The Pine Course at the McCormick Ranch Golf Club offers mature pines, in an appropriate contrast to its sibling golf course, the Pine Course, and is also narrower than the other golf course. What they have in common include the facts that Desmond Muirhead designed both of them and they both date back to 1972; recent renovations have also given both golf courses new greens, sand traps and bridges.

The Pine at McCormick Ranch Golf Club measures 7,187 yards, kicking off on a 398-yard par 4 that requires tee shot toward the fairway's center, leaving golfers a mid- to short-iron from the green, which slopes narrowly. Things get long by the fourth hole, one of four par-5 holes that come in at over 500 yards; this one, for example, makes you place your drive well toward right-center if you want to shoot for it in two. Close out the round of golf on the 18th hole, another long one, at 517 yards from the blue tees, and a tight hole to drive that will, thankfully, provide your last test for the day.

It looks like a run down muni

The course is not up to Arizona standards

The greens are pockmarked The bunkers are ok the tee boxes are not level and they don’t have much grass in them. The fairways are nice

Bad conditions and 5 hour round

Course conditions were bad. Especially for the price. And pace of play was slowest of any course in Scottsdale area. Play somewhere else

Waste of $

I Have played all over the US and the Valley. $150 to play 18 is a joke here. Greens were the only saving grace. Tee boxes trashed. Fairways had puddles everywhere. Rough was full of mud. I think my ball had mub on it every single hole. Nothing special about this place whatsoever. Very very disappointed. Will not be back. SAVE YOUR $. Go play legacy or Raven if you’re going to drop this kind of $.

What Are you Thinking ?

I'M 11 HANDICAP Love a challenge but a fair challenge .Maturaty of your Golfers are visitors this time of the year most players havn't played in 5 months but you have greens running at # 12 speed you have holes over 400 yards that you have to hit on Islands surrounded with water .Bottom line this not the PGA Tour .SLOW DOWN THE GREEN GET MAJORITY OF PLAYERS TO MOVE UP AT LEAST TO BROWN TEES This would help for faster play and your golfer to enjoy there round even more.

Goat track

Tee boxes in terrible shape. The rough is a swamp. So many better options in this price range.

The new greens are definitely what makes it more challenging

Had not played the course sine the renovation of the greens

Also not since the big storm that took many trees out

Was a very pleasant round.

Place was fine… some staff was nice, not all. A Lot of money for the round.

Had top shelf service, great food and a better time at another course for much less. Just down the road. Maybe that was the difference. But it matters. Felt like a number. Not a valued guest.

Worn Out

Have played McCormick Ranch several times, but felt the course desperately needed some love. Tee boxes were beat up, greens weren’t smooth and the rough was … rough.
