The Stadium Course at PGA WEST

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!

The gps system is way put of date. Too hard to figure out carries, hazard distance, and pin position. The pin sheet is difficult to understand because if you are approaching green from differing angles, distance do not seem to match or interpret. Otherwise great layout. Would have been nice to know the greens were recently sanded as well

Course is beautiful, tee’d off at 3pm took over 2:30 hours to finish the front 9 because the pace of play was slow. The back 9 wasn’t even playable because of 50-60 mph wind gusts, so bad the wind ripped the flag off the pole on 14. Course was is great condition, group enjoyed our experience just wish the wind wasn’t so extreme. All in all it was fun playing shots you see pro’s play.

Tons of fun to play and very playable. Cant wait to play again.

Beautiful course

Played here before and seem to enjoy more every time

Wonderful course. Unreal feeling when you walk in and see history in front of you. Clubhouse and range are top tier. Every hole is personal and challenging. The best course in the desert hands down. Classic club is second but not close. The water features are awesome but if you are more than a 10-15 handicap don’t play. I’m a scratch and shot 86. Course is extremely tough. 4th hardest course in America for a reason. Stepping onto every tee box and seeing how perfect every hole was is the best feeling in golf. Had a great time staff was great and saw Big John. What a day for the boys.

Course layout and conditions were excellent.

Staff very friendly.
