  1. The Mountain Course (Incline Village, NV)

    I played the Mountain Course in Incline Village this weekend. This is a tough short course (par 58 ) that winds its way though the woods with a number of narrow fairways with ball-eating brush luring on either side. For the most part, if you hit it straight, you’ll do ok. If you go left…
