. Don't get too comfortable at the turn with that tasty sandwich and beer in hand because the next three holes lie in wait. Fittingly called The Beast, the tenth hole is a 700-yard par five that has bunkers down the right side and is followed by a 242-yard par three that is a close relative of The Beast. And if that's not enough punishment, the final hole of this pack is a 451-yard par four. The Hills Course has a great character and feel to it that will bring you back again and again.

After your round, enjoy a beer and an award-winning H's burger at David's Grill.
