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.

Par for Average

We played the Pine course, which was OK. For the money, I would recommend the Palm course. Pine is OK if you can get a deal below $100 during winter.

The Pine course was average challenge and scenery. The rough was completely dry/yellow, which seems to be standard for the courses I played this week. The greens were in good shape and fast.

The carts lack basic technology, and that was disappointing for the fees you pay.

Always a good round @ McCormick Ranch

I play 1-2 times a week in the PHX area. As prices in season go absolutely nuts this is one course in the middle/upper middle price range that does not disappoint this time of year. There are many courses around town at this price point which are in terrible condition. Always a good nice experience here (regardless of how well I play).

Bunkers are ok, fairways are 7/10, greens 8.5 /10.

Tee boxes 5/10.

Great day of golf

Had a wonderful time at McCormick’s with my sons. The course was challenging but not ridiculous. It was well maintained and the staff was very friendly. And, played in less than 4 hours! Would definitely play again!

Great hot deal

Probably wouldn't pay full price for this course. Just being in Scottsdale raises prices by $50 plus. Got a super hot deal that made it reasonable. Greens are difficult to read. Lots of water
