• A unique opportunity to learn on one of the most recognized golf courses in the world! Wolf Creek is a beautiful desert landscaped golf course located in the hills of southern Nevada.

This course is truly a video game designed in real life with over 290ft of elevation changes throughout the property. With its unique landscape it opens and creates a great opportunity to learn a complexed irrigation system, micro manage many different climates throughout the golf course, managing bentgrass putting surfaces through desert climates,  overseed wall to wall in late summer, and many other great challenges to overcome at a once in a life time golf course.

This is only a small sample of what is yet to come. As you navigate the elevation drops and wandering canyons, you wonder how they create this miraculous golf course, each hole unto its own.
