Rhodes Ranch Golf Course closed the golf course several weeks ago due to the shape of their greens. Last year the course got all new greens but due to weather conditions and other factors the green did not take hold.

After assessing the situation the management decided to close the course and re-sod the greens. This is a dramatic step but was necessary to return the golf course to it's former glory.

Rhodes Ranch has always had one of the strongest layouts in the Las Vegas Valley and it will be great to see the greens come back. I spoke with Mike Stewart, Director of Golf, on Monday and he informed me that the new sod was taking shape and the course should be re-opened for play on May 11, 2007.

The greens at Rhodes Ranch Golf Club are a defining feature of the golf course. They are large with several greens having multiple tiers. Since the course opened the green have always been in great shape. They have been fast and smooth.

The greens will be sodded with a Tip Dwarf Bermuda grass which provides a great surface and is very durable during the hot summer months in Las Vegas, NV.

Be sure to check out the new greens when they come back online in May.
