Ron Arnst's HMG Course Collection Summaries
HISTORY MAKER GOLF Championship Golf Game • Course Summaries Course Collection ONE Blackjack GC, Las Vegas NV / based on TPC SUMMERLIN TPC Summerlin’s layout, carved from a magnificent swath of rugged desert terrain by renowned golf course architect Bobby Weed, provides a good reference for the Blackjack GC. TPC Summerlin’s lush bentgrass greens, numerous water features and an abundance of pine trees all contrast dramatically with undisturbed desert washes. The course features four closing holes that deliver top flight golf drama. The final charge begins with the par 4, 15th hole – a drivable par 4 that will temp most players. If the tee shot misses the green, an “up and down” birdie is possible, but not easy, due to the severely elevated and undulated green – which is surrounded by five bunkers that regularly attract stray tee shots. The 16th hole is a relatively downhill par-5 that is reachable with two good shots. The green is guarded by water short of the green, and bunkers beyond. Only a mid-iron will be necessary for the second shot, with a birdie almost a certainty. A challenging and un-nerving par-3, the 17th hole plays downhill with the green guarded closely by a lake on the left and by bunkers on the right. Par is good score and birdies are rare, should players need to make up ground. The 18th is a well-designed and strategic finishing hole which moves right to left off the tee. The green is protected on the left by a lake. An aggressive tee shot with the driver can leave the player just a short iron to a very deep green from front to back. -

We are excited about the event and the privilege of hosting some of the top collegiate players and teams from around the country. We are hopeful that you will enjoy the challenges and thrills of the wonderful golf course that Pete Dye built for us. Crooked Stick has a rich history in terms of world-class championship golf. We began our relationship with the USGA by hosting the 1982 Boys Junior Championship and have since hosted five additional USGA Championships including the 1993 U.S. Women’s Open and most recently the 2009 U.S. Senior Open. John Daly’s historic win in the 1991 PGA Championship, the United States victory in the 2005 Solheim Cup along with the BMW Championship in 2012 and 2106 have also been highlights of the Club’s competitive golf history. As you can see hosting major golf events and testing the best players in the world under championship conditions is one of the goals of our membership. We are pleased to continue that tradition by hosting this Collegiate Invitational. It is our hope that players, coaches and spectators have a wonderful experience here at Crooked Stick. While it’s late in our golf season, we are confident the golf course will be challenging and enjoyable. Lastly and most importantly I hope you will please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your visit more enjoyable. -
