Palm at McCormick Ranch Golf Club
About
McCormick Ranch Golf Club features two lush manicured year-round courses amid the lovely views of Scottsdale. Both the Palm and Pine golf courses' championship tees lay to over 7,000 yards, and there are also the options of men's, seniors' and ladies' tee sets to allow everyone a crack at the tests offered by these golf courses.
Golf Illustrated selected the ninth hole of the Palm Course at the McCormick Ranch Golf Club to be "One of the USA's Top 18 Water Holes." It's just one of 10 water holes on the golf course, which, as you might imagine, also features lots of big palms. In all, the golf course plays to over yards from the blue tees, including four par-5 holes that measure over 500 yards.
A round of golf on the Palm Course at the McCormick Ranch Golf Club kicks off on the par-4 first hole, which plays close to 400 yards from the blue tee and requires a drive right-center to ensure a short-iron second shot.

Palm Course - McCormick Ranch Photo submitted by tainge on 03/29/2013
Course was okay shape only issue was too long of a round over 5 hours.
Fun course
This was my first time playing here. It has a nice layout. Being a local AZ resident, I'll definitely be playing here again when the summer hits. Wish local all AZ courses gave resident rates.
Very Worn Track
Course and conditions are very worn and rough. Needs some heavy TLC. 5 hours and 20 minutes is at least an hour too long to play.
Good course in good condition
It is a fun and not too complicated course to play. Wide open fairways and quite a bit of water. Enjoyable.
Forgiving Fairways
We enjoyed the course. Friendly staff and a nice Pro Shop. The fairways are quite large so it was helpful when we sprayed our tee shots. There was quite a bit of water to stay away from. The course itself was pretty similar from 1-18. They have a nice outdoor patio for drinks and food afterwards. We had salads and they were delicious!
Past its prime
Really good 20 years ago. The course’s condition simply is not being taken care of in the last several years.
Golf Rates
I am sorry to say but since the Covid Plandemic Golf course rates have increased immensely. What is sad is that this will not help in growing the game and will also effect the retired generation living on a fixed incomes.
Palm course
The course is in great condition. Played it prior to over seeding so greens rolled well.
