Gamble on the Greens: Playing Nighttime Golf in Las Vegas

You’re with all your buddies, you’ve got some premium cigars, a bit of THC in your system, and are ready to sip on some cognac or cocktails. The moon is rising above Sin City, but it’s not late enough to hit the clubs or casinos.

How about gambling on a few holes at a golf course, sharing some laughs, and seeing what it’s like getting practice in at night while breathing in some fresh desert air? Yes, there is nighttime golfing in Las Vegas, because there’s enough light to go around – even for immense golf courses.

First, Best Golfing Strains

Before grabbing your clubs and heading to the greens, try out a few of these greens first:

Green Crack: Yes, this sativa is popular, but it’s one of the best in getting you pumped up for whatever endeavor lies before you. If you’re heading the golf course and need a pick-me-up to help excite you and get you ready for a great game with your friends, this one will help you focus while energizing you.

AK-47: A hybrid, what makes this strain great for a night of golfing is that it will mellow you out. It leaves you fully functional while maintaining a tingly, pleasant, body high. Perfect for pairing with a cocktail or cigar.

Emerald Jack: This one is similar to Green Crack regarding energy and focus, but your mind will want to be amused as well, allowing you to easily conversate with your friends in between holes. This is a great strain for socializing while keeping up with the game.

God’s Gift: As an indica, this strain will make you feel relaxed and calm more than anything. If you’re tense from a day in Las Vegas but want to loosen up for a few tees, this one’s your go-to. You’ll have a euphoric experience, and be amused by nearly anything (perhaps have a case of the chuckles). Be careful not to smoke too much as it will lead to sleepiness.
