The Stadium Course at PGA WEST

Extremely difficult golf course but a lot of fun if you go in knowing you’re probably not going to have a career day. Greens were smooth and rolled well clocking in at 10.4. Starting to show a little dryness from the heat. The course itself was in good shape for early summer but again starting to show some signs of summer conditions which is to be expected. Pace of play wasn’t terrible but waited on almost every tee box after the first couple holes with a few holes having a group still teeing off when we got to the tee box. Overall very good experience from the staff, practice facility, and course.

3 Handicap - This is as good as it gets in my opinion. Was able to book a Hot Deal on a mid week round. 4 hour pace. Staff was 10/10. Course design is incredible and conditions were awesome. Can’t wait to be back.

Golf Course is super tough of course that is to be expected but I don’t think they have sprayed for bugs enough like prior years. If you go in may or June make sure to take your Off or bug spray because the flys and mosquitoes are REALLY BAD especially closer to the evening time.

The Stadium Course is challenging but fun to play. Hole #16 need better sign for penalty drops. There was no drop sign during our play.

Got a tee time at 3 pm for a good price. Super challenging layout which was very fun. Staff was friendly and professional. Got stuck behind a group that was playing slow but managed to finish 18 holes in almost 4.5 hours before sunset.

Unfortunately, we booked into a packed tee sheet of players who were going to be in a tournament there. Apparently, some of them somewhere in front of us preferred spending over an hour longer than necessary in 97 degrees heat. It's a great course, full of challenges and risk reward choices. But it is exhausting to play it on a very hot day with slow players.

We asked the starter about the pace of play and he said it was around 4.5 hours. As soon as we went off, we waited on every shot. We did not see a ranger until the back 9. We made the turn in 2.5 hours. The group in front of us was playing so slow and not playing ready golf. The ranger finally came by, did not speak to us and went on his way. We quit after the 17th hole, 5 hours and 10 minutes into the round. I don’t care how much I paid, no golf experience should take this long.

We all have our golf courses that we dream of playing. I finally checked this one off my bucket list with close friends. The experience was trully like a dream come true!

Everything was so pristine and the staff were professional and courteous.

The Statium course was out of my league at 134 from the Whites but enjoyed every stroke. My friend landed in the 16th bunker that looked like a scene from HackSaw Ridge where a pro took a 12 with 5 to get up up out of! Our other friend Birdied the infamous Alcatraz 17, what a beautiful hole.

What more can I say but can't wait to play it again. I can't wait to see the next PGA tournament there on T.V. and know that I experienced the same course!
