Par 3 with Las in the background Photo submitted by u000005365082 on 11/20/2012
36 in 5.5 hrs.
Course tee to free in great shape. Great grass range and practice facilities. 2nd round was 29.99 with a beer and hot dog. Great value in a pristine course.
Arguably Best Conditioned Course in Vegas
Teed off early evening. Greens were an 8 out of 10, few balls marks but rolled very nicely, probably a 9 on stimp, medium speed. Fairways 9 out of 10, limited divots, beautiful color and played near perfect. Tee boxes 10 out of 10. Bunkers (I was only in one fairway bunker) played really nice. The view of the entire Vegas skyline on hole 15 is spectacular! 18th hole finisher is a challenge.
Bears best
Great course all of jacks favorite holes on one course
Great course in super condition
We played this course last year and it was in poor condition, this time it is in near perfect condition .
Highly recommend giving it a try.
The views are spectacular of both the mountains and the strip.
Bears Best
Bears Best is a beautiful challenging golf course Variety of holes keep it fresh. Greens were slow but in good shape. Course condition is excellent. Several multi million dollar homes along with views of the valley and strip give it added touches
Hot
The heat doesn’t bother me and I had the course to my self! No beverage cart on the course but that saved me 30$. I was playing so good I didn’t stop at the turn and pressed on with a great round and didn’t lose a ball. This makes the eighth time to play here.
Great value, beautiful course!
I have always enjoyed playing Bear's Best. It was hot and slightly breezy but we had the whole course to ourselves. Welcome to summer in Vegas. Everyone was so nice and the carts were very well equipped. Easily one of my favorite courses in Vegas!
Bad shape
play this course at least 10 times green used to be excellent never seen greens look so bad on a good golf course
Great Course
Course is always in excellent shape. My friends and I did the 2 golfers for $100, 2 sleeves of balls, 2 drinks. The problem was they need to specify what kind of drink. We took the ticket to get drinks and we found out they were only for $4 off or a soda. Probably should specify the drink so people aren't surprised. Then they couldn't get the discount applied to the drink. Literally took 10 minutes to get 1 rang through. Saw the beverage cart on hole 4. She said she would see us in a couple holes. Didn't see her until 17. Great course but the staffing could use some work on this day.
Everything was excellent
Great course, excellent facilities, excellent service!! One of my new favorite Vegas courses.
Excellent course, healing from aeration
I had played Bear's Best a few times when it first opened nearly 20 years ago and finally returned. Late May in NV so it was warm (mid 90s) but the weather was real pleasant for my late afternoon round.
The course is definitely a challenge if playing the "wrong" tees. I played some holes from the green (6628 yds) and it was tough and some holes from the white (6043 yds) and it was pretty easy. I am about a 10 HDCP who hits the ball average distance.
Unfortunately the greens had been aerated a week or two prior and the greens were extremely slow. The rest of the course was in pretty good shape, but not immaculate. Some bunkers were very thin on sand. Many greens did not hold. But overall it was fine.
The course is in a beautiful location up in the hills of Summerlin and some of the views are spectacular. Speaking of spectacular, it is worth playing the course just to see the mega mansions that border most of it.
Look forward to playing Bear's Best again when the course is in pristine shape.
Beverage Cart service almost non existent
Grill not available at turn. When was told by grill chef that he would take care of us but no show at turn. Also inside they were too busy taking care of goups who finished and ignore us on turn.
Challenging but fair course in great shape!
Easy check-in and teed off on time. Numerous challenging holes with adequate risk/reward. Like the replication of interesting holes from other locations too! Pace of play was decent and a slower foursome let us play through. Course was in great shape compared to others we’ve played in the area. All in all a fun day!
Fantastic course
Excellent day from start to finish. Good deal through golf now. Worth every penny. Lots of shots you really have to think about. Fairways to greens they were all in great shape.
great fun. Greens a bit rough
The place was really fun, especially if a Jack fan. But greens weren’t un great shape compared to courses nearby.
