Eagle Crest Golf Club — History
Eagle Crest opened in 1995 at Sun City Summerlin, an 18-hole executive course designed by Billy Casper with Greg Nash.
Design
Eagle Crest Golf Club — Design
Casper and Nash built Eagle Crest as a genuine executive course -- shorter, but designed so each hole would, in Casper's words, fit right in on a championship course.

A well-regarded executive course -- the quick, accessible round in the Golf Summerlin trio, designed by major champion Billy Casper.
The Round
The Journey at Eagle Crest Golf Club
I.
The Opening
Eagle Crest is a par 60 of six par 4s and twelve par 3s, and the opening six show the mix: the 327-yard 1st, three straight par 3s of 173, 137 and 204 yards, the 345-yard 5th (No. 3 handicap) and the 116-yard 6th. The club describes a course built into the side of a mountain, playing along some of the highest ground in Las Vegas.
II.
The Middle
Two more par 3s, the 131-yard 7th and the 160-yard 8th, lead to the 397-yard 9th, the No. 1 handicap. The back opens with the 343-yard 10th, rated No. 4, then the 154-yard 11th and the 224-yard 12th, the longest par 3 on the card. Even at this length the club says the course asks for every club in the bag.
III.
The Finish
The 404-yard 13th is the longest hole and the No. 2 handicap. Four par 3s follow in a row, at 169, 192, 120 and 112 yards, the last of them the No. 18 handicap, before the 369-yard 18th closes the round. Billy Casper's line, quoted by the club, is that any hole here could be dropped into a championship course and fit right in.
How to Play It
Eagle Crest Golf Club — Playing Strategy
Beginner / High Handicap
Three tee sets, Blue, White and Red, and a round the club says takes under three hours make Eagle Crest a practical place to learn. Twelve par 3s mean most holes are a single full swing to the green, and the 120-yard 16th and 112-yard 17th are the best chances for a first par.
Intermediate / Mid Handicap
With twelve par 3s from 112 to 224 yards, iron play decides the score. Know the carry numbers for the two longest, the 204-yard 4th and the 224-yard 12th. The six par 4s are where driver comes out, and the 9th and 13th, the two hardest holes, are also the two longest, so a solid drive there matters most.
Advanced / Low Handicap
A par-60 layout rated 60.6/95 from the Blue tees still uses every club, as the club puts it. The 327-yard 1st and 343-yard 10th are short enough to leave a wedge after a good drive, while the 397-yard 9th and 404-yard 13th need a mid or long iron in. Twelve par 3s reward precise distance control more than power.
