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.

Rough shape

The greens are in such bad shape that it’s not a fair test of golf. Even if you find the fairway off the tee and get to the green in regulation, you can’t score well because of the poor condition of the greens. I won’t be back until next Fall.

Toka Sticks is getting dry

The course is a great course but some greens and fairways are getting dried out.

Please add water especially on those greens.

Other than that this is a great course

Will not golf there again

Pace of play was slow. No marshal out helping with the issue. Course itself had gopher holes everywhere even in tee boxes.

Terrible..

Coarse is in bad shape. Can’t even put a tee in at the tee boxes because the ground is so hard. Sand traps are dirt traps. There is no marshal patrolling so the foursome in front of us spent 15 minutes fishing for balls at every water hole. This is maybe a 30 dollar coarse. WAY OVERPRICED!!!! Will not be coming back.

Toka sticks

9:30 time- started well-flat tree lined course-not much concern-elevated hard greens. Bunkers were good- surrounds were tight but predictable. We were a twosome - caught the twosome (20mins) in front on 9. They stopped at turn and all golf shut down. I can only say the course added groups on 10++. Ground to a halt. Hate that in golf- no respect for starting tee times. Finished front in 1.5 as a two-some. Back was 2.25 waiting on every hole. If you play this course- maybe jump the back first- then play the front?

Too pricey for condition

86 bucks to play and the greens were in the worst shape I’ve seen here. When you know they are that terrible and still charging almost $100 when it’s 90 out, the track is in rough shape, no bathrooms on the course , no thanks.

Some improvements are being made but still needs work

The new management is definitely working to make improvements but many of them seem to be surface level only. New tee markers and signs are nice to see. Many of the bigger bushes and trees have been trimmed and cleaned up so that is also nice. Where they are lacking is in actual grass coverage. Many bare spots throughout the fairways and greens. Tee boxes were so hard that it was difficult to get a tee in the ground sometimes. Seems like a lack of water but it could be something else. Will play again in the future to see if improvements have been made.

Perfect weather

Couldn't afford it all winter

Finally found a resonably priced tee time for our foursome. It was good to be back, they have whacked back all the huge Oleanders to small bushes and removed the cattails from the ponds. I suspect both will regrow. The course was in reasonable shape with some tendency toward browning on the greens. The staff was great.
