Day 1: Demo Day at Las Vegas Paiute Golf Resort.
Thanks to a delay at LAX I was put behind schedule and really had to hustle to make it to test some of the newest products that will shortly hitting the shelfs and to give our readers a first look at what they can expect in the near future. I checked into my hotel, brushed my teeth, grabbed my camera bag, and hopped in a cab to pick up my badge at the show. The seven foot signs made it easy to navigate through Mandalay Bay and I literally power walked from the front doors to registration to make the last shuttle bus in time.
After a few minutes on the bus I saw a rare sight. Mountains. Las Vegas has beautiful mountain ranges that calm your senses so much I think it would even help lose some of the strokes on the golf course. This is for all the Floridians that have never seen mountains.
After 20 minutes on the bus I was really wondering if we made a wrong turn and knew the clock was ticking.
I was so excited when I saw green turf on the horizon but didn't know if it was a marriage or what. It turned out to be our final destination the Las Vegas Paiute Golf Resort.
What timing... Just as I arrived everyone else decided to break down and call it a day. I was a little disappointed but there was nothing I could have done. It was nice to do a little exploring and to visit a new destination.
Two good things that came out of the trip were Ball Balm lip balm and a tasty Elations health drink.____________________________________________________________________
Day 2 & 3: The Show
I have to admit after the trip to the middle of the desert made me pretty thirsty and eager to experience the nightlife of Las Vegas. I must have stayed out until 2am gambling and bar hopping (Yes, I actually won! $70 in my pocket spelled cab fair for the weekend.) but it looks like this fellow had a longer night than I did. Or it just might have been the heat.

____________________________________________________________________In the beginning I don't know what I was so worried about. I received tons of phenomenal feedback, got some promo gear, and made some great friends. I have a new favorite vacation destination (Las Vegas) and experienced some of the best times of my life in three days. I know one thing. Next time I am staying at the Wynn because it is the only luxury hotel with a beautiful golf course on site. I visited the Wynn to do a little sightseeing and gambling but some of the best sights I saw was when I was on the Las Vegas Monorail and it passed by the Wynn and you could see the golf course. I nearly fell over when I let go of the handrail to take a closer look out of the window and the monorail made a left turn. From what I could see it looks like the golf course at the Wynn has a wide range of water hazards, elevated tee boxes, challenging bunkers, and beautiful fairways that are all sure to please. I truly can not wait to go back.
