Rating 70.3

The golf course at the Western Skies Golf Club has a traditional layout with many different challenges and beautiful views. Surrounded by picturesque mountains and valleys, the course offers a taste of the countryside, which is further enhanced by the many aged Mesquite and Pinon trees sprinkled throughout. It features tree-lined fairways with generous landing areas and tricky water hazards. Two notable holes are the 4th and 7th holes, both par 3s. Although it is a modest 186 yards, the 4th hole requires a carry over water to a heavily bunkered green. Western Skies Golf Club's 18th hole is a drivable par four with water along the right side, making this an exciting finishing hole.

No on course marshal

Western Sky Golf Course if a good course. I played Saturday morning and was the first group off. Front 9 took 1 1/2 hours. As we turned the 9th hole Western Skys Start sent a 3 some out in front of our group. I was told this was their practice to send as many groups out in front of the first group playing 18. I went in the pro shop to ask why they just sent a group out in front of our group and one of the goofball starters said we just finished 9 holes in 1 1/2 hours and now we can wait for the groups in front of us. So after one of our long hitters hit on the group in front os us one of that group suggested they are playing slow because two guys in front of the where teaching their girlfriends how to play golf. Western Skys does not have on course marshals keeping the phase of play so all golfers enjoy their experiences. Western Skys does finished the back 9 in 2 hours & 45 minutes. What a joke!!!

always good but..........

Played Western Skies this past Tuesday and found the course to be in prett good shape. Greens were running pretty quick and the bunkers are in good shape with plenty of sand.My only complaint was the group in fron us us consisting of four older gentlemen were very slow. Finally called the proshop to suggest someone have a look as they were holding uo thw whole course. The Marshall drove by us and then right past them and never said a word. What a waste of gas! At this time of year when it gets dark early and everyone wants to finish their round the course should be on top of things like that.

Ma-ma-ma-mid

Not worth 78 dollars, extremely dry rough, decent/well maintained fairways. Boring layout. However very friendly staff and amazing pace of play but course conditions are my number one indicator of coming back and this one was 5/10 conditions.

Fun Course, Fantastic People!

Western Skies is always in great shape, 365 days a year. The wide fairways and big greens make it fun for all skill levels. But it's the people there that make it special. Including Jim, Kyle, Ed, Tanner, Matt, Parker, Maddie, Pays, and the whole crew. They will all treat you like family! (They do for me, and I'm a handful!) Five Stars!
