The Round
The Journey at WildHorse Golf Club
I.
The Opening
WildHorse fits three par 3s into its first six holes on a front nine that plays to par 34. The 316-yard 1st, rated No. 11, leads to the 156-yard 2nd and the 403-yard 3rd, rated No. 3. The 205-yard 4th is the standout: a long par 3 with water running up the right side and pinching in at the front right of the green. The 543-yard 5th is the only par 5 on the front, and the 157-yard 6th follows.
II.
The Middle
The 380-yard 7th and 416-yard 8th build toward the 398-yard 9th, the No. 1 handicap, where two lakes hug opposite sides of the fairway. Water is in play on four front-nine holes in all. The back nine opens with the 416-yard 10th, then the 132-yard 11th, the shortest hole on the course and the easiest by handicap, and the 393-yard 12th.
III.
The Finish
The closing six hold the longest par 4, par 3 and par 5 on the card. The 441-yard 13th is rated No. 2 and the 252-yard 14th is the longest par 3. The 434-yard 15th leads into back-to-back par 5s, the 603-yard 16th and the 509-yard 17th, and the 371-yard 18th finishes the round. Water comes into play on three back-nine holes, and natural desert edges the fast, firm fairways.
How to Play It
WildHorse Golf Club — Playing Strategy
Beginner / High Handicap
WildHorse is fairly flat and one of the few courses in the Las Vegas area that suits walking. On the 205-yard 4th, aim at the left half of the green, away from the water that runs up the right and cuts in at the front right. The 132-yard 11th is the shortest hole and rated the easiest, a fair place to look for a par.
Intermediate / Mid Handicap
Par is 70 with only one par 5 on the front nine, so the 543-yard 5th and the back-nine pair at the 16th and 17th are where strokes come back. On the 9th, the No. 1 handicap, the tee shot has to split lakes on both sides of the fairway, so choose the club that finds the fairway rather than the one that goes farthest.
Advanced / Low Handicap
From the 6,525-yard Green tees the rating is 71.4 and the slope 136, and the length gathers on the back nine: the 441-yard 13th, the 252-yard 14th and the 434-yard 15th all come before the 603-yard 16th. Fast, firm fairways add roll, but desert lines their edges. The large, moderately undulating greens reward approaches to the correct section rather than the middle.
