Vegas in July is hot. Really hot. There's not much to do that's outside and enjoyable. Golf is honestly not that much fun unless your either really good or used to the heat (and maybe not even then).
That said, you should plan on indoor activities or things outside the valley. Hoover Dam is pretty neat, and they have tours. You can also rent boats on Lake Mead and explore it if you want. I think they even rent houseboats overnight.
In Vegas itself, I'd suggest staying by the pool during the day and hitting the casinos at night. That's when they're fun anyway.
As far as guidebooks, etc., I don't know of any that are actually any good. I'd shop the various hotels for the best deal. Since I've recommended pools, my favorites (in order) are: Mandalay Bay (The Hotel at Mandalay actually has the best), Hard Rock, Mirage, Caesars, Flamingo Hilton, MGM. But most of those are because there are, ahem, interesting people to watch. They've also got some neat water activities too.
Knowing a little more about what you're looking for would be helpful. For instance, if you want to go rent guns at the gun range (including fully automatic), I know where you can do that.
