Course Highlights
Troon North consistently impresses with flawless greens, well-maintained fairways, and a challenging desert layout framed by stunning Arizona scenery. Attentive staff and strong overall value make this one of Phoenix's top public course experiences.

Pinnacle at Troon North represents a stunning, challenging golf experience blended into the high Desert's natural beauty with steep arroyos, natural washes and forests of saguaros and desert foliage. Portions of some fairways are hidden behind boulders and hills. Huge greens surrounded by large bunkers and sloping terrain challenge golfers on every approach shot.

A round of golf on the Pinnacle Course at the Troon North Golf Club kicks off on a par-4 hole that measures 392 yards from the Black tees. Things get crazy long on the 16th hole, a par 5 that plays to 609 yards from the Black tees. By that measure, the 18th hole will be a cakewalk, at par-4 and just 447 yards from the Black tee to the clubhouse.

After finishing the Pinnacle Course at Troon North Golf Club, head to the Grille, which offers a view of others trying to complete the course you've conquered, as well as the desert.

You'll be glad you played

Played Monument at twilight and almost no one on the course. The course is in fantastic condition, however one of the staff indicated it will be closed a few weeks for maintenance.

No doubt, it's an expensive day, but the course layout and condition are worth it. Staff are really good and clubhouse is also good.. locker room, pro shop, restaurant. I recommend playing a little later in the day so you're not rushed.

One disappointment was that the range closes at noon on Mondays and at 3pm other days.

I rated some amenities as good (not excellent) because if I rated higher, the review my not seem legit.

Enjoy!

Troon North (Both Courses)

The staff was very professional had the start down clock work. We played both courses. Courses challenging but fair. The courses were both in excellent condition. The greens were excellent and very consistent hole to hole.

Pace of play is a bit slow so plan on 4.5 hours..which is the designated “pace of play”. We played Monument course in under 3.5 hours as the third tee time in the AM as a twosome as one group allowed us to play thru but the first group did not.

I would definitely play both courses again!!

I am not sure what Troon golf is supposed to be but for me it was an overpriced golf club with an attitude.

Challenging and in great shape

My only down critique of this course was the price. Had to pay well over double what I think a round should cost. I realize it was during the WM Open but no need to gouge tourist. Will likely not return for that reason. Course was in fantastic shape. Pace of play was calm not pressured to go faster. Stunning location/homes/views.

No Range on Monday.

Rule 24-8, if the range is closed you get a free mulligan off every tee on the front nine.

Seriously, how can you have the range closed on one of the busiest days of the year. And not let anyone know before they book as you would if the course was just punched?

Don't Do It

If you like paying a fortune for golf, enjoy waiting every shot and playing in 5+ hours, these are the courses for you. The course layouts are great, but wouldn't recommend for 15+ handicappers. Sadly, Troon mgmt packs the tee sheets which makes the experience unbearable. The privileged hacks who play these courses never fix their ballmarks so it's like putting on the moon. Was the exact same situation when I played last year. Fool me twice, shame on me. I won't be back.

Too expensive for 15 holes

We had a 2:10 tee time - and there were a number of people who teed off after us. We were only able to play 15 holes before it was too dark (and too cold) to continue play. At $250/round apiece, this was not a very good value!

Bad Greens

Overall, great fairways, rough, and course layout. Staff was awesome. Greens we’re atrocious. The amount of damage from not fixing divots was the worst I’ve ever seen. Couldn’t get a putt to roll straight to save my life.
