Papago Golf Club

Superb setting, fast, challenging greens, and a nice layout. Far superior to pricier courses like Talking Stick.

very nice views. long course from the tips, bring your power! greens in great shape!

This is a very strong challenge. Don't be fooled by several short par 4. The par 3 are all over 200 yds except for one. Virtually all greens are elevated making bounce or run in shots difficult. Playing surfaces are well maintained Deep faced bunkers make getting out a challenge. Played it from the white tees and it was still very difficult. It you are long and like evelated greens you will like this course. Staff was fantastic!

While holes were long, fairways were forgiving. Course was in great shape. Bunkers are deep and sand is hard, making play more difficult. Greens rolled true and were as greens should be.
A great outing. I will choose to play there again.

If you complain about this course then you are a golf snob. For municipal course, it is excellent. Many reviews are complaining about poor course markings, the clubhouse, in the cart paths. I went there to play golf in that is what I did. I didn't go to have a fancy meal in a club house and even the simplest mind could follow the markings on the course to each hole. If you are visiting Phoenix save the money and play here. Also, there are 0 houses around this course. It is not jammed into a resort community as an afterthought

Played on a Wednesday and in 3 1/2 hours!
Played from forward tees so it was a bit easier but still
a great challenge as always at Papago
Unfortunately, to me, they're taking out even more of the old tree however, hate to see them go.

Lots of big old trees came down last month. Probably a good thing as most were not in play and opens up the views. Fairways and greens are in excellent shape. Played in just under 3 hours, 18 holes. Nice

Very nice course. A bit challenging with narrow fairways and bunkers around the greens. Staff was great. Nice views and great staff but overall a bit disappointed comparing Papago compared to other courses.

I've been playing Papago golf course for many years and find it in as good a shape as I can ever remember. I only wish I could say the same for my golf game.

I continue to be amazed at how well Papago is maintained with excellent fairways quick greens and no burnt spots. Although there were a good number of trees down from recent storms, the course itself is in great condition for this time of year. Stay out of the rough, the Bermuda will suck up your ball and wrap up your club. Looking forward to a club house!

Any time I want to see where the state of my game is, I go to Papago. It's a wonderful course and I look forward to playing there again as soon as possible.

pace of play was spot on, greens in darn good shape seeing they Aerated 1 week ago fairways tight and clean
still waiting in the construction of a club house...
ultimately the main thing thing is
ANOTHER GREAT DAY OF GOLF IN AZ!!

One of the best layouts in the valley. Every hole is challenging and the course is never monotonous. Great views of Papago Buttes and it does not snake through condos or McMansions. Course conditions were very good and pace of play was under 4 hours on a Friday morning.

Lacks amenities and services of the resort courses but the layout makes up for the lack of someone to carry your clubs 10 feet or wipe them with a damp towel.

I played this course after work in the afternoon, hardly anyone on the course. The fairways were in the best shape I have seen them in the summer, the greens were in really good shape and played true.

Good layout, everything is out in front of you. Tough par threes

This is a challenging course for long hitters when played from the blues or blacks. Greens were in good condition for late July in PHX and a GolfNow hot deal of $10 made this a great deal for a weekday afternoon round. Fairway bunkers on the back nine are a reachable hazard and will make for some long approach shots if you end up in them off the tee.

The course was nice but the staff was very unfriendly.

Nice course; like the dog leg layout; very few straight holes. Several LONG par 3's. First time out, I tried to out muscle the course and paid. Will play it a smarter next time out.

ASU and the city need to upgrade the pro shop/clubhouse facilities soon. Trailer park setting not very inviting.

Practice range & greens very nice and roomy.

The bag "boys" were very accommodating as were the clubhouse staff & starter; very nice folks!

Looking forward to playing it again.

Great day to play golf. Perfect weather, good breeze. Course in pretty good condition. Greens were bumpy from overseed and didn't hold. Might wait a week before returning.

For being so hot in Arizona in the summer, Papago was well maintained. Greens a little bumpy as it appears they were aerated a few weeks ago. Greens were fast. Fairways were in great shape and the practice facilities were very good as well.
