three years.

MGP,
Just wanted to let you know we had a great trip and most definitely will be
booking our golf package with you again. For anyone considering booking through MGP you have made
a good decision. Everything was taking care of from the hotel and the three golf
courses to all questions I had. You can't beat the price either and the golfing
in Mesquite wow wow and wow! Don't miss Wolf Creek Golf Course now that's a
roller coaster of a 18 hole experience.
Falcon Ridge Golf Club
opened all 18 holes in late 2004 to an onslaught
of eager golfers. The golf boom hit Mesquite,
Nevada quickly and Falcon Ridge is sure to
soon be a Mesquite favorite!
The
Kelby Hughes designed 6800 yard spectacular
layout offers two contrasting nines with an
emphasis on shot placement over sheer length.
Many holes do not require a hefty driver off the
tee, yet a well placed, smart shot to a specific
landing pad to set up a good approach shot. Once
on the green, players are in for a putting treat
with some of the best rolling greens in
Mesquite, Nevada.
The outward nine begins with a warm-up,
reachable par 5. However, it's a bit tricky,
lookout for the white-sand bunkers down the left
side this opening hole, and pay attention to
yardage on the approach, the greenside bunkers
will snatch up any errant or off target shot.
The second hole is a wonderful par 3 with the
green tucked up into a spectacular red-rock
cove. The tee shot is all carry over a beautiful
blue lake and is perhaps one of the front nine
highlights.
Arguably, signature hole of the front side comes
at the par 4, 6th. Golfers face a knee-knocking
downhill tee shot with a massive, hang-time
elevation drop. While the this is a very tough
fairway to hit, compounded with a water hazard
to the right the hole is short and is a possible
birdie scoring opportunity. The outward holes
give you a nice warm up for what is in store
from the back nine.
On the Par 5, 10th tee many players collectively
shake-in-their-boots at the daunting task ahead.
The tee shot is another breathtaking intimidator
with a menacing shot over a large lake and two
fairways to hit to, as winding river running the
entire length of the hole, makes you decide;
Hero? or Coward? This split fairway will tempt
longer hitters to drill one up the left side to
for a possible chance to reach the green in two.
The approach shot is no easy feat from either
fairway, an uphill carry with a spectacular
cascading waterfall and lake short, right of the
green. Hopefully you can escape this hole
without a big number.
The next highlight of the inward holes comes at
the Par 5, 12th. Again, another insane tee shot
with a small landing area about 200 feet below,
except on this one you have bunkers and water in
play to the left side. This hole is almost
impossible to reach in two, the approach shot is
guarded by an large lake that runs the length of
the hole to a slight dog-leg right, tucked-in
heart shaped green. Most players lay-up to about
150 out and take their chances with a short
iron.
Wanted to let you know that the golf package you put together for us was
outstanding!!! The golf courses were fantastic, and the views from the
courses will be remembered forever! Will keep your info on file, and
when we return, will have you schedule our trip.
A BIG Thank You!
