During a recent weekend golf outing in the Coachella valley I had a chance to stay and play with my wife and family at the Westin Mission Hills Golf Resort in Rancho Mirage.
The Westin Mission Hills is an exotic desert sanctuary that has two championship 18 - hole golf courses. The Pete Dye Course or as I like to call it the "Diabolically Dye" is distinguished by hidden pin placements and carries over water that test a players length and accuracy. There are also, pot bunkers that are to be avoided at all costs, abundant trees and railroad ties that bring a nostalgic aura to the course. The smaller of the two courses, the Pete Dye, plays to 6,

The Gary Player Signature course at The Westin Mission Hills Resort & Spa is an exclusive Callaway golf shop that features Callaway apparel,

The school is located at the south end of the Pete Dye Resort Course and features state-of-the-art swing analysis and video. The school also includes a full putting green and pitching green complete with a complex set of bunkers even Pete Dye would be proud of.
Because it is located on the grounds of one of the prettiest hotels in the desert, the Westin Mission Hills has the distinct advantage of being a place where you can spend your entire golf vacation never having to leave the resort property and if you bring your wife,
