Raven Golf Club - Phoenix features a one-of-a-kind round of desert golf. Its fairways are lined with Georgia pine, and its greens have more tiers than one - the kind of golf course that only Gary Panks and David Graham could imagine, and a can't-miss on your next golf trip to Phoenix. Over the ages, the golf club has garnered all sorts of recognition.

The layout features plush, rolling fairways framed by thousands of mature trees, as well as vistas of rugged desert mountains and the Phoenix skyline. The golf course's flexible, strategic design offers a challenge for all players, and the variety it presents will give you the opportunity to use nearly every club in your bag.

That said, the Raven Golf Club - Phoenix might be the perfect place to turn a business trip to Phoenix into a golf trip to Phoenix - it's handy to Sky Harbor Airport and downtown Phoenix.

Beautiful Course

Greens were firm and consistent, the course was very well maintained. I was very pleased with the friendly staff. Although we finished close to on time, we waited on almost every shot.

Nice Track - not so nice starter

Course overall in great shape - greens a bit questionable- they get lots of play and it shows on the greens.

Worst part was the starter - waited 10 mins for him to tell us to go to the 1st tee - guy just disappeared.

Great Course

Beautiful conditions Pace of play was quick but we were first out. We stopped for a bite at the turn which was delicious and offered to let the group behind us play through but they were fine with following. Nice staff at the pro shop and restaurant. This course was where Paul Bissonnette dusted the drunk guys that were hassling the staff so that alone makes this a 5 star in my books. I’d play this again in a heartbeat.

Course is amazing, groups ahead were horrible

Due to a very slow couple of groups in front of us, it took us over 5 hours to get through 18 as a 2 some. Groups ahead refused to let us go ahead of them and one of the old gentlemen in the group had a little bit of an ego but couldn’t hit his golf ball straight so that was fun to watch!
