Scottsdale Country Club - The Championship Course

The condition of the course was below par due to extremely wet conditions as well as spotty patches of poor over seeding. The range was not opened prior to my tee time. Note I had the first tee time at 7:02am. The bunkers had a lot of standing water.

This course was way over priced. This course is in a group of courses that includes Coyote Lakes which was much better priced and better to play. The Starfire’s greens were not very good and the bunkers were terrible. I would play Coyote Lakes again but I would never play Starfire again.

My husband and I arrived early at the course and were able to tee off 40 minute before our TeeOff time. We did have a slow group in front of us but skipped ahead on 10 and finished the round in 3 hours and 40 minutes. Always some interesting holes and enjoy the course!

We knew that starting our game at 2PM would be a challenge to be done by the requested return time of 5:35pm sunset. However, the club put FIVE players in front of us that were not concerned about others and we had to wait on them constantly....annoying! So we paid for 18 holes but only played 14.

Recently played after fall aerating & as to be expected the greens were slow but in nice condition. Staff very courteous in moving up our tee times putting greens & range were closed in finishing Dallasaerating. Had a nice round and would play again earlier in season..

Aware of over seeding however the overall condition was disappointing, and level of amenities was poor.

Tried to play a round with a friend visiting from out of town. We are in our 60’s, not some punk kids. Instead, had a marshal follow us around continually telling us we were playing too slow even though there was absolutely no one in front of or behind us and we were on pace for a four hour round anyway. Honestly, I am going to pursue legal avenues to get my money back for a really bad way to conduct business by Starfire. SHAME ON YOU FOR HAVING BAD EMPLOYEES. DO NOT PLAY THIS COURSE. THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER GREAT COURSES IN THIS AREA THAT DON’T HARASS YOU FOR NO REASON.

Very good course with an excellent staff. Just reopened from overseeding so conditions were not perfect. Still a great day of golf.

For October overseeding season in Arizona, this was fantastic. All were friendly and it was in great shape

Incredible design where the number one hazard on the course is somebody's Traeger Grill or a Child's playset. Stur Fyer has developed a genome of crab grass so rare and exclusive, they seem to showcase it as the majority of the fairway.

The front desk guys treat this place like AuguSTARFIRE, they are doing you a favor by letting you play on the hallowed grounds, home of the 8-some bachelor party, of Stur Fyer.

This place exists to trick people from the Midwest into spending $320 on a round during WM Phoenix Open Week. Operation cheese curds and snowbirds

My favorite hole is on the closing stretch of the back nine, the one where you can bomb it over the houses and business along Shea. Gotten some insane kicks off that dudes roof. Good lies and angles out of their front yard, don't go too far right into 6 lanes of traffic.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The only disappointment was that they had the front 9 of the course was closed due to seeding. They had us play the executive course as the front 9 and then play the back nine of the Starfire course. We would have selected a different course to play if we had known that in advance.

That is not to say the executive course was not a fun little course but just not what we had anticipated to play.

We were a twosome behind an extremely slow foursome. They were even playing a best ball and still it was painful. The course had a couple of martials that were friendly but did not do much to correct the pace of play. Another couple drove past us and did not finish their round clearly frustrated with the slow play as well.
