Top notch greens

This is a fun track with plenty of challenges along with opportunities to score. The greens are in amazing condition. Every put rolled fast and true. Driving range is nicely groomed with good greens to hone in the iron distance before heading out. Fairway grass was in good shape, nothing special but overall this is one of the best courses in the area. Will be back for more birdies.

Golfing under the airplanes

I’m not sure if I love the hobby planes flying overhead or hate them. I suppose it depends how often I

Able to keep it in the fairway honestly. Tucked away in the new corner of the red mountain 202 makes it very easy to get to. The staff are always very professional. Great course overall.

Very Distracting and Slow

I was surprised how slow the pace of play was. On top of that, it was very difficult to concentrate because of the numerous airplanes taking off and landing so close to the course. Maybe for the price I paid, it was worth the distraction and the fear of an airplane landing in the fairway.

In pretty good shape for the time of year

Very playable, the bunkers are mostly dirt though.

Tees, fairways, greens in decent shape.

Staff is great.

Good Playing Conditions

Course over-all was in generally good shape, particularly with it being 110+ degrees in the AZ heat. Fairways were very playable, while greens were true and fast. Sand traps (and there are quite a few) could use more sand. As a single, played through one foursome and completed the round in just 2 hours and 50 minutes. Definitely a challenge from the champion tees and worth checking out ASAP..

receptive greens

When I played there before, it was next to impossible to get a ball to stop on the greens. This time the greens were a little slower and it made the course a lot more fun. The staff was friendly and they were great about separate carts. This is so important to me during the pandemic. Love golf, don’t want to die for it.

maintenance crews

I would have given this course a higher rating if not for the maintenance crews. Twice they were parked in front of the greens with their carts. They would turn and look at me and completely ignore me. I realize that you must get some work done, but I'd think you'd let the golfers through. Nope. Maybe some people would just fire a shot up near them, but I don't want to hit anyone. Having to stop and wait for an undetermined time really breaks up your rhythm. Eventually they would finish up and leave so I could continue on. This happened several times.

Otherwise the course is in decent shape for summer. A little thin is some places which happens this time of year. Greens look like they have recently recovered from aeration. Fast, but good shape. Sand traps are just traps. A thin layer of dirt and very little sand. Played from the "Green" 5-9 Handicap tees. Shot 75.

Not Troon Like

With Covid changes they needed more people working. I had to go to the hut where a few workers were stationed to request anything or ask questions.

The course was is poor shape for a Troon course. Greens were damaged and not kept up properly. Sand traps had no sand in them and felt like I was playing a city course. My cart died on hole 14, just stopped working abruptly. Had to ride with another guy which wasn’t something I wanted to do with Covid. Overall, didn’t feel like a Troon course

Great Father’s Day

I went out for a mid morning round in the really hot 106 degree Arizona sun. I was paired with 3 others and we were given 3 carts total to accommodate the COVID 19 regulations. The course supplied water bottles with ice in the coolers, the ranger had water, the beverage cart, and the cart barn all had water bottles as well.

The course was in typical Arizona summer conditions but better than other courses I had played recently in the area. Great pace of play and overall a great experience.
