Longbow Golf Club

Other courses look like dog tracks compared to Longbow. A fee tee boxes renovated but otherwise immaculate.

Longbow is a great golf course. It is challenging but fair. The course was in excellent condition even though we had record high temperatures. They had coolers filled with water bottles every 3 holes. That was such a great service especially since it was 110 degrees.

I don’t write many golf reviews. I’ve played every course in the valley, both summer and winter, and right now for this time of year the course is in premium conditions. Greens rolled true, not many burnt out pieces of grass, and most holes offer a variety of different shots. Most par 3s are short aside from the last of the day but pin placements can be difficult. Par 4 are different around the course with a drivable par 4 on the front 9 and some that play around 450 throughout (depending on tees of course). Par 5s are scorable but definitely honest. To shoot a good score it certainly takes some good shots, but overall love how every hole presents a unique challenge. The only downside of the course is the lack of shade. Definitely recommend a late afternoon round or early morning in the summer, but for the lack of shade the course certainly is kept in good shape. Great for the price. Tee’d off at 5:47 pm on a Wednesday and played 18 by 7:39. Sprinklers came on at 7:30 so I would suggest going out at 5:30 at the latest.

Fairways are as good as July allows, greens are improving from micro-punch, most bunkers have good sand and staff is awesome. Longbow is best in Mesa.

I understand trying to find a great conditioned course, without paying an arm and a leg, this time of year is a challenge. A lot of bare spots in the fairway and greens haven’t recovered yet from punching. Mixed feelings about playing again until, maybe, October!

I’ve been wanting to play this course for a long time but as everyone knows this course during season is way over my budget. Playing in the summer cannot image how much nicer it could be for4 to 5 times the amount I just payed. What a beautiful course, yes the greens were aerated but deal with it. It’s summer in AZ. Would play this course all the time, what a nice place. Thank you for a great day even though it was a little warm outside. Also to my playing partners Randy, Dan and Dana it was a great time.

First time playing longbow !!! Love course lay out and with hot and dry weather greens we're great !!! Would play this course again !!! . Was nice to see water available out on course in coolers !! Thank you

Included are a small bag of range balls and water bottles throughout the course. Very nice outdoor patio for a beer afterwards.

This course is on of the top courses in the East Valley. It’s a great layout and generally in great shape. However, the tees and greens were good, but the fairways were the worst I’ve seen here. They were still playable, but tons of bare areas and maybe even fungus looking. A few of the greens had the same thing, but only in small spots.

No matter, I still enjoyed my time, the golf course, and the new friends I made in my foursome. We finished in just over 4 hours and beat the heat! Lol. Hopefully the remedy the fairways, as this is a great course to play. God bless!

Played this course for the first time, glad I was paired up with someone who had experience on the course. Greens were hard and firm, course was set up fair. The staff there is a little weird about giving out the cart keys until right before your teetime. I guess that’s how they control it, anyway overall good experience.

Greens were hard and fairways mostly brown - need a little more water in the right spots.
