Send us a textEpisode 33 - March 11th, 2020 -First off I want to say we fixed the audio issues from the first episode. Hopefully, the poor sound hasn't detoured you from tuning in to part two of this series where we rank the Las Vegas Golf Courses. Originally this was going to be a 3 part series, but after going through the editing there was just so much good talk between Joe and me that I didn't want to take much of it out. This episode takes care of the rankings from #37 to #24. Here's the list: #37 Bai Hai (60.0) #36 Angel Park - Palm (61.5) #35 Angel Parl - Mountain (62.5) #34 Highland Falls (64.0) #33 Spanish Trails Country Club (64.0) #32 Rhodes Ranch (64.5) #31 Stallion Mountain (66.0) #30 Wildhorse (66.5) #29 Desert Pines (69.0) #28 Bears Best (71.0) #27 Legacy Golf Club (71.5) #26 Siena Golf Club (71.5) #25 Wolf Creek (71.5) #24 Las Vegas National (73.0) - continues in the next episode We'll pick it back up in the next episode where this one left off before we knock out the final Top 15 Courses in the final episodes of this series.  So what was meant to be 3 episodes has turned into 4. We think you'll enjoy how it all ends up. We hope you enjoy this week's episode, and if you do, please consider leaving us a review on either Spotify or iTunes. Thank You!

Send us a textEpisode 31 - March 5th, 2020 -About 6-8 months ago, I noticed a considerable uptick in visits to my Vegas Golf Ranking page on the website. Since then, it's been by far the most popular page on The Breakfast Ball. I updated it enough that it stays valid, but it had me thinking about recording a show regarding the same topic. I reached out to Joe from HittinGreens about recording the show with me, and he thought it was a great idea as well. We did this on a points system and then averaged our two rankings out for a final number. The points are broken down like this: GOLF COURSE:  Design - 15pts  Practice Facility - 15pts  Course Conditions - 15pts  Atmosphere - 10pts The total points possible on the GOLF COURSE section is: 55pts OTHER FACTORS:  Pro Shop - 15pts  Staff - 10pts  Price - 20pts Total points on the OTHER FACTORS section is: 45pts For a grand total of 100pts We wanted the main ranking to be based on the golf course, and that is why there is a higher value of points available. But, we also know other key factors that go into choosing where to play. Price, for instance, is a MAJOR element in deciding if you'll tee it up or not, and that is why it has the point value it does, but it doesn't exceed the golf course total value. Here is a list of the courses we talk about in this episode with the ranking number:  #53 Las Vegas Golf Center (29.5)  #52 Painted Desert (33.5)  #51 Durango Hills (41.0)  #50 Sunrise Vista (47.0)  #49 North Las Vegas Par 3 (48.0)  #48 Aliante Golf Club (48.0)  #47 Boulder City Muni (49.0)  #46 Palm Valley (53.5) #45 Los Prados (54.0)  #44 Las Vegas Golf Club (56.5)  #43 Arroyo Golf Club (56.5)  #42 Desert Willow (57.0)  #41 Eagle Crest (58.0) #40 The Club at Sunrise (58.5)  #39 Canyon Gate Country Club (59.0)  #38 Angel Park - Cloud 9 (59.5) We hope you enjoy this episode and be sure to leave us on comment on the @hittingreens Instagram page or also on the @thebreakfastball page. Thanks for listeningWe hope you enjoy this week's episode, and if you do, please consider leaving us a review on either Spotify or iTunes.
