Palm Valley Golf Club Las Vegas
Palm Valley Golf Club Las Vegas - Palm Valley opened in 1989 as
the first of the three courses. This par-72 course is the
Golf-Summerlin's longest, playing to 6,580 yards, and its
rating/slope of 72/127 also ranks it as the toughest.
The mature layout is neatly manicured with undulating fairways
and rolling greens. Palm Valley's four par 5's are short to
medium in length; the longest two open and close the round. The
1st hole measures 537 yards; the 18th plays 534 yards. The
finishing hole is a slight dogleg right with water to the right
from tee to green and out-of-bounds left, so a premium is placed
on accuracy. Fairway bunkers left also come into play, and the
green is further guarded by bunkers left and back. The 177-yard
3rd hole is the shortest of the four par 3s. The 16th hole
plays
a demanding 229 yards to an elevated green guarded by three
bunkers left and a sharp drop off to the right. Palm Valley's
ten par 4s give players a good chance to try out all their
shot-making skills. The par 4s measure nicely across the
spectrum from the shortest, the 343-yard 14th hole, to the
longest, the 454-yard 5th hole that is rated the toughest on the
course. Water extends from the tee about 50 yards out, while the
fairway doglegs right and five bunkers right guard the turn. The
green is well-protected by three bunkers tight and in back.
