Most people go to Las Vegas to gamble. Those huge casinos and hotels were built on the backs of gamblers who went to take their chances on the slot machines and gaming tables. But not everyone who goes to Vegas is gambling obsessed. It's a great spot for golfers because there are dozens of beautiful courses, and there are many opportunities to take lessons to improve your game.
