For a different kind of golf experience, head over to the Rio All-Suite Las Vegas Hotel for a round ofKISS-themed mini golf. You don’t even have to be a fan of the band to enjoy the trippy glow-in-the-dark décor. Who wouldn’t want to hit a golf ball up Gene Simmons’ outstretched tongue?

Golf is the ultimate battle between man and nature. It is a beautiful sport in which dreams come true and hearts are broken. Man is challenged on every stroke by nature’s elements. Wind and rain are only a few of the conditions that affect this great game. Undulating hills, sand bunkers, thick rough, and even creeks and ponds come into play on most golf courses. These features are fierce at Augusta National Golf Course. Located along the fall line, the natural beauty of the region is the perfect complement to this championship golf course. Every spring when the flowers are in full bloom, Augusta plays host to The Masters Championship and is transformed into the Mecca of Golf.
Meta: Golf is arguably the most gentlemanly sport in the world, with Pipeline49 now taking the game of the green and giving it a gambling edge. Closest to the Pin is the name, but will you be able to sink a putt when it matters most?
If you have searched Vegas swinger clubs for single males to no avail, do not count yourself out just yet. Did you know that you can invite one of our dolls to accompany you to a coveted lifestyle party? Just as in all corners of the country, single men are not widely accepted into the swingers lifestyle in Las Vegas. The reason for this is due to the fact that organizers do not want men attending for the sole purpose of hooking up. Which is somewhat of a double standard since that is what such parties are all about. Ultimately, if single men were welcome, the ratio of men to women at most events would be skewed. This would alter the landscape of functions designed for couples to enjoy sexual exploration in a comfortable setting. Single males,

Tiger Woods started playing golf in his garage, with a cut off club, when he was eleven months old. Now, twenty-six years later, he glides through the toughest, most widely respected golf courses in the world as if he was born to win. Golf course owners and managers change the distance from the tee-boxes to the hole in order to make the course more difficult for Tiger. He makes most courses look easy to play well on, despite the actual level of difficulty. He is the youngest player to win the Masters Tournament in the history of golf. Tiger makes over one million per tournament in which he places in t...
Three of my teammates and I were golfing together. We teed off at one o’clock. Walking down the fairway of number one looked just like a scene out of a movie. The lake off to the right and a line of trees along the left, were just gorgeous.
My most impressive aspect about this facility is the way the shop and the golf course is set up to their guest. In the shop they have a area that allows people from the public to come in and watch golf or just lounge around in the lounge area. They even have a few golf related games on the inside for the younger crowd they attract. I also admire how the club looks into making everyone around the community happy by giving free lessons out on special occasions.

Charles Macdonald was an early founder of American golf. He recalled playing golf in the Chicago area as early as 1875. Another promoter of golf, a young man named Andrew Bell from Burlington, Iowa, was initially exposed to golf when he went to Scotland to attend the University of Edinburgh. Upon his return to the United States in 1883, he laid out four informal golf holes on the family farm and played a few rounds with his friends. In 1884 Colonel Hamilton Gillispie, a former Scotsman who went into the lumber business in Florida, was known to hit golf balls in a field that is now the main street of Sarasota (History of Golf 7). Also in 1884, the Oakhurst Golf Club was formed in North Carolina now famous for it’s first hole from the Club’s Homestead course, celebrated to...
The basic system of just about every casino is that of the tables (including Roulette, Blackjack and Craps) filling the center of the room with computerized machines (including slots and video poker) that don’t need much tending to surrounding the area. Also, in many casinos there is a second floor surrounding the perimeter of the building with balconies everywhere so the main floor is still the center of attention. This setup brings the eye of casino patrons, wherever they may be, to the center of the casino. This strategic arrangement plays with the fact of human nature being drawn to the center of the action. Coincidentally, or not, the games in the center of the casinos are always the games where people often spend the most money. By chance if your eye isn’t drawn then perhaps the shrill of people winning will bring your attention. Don’t be fooled though, house advantage is always higher than...

I arrived in Las Vegas October, 2009, a long time ago, but I’m sure the energy of the city has not changed. Most people find themselves entering Vegas through the McCarran International Airport that has digital slot machines posted everywhere from the moment you depart the plane. That is one unique thing you will notice about Vegas; the thousands of digital slot machines playing poker, blackjack, and keno in McDonald’s, gas stations, and laundromats. It is normal out there. However, I digress. Most people typically find themselves swooping down on Vegas on domestic budget carriers such as Southwest and Spirit, simply because they offer extremely cheap prices from all
As it has been mentioned many times, Las Vegas is one of the most respectable cities when it comes to party. If you just visit Vegas, you will be stunned with abundant bars, casinos and restaurants. One of the chief reasons why partying at Vegas is completely different if equated to other regions is owing to the existence of Las Vegas strippers and escorts. The private strippers promise thoroughgoing fun and exhilarating entertainment. They cheer you to have a taste of the very best party in Las Vegas and you will confidently wind up wanting for more.
