The Chase, a new Jack Nicklaus Signature Course at PGA Golf Club Coyote Springs, opened for daily fee play on April 25th, 2008. Located 50 minutes northeast of the Las Vegas Strip off US Highway 93, PGA Golf Club Coyote Springs is part of Coyote Springs, a 43,000-acre master-planned community under development by an affiliate of Wingfield Nevada Group Holding Company LLC (WNG), Coyote Springs Land Company LLC (CSLDC).
PGA Golf Club Coyote Springs is the first new golf course to open in the Las Vegas area in more than six years. PGA Golf Club Coyote Springs will be part of the larger, soon-to-be-built PGA Village at Coyote Springs – a mix of golf-themed retail, instruction and hospitality venues and the western home for PGA members. It is anticipated that construction of phase one of PGA Village Coyote Springs will begin this summer.
The Chase is a par-72 Nicklaus Signature Course that measures 7,471 yards from the Black or Championship tees (75.8 rating, 141 slope), 6,807 yards from the Blue tees (72.0/137), 6,268 yards from the White tees (69.7/132) and 5,349 yards from the Red or forward tees. The golf course has 11 water features, including one with a five-tier waterfall. Fairways, tees and rough are grassed in common ryegrass, while greens are bentgrass. Green complexes are fortified by deep, white-sand bunkers and feature plenty of movement and plateaus that are ripe for strategic pin placements.
The Chase is the first of two golf courses at PGA Golf Club Coyote Springs. The yet-to-be-named second course, a collaboration between Jack Nicklaus and architect Pete Dye, is expected to be under construction by 2010.
The Chase will operate out of a temporary golf shop until the permanent 12,000 square-foot clubhouse is completed, anticipated in Fall 2009.
