Starfire Golf Club - The King Course

Greens were receptive and rolled smooth. Course was in pretty good shape, a few wet spots in collection areas, a few dry patches elsewhere. Pace of play was slow on front 9 but ok overall. Good location and value

What a great value. I played the white tees and thought it was going to be so easy, but I made the right choice.

There was enough water, bunkers trees and hills to make this a really enjoyable outing.

Greens and fairways were in tip top shape.

Course layout was great

Tee boxes could use some work but still playable.

Pace of play was average

From the bag boys to the youmg lady in the shop to Starter Dick, all were friendly and welcoming. Course in pretty good shape. A few tees are spotty. Greens are good despite players not repairing ball marks. Good value. Did not see a ranger or cart girl though. Pace of play was great. 2.5 hrs for 18 holes.

Course is in very good condition. Good test of golf for average golfer.

Nice friendly, well maintained golf course in the heart of Scottsdale.

The pace of play was horrible took us 3 hours and barley got thru 9 holes, ranger didn’t say anything, was terrible, course was in great condition. Pace of play was terrible

The course was both manageable and challenging.

Staff were great.

The serving staff in the afternoon could use a bit of coaching on being a bit nicer….

The server in the morning was great!

The Marshall was top notch!!

The staff that loaded and unloaded our clubs were great too!

We will be back.

Late afternoon tee times are miserable here. We went to the 1st tee box for a 4:14 Friday afternoon start to find two (2!) full foursomes waiting on the tee plus some kids who said they had a pass that allowed them to play any time after 4. Any time? Just wedge in to a full schedule without a tee time? Never once saw a ranger so really no surprise this course is perpetually backed up. Slow play isn't uncommon here but this was the worst experience yet. Tee times are 8 minutes apart vs a more standard 9 or 10 minutes.

Additionally, I've rarely encountered greens with more giant divots. Gotta call in the pothole patch road crew prior to attempting a putt.

There was a five-some playing in front of us... As one of them stood on the back of the cart the first nine holes. I don't think the staff would have let him play if known. By the end of the third hole, the foursome in front of them were a complete hole ahead. We never saw a Marshal the entire 18 holes to notify him. The good news, after nine holes they stopped to use the facilities and we went around them and the womens foursome in front of us played normal pace of play no problems.

Starfire afternoon pricing reasonable and tee times are usually available as a solo player.

I had not played here in two years. Course was in good shape, Starter Dick was very friendly as was the golf shop girl. Only negative was I did not see a beverage cart lady but I played between 700-1030 am. I will return.
