Raven Golf Club - Phoenix

About
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.

Absolute gem
Amazing course in all aspects. In as good shape as most courses are in peak season even in the last weeks of summer. One of my favorite courses in the valley

Thank you for the 5 star review. We are glad you enjoy the Raven! Hope to see you back out on the course soon!
Best course played summer 2024
Everything about this course was 1st class. Could not ask for better conditions from tee boxes and fairways and greens and sand traps had soft sand . Awesome condition for the course and in Phoenix Az, in August the weather was over cast with few drops of rain to keep things cool as in can be in August in Phx.

Thank you for the great feedback! We look forward to seeing you again.
Incredible condition
First time playing, have been wanting to for a while. Extremely worth $50+ for an afternoon hot summer round. Fastest greens I’ve seen since sterling grove in April. They rolled so true. Fairways are beautiful. Course is very immaculate for this heat. Overall a very fun round, loved the layout. Nothing too difficult but not boring and simple. Will absolutely be back. Only downfall was i10 traffic after the round lol

Thank you for the 5 star review. We are glad you enjoyed the course conditions!

Thank you for the 5 star review!
Great summer course
This course was in amazing shape for being August. Was very impressed. Worth the price

Than you for the 5 star review. We are pleased to hear you were pleased with the conditions.
Near perfect
The course was near perfect! The only reason it wasn’t perfect is because I was comparing it to itself and majoring of the time you can’t find a blade of grass that is brown, but this summer has been blistering with no relief. The superintendent has always done a spectacular job! Love this course

Thank you for the 5 star review. The golf course is looking better each day!

We appreciate you taking the time give us a great rating! Thanks for playing the Raven!
GOOD DAY ON PLAYING GOLF
The place is awesome!! The price is a little high, but you will not be disappointed. Watch out for hole 1 as there is alot of range balls mixed in if you go left.

Thank you for the 5 star review and hope to see you back on the course soon!

Thank you for the 5 star review.
Really Dry
I have always loved the Raven and it’s layout. I know that they have been having some water problems lately. They are still maintaining the course as best they can but it is extremely dry and firm.
Overpriced
The legacy golf course next door was $35 cheaper and in better shape. Great staff golf course not good. Arvid golf is terrible at course management and maintenance and price was way to high for summer price. $103 to play. What a joke Arcis. They are in it for the money not the game.

Thank you for the feedback. We hope you give us another try.
Punched greens with no warning.
Didn’t find out greens were punched until we were on the first hole. No alert on golf now or from the pro shop. Sprinklers were on 70% of the holes. Still shot 73 but you expect more from a great course like Raven.

Thank you for the feedback and sorry to hear about your experience. We aerified the greens on July15th. We have alerts up for two weeks post aerification.

Thanks for the review, we hope to see you back at the Raven soon!
Good Course
I'd recommend this coarse, the only down side was that there was no beverage person on the coarse.
Sand Traps Need Work
For summer conditions, course was in generally good condition; however, all sand traps were either hard packed, no sand or throughly wet from sprinklers, all of which made it more difficult to escape in a controlled manner. Pace was 4:10 (average). Value was good. Greens needed another week or so to recover from earlier aeration; also ran a little slow (and bouncy on some long putts).

Thank you for the review and feedback. We did a full bunker renovation last year and have received excellent feedback.
Great course
Love playing this course in the summer at the lower rates. Staff is great and course is in good summer condition.

Thank you for the five star review.
