Unlike many other courses in Phoenix, the course at the Toka Sticks Golf Club was not done in a traditional desert-style. It is known amongst locals for having very fast greens, many of which are elevated. The old Toka Sticks course was originally a nine-hole course built in 1945 but in addition to making it an 18-hole, championship course, it has had many renovations in the years since to make it a more challenging and interesting course. There are stately trees present on the course call for straight shots in order to reach the narrow fairways. Two lakes are situated on the course that create water hazards that come into play on sever holes. There are also several well-placed sand bunkers throughout. Toka Stick Golf Club also offers a short game area, a putting green and a driving range.

Another enjoyable round

This round couldn't have been more enjoyable. I still feel the course conditions are among the best we have encountered this season.

Strange Xperience

When we went to check in there was nobody in the pro shop. After waiting ten minutes my self and now 6 other waiters went and got the starter, who hunted down the employee. Found it hard to believe that they had one person for the shop and snack bar.

The starter was excellent and sorted everything out,but they may want to look at staffing policy ,particularly on a weekend afternoon.

Pace was good .

Must say the starter was excellent and handled everything efficiently and politely.

Sand traps

As with many courses in the area there is little or no sand in the bunkers. In my opinion there should be at least two to three inches of sand in the greenside bunkers.

Jeff is great starter

Jeff made our so enjoyable. He held us back on the first tee, until group in front of us was on the green……..seemed odd to me as first hole was 368 yds away, but we didn’t have at any hole for group in front.

The round was so enjoyable……..Great job Jeff !

Terrible round

No course map on scorecard, no water at ALL on the course, cart girl came around 1 time in a 5hr round, dirt piles just randomly all over the fairways and even some greens.

It’s a Muni

Yup. It’s just a muni course. Nothing special, but okay. Fairways were generally good and greens were in good shape. The back nine is superior to the front with some nice layouts and the greens were good. It’s not a fabulous course, but it is fairly priced for the current market. We’d play again. Just don’t have $200 expectations for a $70 course.

Truly appreciate this course

When every track in the valley is asking for ridiculous green fees , Toka sticks is staying very reasonable and I truly appreciate it. The fairways were in very good condition and the greens ran true. The pace of play was very good. When summer comes and all the snowbirds leave town, this course will be on the top of my list because they aren’t trying to screw the locals

Nice conditions

Played mid-morning. Great pace. But looked like slow play started behind us. The group behind us quickly fell behind us. Good thing we got out before 10AM.

Fairways in very good shape. Greens rolled true. Not many flat greens. Challenging. Bunkers could use a little more sand.

C+

Course is ok. Greens were a little beat up. No food or drink options until 8am. Greens fees are $77 for 18, little steep.

Not going anywhere for awhile?!

The round cost $77 and took 4 hours and 40 minutes and there were only 3 of us in our group. Fairways were in decent shape and most greens were ok, except #10 literally had a hole in the middle of it,. While the track is fun and somewhat forgiving (as noted by golf balls flying across fairways), it's not worth the cost or the time. Save you $$$ and hopefully it will play quicker in the late spring/summer.

Good Course, painfully slow

Really like this course. Played it multiple times over years. Staff, greens excellent. Some tee boxes really uneven and in repair. Great layout. But 5+ hours is a deal breaker. Either need course marshall and/or larger gaps in tee times. Don't think I'll be back sadly.
