Shalimar Golf Club is a nine-hole golf course in Tempe. The course is best for beginners but it has enough challenges in store to make it a great option for more advanced players who want a quick round. The layout is comprised of three par 3s and six par 4s. It weaves through a smattering of mature trees and across gently rolling hills. The small greens can be quite tricky, especially since there are strategically placed bunkers lurking along some. Water hazards come into play on a few holes, including the 155-yard fifth, which is one of the golf course's toughest. You'll have to pull off a carry over the area's biggest lake to a heavily bunkered, narrow green. Shalimar Golf Club's ninth hole is the most well known though, mainly for the island green. In addition to the water, there are also four bunkers surrounding the green.

Why was I asked for a review?
I used to play Shalimar at least once a week in the period of 1990 - 2010, and was active in the Shaligusta club. I haven't played there in over a year. The glory days of Shalimar are long gone. These days there are are always better courses to play for less money. I don't know why I got an email requesting a review., but you asked for it, so you got it.
Shalimar rocks
I am NOT a primo golfer. I love golfing, but am not skilled at it, so I like to ride so I can spend more time looking for my banana shots to the rough. This course has the right amount of challenge for novices o4r experienced folks. A couple long n straights, a few curvy holes, some water hazards, particularly the island. Its is a fun course. The beers are cold, the burgers tasty, and everything is outstandingly, in my opinion, affordable. Keep up the good work Shalimar. Oh yeah. They have a practice area also. Fun to try aiming at flags, humps, and buckets.
Fine nine
Love to visit here each Spring while in the area. A nice nine holes with a few challenging fairways. Good for both long and short game work. Bargain replays, too.

Not what it used to be.
It has been many years since playing here and things have really gone down hill. The driving range was practically unusable, but the putting green was decent. The course was pretty rough and muddy. There has been no rain, so definitely an irritation problem. The winter Ryegrass was rough at best as well. I was really sorry to see this course in this poor shape. Winter rounds should be at least good if not great in the Phoenix area. Unfortunately, this course leaves a lot to be desired.

The greens are too close to the next hole tees in some holes which create a backup
