Perfect day to play golf

The weather was great and the course was in great condition. If have played the course for many years and never have witnessed the green so fast. They are too fast for the average golfer.

Pleasant Surprise

Finding good value during the week of the WM Phoenix Open can be a challenge. The four of us played in less than 4 hours and never felt rushed. The course is basically flat with some elevation when approaching the greens. While the forward tees are not a big advantage to our wives, they appreciate the roll they got from their tee shots.

I would recommend the course to anyone who asks look forward to playing again.

The staff was courteous, welcoming, and helpful!
