Greens are Recovering Nicely

It had been a few months since I played here and the greens have improved dramatically. Looking forward to many more rounds in the future.

Mixture of fair and good

The first nine holes and the 18th were very good condition. The course layout and bunker placement was challenging and fair. As most of the courses i played this week water would be very beneficial given the dry conditions. Overall the discounted greens fees because of two temporary greens were a big plus. This course has great potential.

Nice track

I don’t know why golfers have negative comments. From the tee box to greens the course was in good shape. Temporary greens were just that temporary and did not affect playability of this course. The only issue was why golf path only on 1 and 18? Price was great. Will play again.

Great value, friendly staff

This course in Ahwatukee was purchased by Troon a couple years ago and the improvements have been underway since. Right now, 15 of 18 holes are playable tee box to green, 3 holes have temp greens on the back nine. The course is in good shape overall. Troon will continue to wok on the greens and make improvements overall. Great value currently and the staff are excellent.

Real gem even w/2 temp greens

Course is obviously going through some recovery. 2 temp greens, which you're aware of going in. Some dry high spot but overall, great layout, fin Course. Totally worth it.

Great Course For The Money

Great course for the money. A lot of the reviews were about the greens but there are two temp greens and a couple that weren't perfect but other than that, the course ... and greens were in great condition.

Don't let the $69 dissuade you from going, actually the opposite, take advantage of the great deal.

The only complaint is that their credit card machines were down so we had to fill out a piece of paper with our CC information for them to charge us later. Turns out that one of the guys in our group got there before they set this up this method of charging us so they charged me for two players even though I never authorized it. I could have easily charged it back with my CC company but I let the guy know and he reimbursed me.

Amazing course!

Even for it being heavily discounted for the course not meeting their standard, it was in excellent condition. 12 & 13 had temporary greens which was noted beforehand so no gripes here. The food was great, and the staff truly made the course enjoyable and an easy option for recommendations from now on.

Nice, challenging course

Foothills is a good course. There were two holes (12 and 13) with temporary greens, but overall, the course is in better condition than 4-6 months ago.

Best place

Ok if you take out the holes that are under repair. This is a great course. The staff is the friendliest in the valley. Also they have the best breakfast burrito. I would getting one from the snack shop which is located by the starter.. food at the restaurant was pretty good. Overall this is the best run golf course in the phoenix area. You won’t be disappointed

Very good

I’m from New Orleans and this was the best course I’ve played at even though it’s one of the cheaper places around it still trumps any place I’ve played at back home by a mile. The fairways and greens were great and challenging and the scenery is beautiful. The staff was great too I wish we had courses like this back home. They had a couple temporary greens which were t great and small but I mean honestly it’s not a huge deal bc the other 16 holes were great, if you just get the ball near the temp greens then just give your self a pat on the holes and move on it’s nothing to complain about when the rest of the course is perfect and the views are good
