Pinnacle at Troon North Golf Club

Fairways were the worst I have played in a long time! Large areas of bare spots with no grass. Supposedly from a rough winter and overseeding did not come in.

Greens were very playable and were the best portion of the golf course. Pace of play was terrible. Did not see the Course Marshall until the Back 9 after we were waiting approximately 10-15 minutes per hole. Beverage Cart gave last call with 12 holes still to play. Was expecting much more!

The good--Gorgeous setting!! Great layout with some very challenging shots! I could do without the mega-mansions all over the course, but they too were impressive! The greens were receptive, fast and rolled very nicely except for all the unrepaired ball marks. This was a 1:15 tee time, so the course had seen a fair amount of usage by then. The one bunker I was in had excellent sand. Lots of water coolers on the course. All the staff members were friendly and helpful.

The bad--To start, the range was pretty beaten up, and the golf balls looked like chew toys collected from the local humane society. Fairways were the worst I've played on in a long time--sparse grass, muddy, unfilled divots. I don't understand how Troon gets away with charging what they do with conditions like this. I found a seemingly great deal to play this renowned course ($43), but would not return at half that rate.

My wife and I played the Pinnacle course at Troon North today with two other male golfers. We played in a little over 4 hours, when considering that we didn’t know the course and the level of difficulty, was very good. When we checked in, the employee behind the counter indicated that because they are about to go through the over seeding process, the course was not in pristine condition and hence we received a 15% discount. The greens were perfect, the only weakness in the conditions was some bare spots in the fairways, which was easily resolved by moving you ball to a grassy area.

Their pro shop is fully stocked and our lunch after our round, including our Bloody Mary’s made for a perfect day.

Course has a great layout but lots of burned up grass in the fairway. Greens are in pretty good shape. The other negative for this is pace of play. Their standard pace is 4.5 hours, and our foursome was held up almost every hole today and we finished in about 4:50. Makes for a long round in 110 degree heat. We asked the Marshall midway through the round and he thought this pace was reasonable. Other than that, great course.

They told us in a email before we played about course conditions and it was a great help. The staff did whatever we needed before we went out. The course offered challenging tees for whatever handicap you were. The pace seemed a little slow but we were under 4 1/2 hours. One of the best things was having a ranger come out and offer cold wet towels, that were very much appreciated and a terrific gesture on the clubs part.

Only issue was some areas of bare ground on the course, not a lot but seems like I found most of them. Otherwise excellent course that very playable.

It is a really nice course with a nice layout. Some really nice views from the tee boxes. Wide fairways but if you venture into the tight naive areas consider it a lost ball. I played TPC Scottsdale on the same day and Troon North was a notch below.

Had so much fun. Unbelievable course and staff was the BEST EVER. Will come back for sure!!

I have been wanting to play troon for awhile now with all the great review about it. I was really disappointed in the course condition. We weren’t notified of the conditions until we were escorted out to hole one. He said the grass had burnt spots. That was an understatement. Missing grass patches throughout the whole courses fairways. The greens were in excellent condition, the course layout is nice. With all the hype and great reviews. This course fell well short of me paying $80 a round. I would save your money and play it when they get the course under control. Just played boulders course the week prior and it had a few bad spots for $80. Definitely was in a lot better condition. Very skeptical about the previous reviewers and how good the conditions were. This course was not in good condition overall.

Such an enjoyable golf course. Fairways were in great shape for the summer, greens were very firm and fast (which I personally prefer). Views were pretty good but the course had a really nice layout and offered a good challenge. Lots of wild animals running around; I even saw 3 deer on one hole! Definitely a course you must play if you are in the area.

very enjoyable in every way, would definitely play again. Pace was perfect, staff very friendly and fun factor was great at 6600 yards.

Excellent experience all around except for the pace of play, but that was because it was an outing. We only paid $65, so an excellent value at that price. Definitely hope to play again soon!

Fun course and I would say very challenging.

The greens had many ball marks. We were surprised for this caliber of a course.
