The Scots developed golf to irk common loch pests, such as merats, locharoaches, and Nessie—who to this day rarely surfaces for fear of being beaned by a well-aimed ball. Brush up your monster-vexing skills with today's Groupon: for $85, you'll receive a round of golf for two with cart rental, plus two buckets of range balls at the Legend Course at ArrowCreek Country Club (up to a $170 value).

Designed by legendary golfer and course architect Arnold Palmer, the Legend Course's lush greens and fairways beautifully interlace with the surrounding desert to create an idyllic golfing experience set in the shadow of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Called "Reno's Best Kept Secret" by LasVegasGolf.com, the scenic landscape provides panoramic views and challenging course play for all skill levels. Golfers will face a healthy balance of par 3s, 4s, and 5s that present accuracy-testing obstacles such as sandy bunkers, tranquil water hazards, thick desert brush, avian hecklers, and rolling terrain.

Two buckets of range balls allow golfers to warm up and practice on the 50-tee driving range, and a powered golf cart provides a safe haven for honoring Arnie by chugging iced tea and lemonade concoctions as well as an efficient carriage for expediting golfers on their tee-to-tee traversing.
