16th Hole at Bali Hai (141 Yard Par 4)
What to Expect: In the fantasy world of Las Vegas the goal of Bali Hai is to deliver a course theme that takes the golfer to the South Pacific. Like most Vegas experiences, an exceptional job is done to create this fantasy world but there is always something that reminds you that you are still in the Nevada desert oasis, and in Bali Hai's case it is the airport. Bali Hai is the most convenient course to the famous strip and is pinned on the other side by the airport which sees flight coming in every few minutes. So while there are moments that the golfer is really soaking up the beautiful surroundings and fantasy setting, he is snapped back to reality while standing over an approach shot and trying to concentrate while a 737 is flying over. Beyond those pluses and minuses, the layout at Bali Hai is solid. There are several holes that feature water hazards and the collection of par 3s are as pretty and challenging as any grouping in Vegas. The 18th hole has been recognized as one of the finest par fours in Las Vegas and delivers a challenge, beauty, and satisfying finish to a memorable round of golf. By the Numbers:
