Overview
Opening in 1976, the St. George Golf Course maintains an older style than the newer courses in the area. Greens tend to be flatter, which means there's a better chance for even beginning players to sink some long putts.
In addition to being flatter, the greens are larger, with a comforting fringe, allowing forgiveness for the not-quite-what-I-was-hoping-for shot that often puts golfers in a tight spot.
The par 3's are legendary, with significant distance combining with hazards and lakes to protect the greens. Also, because of its older layout, walking is a real option, with greens and tees being reasonable distances between each other, unlike the marathon hikes some modern clubs have.

The par-73 St. George Golf Course is, unsurprisingly, in St. George, on the southeast side of town. Take either Exit #6 or #8 from I-15 and head to South River Rd.
