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.

Rating 73.2

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.

Great layout!

Very nice course in excellent condition! It's a players course and worthy of the best shot makers ability!

It's target golf at its best. You just have to hit the fairways and greens.

Monument course

Awesome course, but wouldn't pay more than $225. Well worth it if you can get any deal. Make sure you bring your camera for the back 9! (But please.. Please don't hold up play..)

An Ideal Way to Spend Thanksgiving

My review will only be positive as I am sure I picked THE BEST DAY to play. The setting was just surreal playing alone and barely anyone on the course. I had to ask myself why any woman would want to be at a spa than at this course surrounded by serenity..this day was something to be very thankful. Bobcats were an added bonus!

Great track

It is the best, or close to the best course I have played in AZ. Very expensive, but probably worth it to play at least once. Very prestigious course. Incredible club house and locker room. Nice practice facility. Course is beautifully designed. It is target golf - keep the ball straight!

Too expensive

The course is totally surrounded by properties which are hiding the views of the desert. The course is OK although the greens were not that great, they looked like patchworks and had different speeds from one to another. All in all too expensive for a good course, nothing else.

Beautiful course, slow play

They let a group tournament go out and did not monitor. Got to be a 15 minute wait at tee for the last 4 holes on front 9 so went and played the front 9 on Monument instead.

Everything You'll Ever Want...and More!

Nothing about Troon North disappoints. From the minute you hit the parking lot and drop your clubs to the minute you pay for your 19th hole drinks or spend money in the pro shop, you're expectations are exceeded. The golf in the middle of all of that is simply spectacular. We played the Pinnacle course as it had come out of overseeding a couple of weeks prior to Monument and the course was already in great shape, but will only continue to get better. A couple of the greens looked like they had seen some traffic, but overall they were running 10+ and rolled true. The entire staff was as friendly as could be and it was obvious they all truly enjoyed being there as well. I always enjoy my rounds here and cannot wait to get back for more this winter.

One of the best golf courses in Phoenix area

I have 2 issues with that day we played: they put us 15 min after shot gun and no one told me when I scheduled; and players not fixing they ball marks despite of course providing free tools! Players, have some respect- do not be just a tourists!
We had over 5 hours round of golf! Great course, great views, great weather, great and friendly stuff.

Fantastic Course

This is an exceptional course. Everything about this experience was first rate. The course design and layout are second to none; the use of the desert has never been better. Magnificent rock features were used on several holes while the foothill terrain was beautifully used on others. Every hole had its own unique personality such that it has you looking forward to the surprise you will find at the next hole and the next. The fairways were immaculate and the greens were nearly perfect. But for other golfers not repairing ball marks as they should, there would be nothing to fault about the greens. The greens were fast, but consistently so. The pace was predictable and manageable. I am looking forward to returning to this course some day soon.

Awesome Setting

Troon North is in an awesome, high desert, natural setting. Although enjoyable, I found the the course a bit much on a breezy day for my high handicap game, with the front 9 friendlier than the back 9. Physically the course was in superb condition, although "cart path only" restrictions due to overseeding made for much back-and-forth walking. My only criticism is there were too many unrepaired, or poorly repaired ball marks on the greens for such a high value venue.
Staff was very friendly and helpful, and pace of play was comfortable.

great time at troon!

Would of given 5 stars across the board except it was still cp only,not that it took away from the golfing experience. Greens are the best I've putted on in Az without a doubt. Carts have GPS which is nice. Beverage cart girl Josie was awesome and makes a mean bloody Mary! Top professional staff from the bag drop to the pick up ! Looking forward to playing the Pinnacle course next time.

Great golf course!!

This was my first time playing here. It was a bit of a drive from the hotel but the TCP course was closed down for seeding. Glad I tried this course, beautiful views and the course was in great shape. I am a 10 handicap so I knew this was going to be a hard course. Didn't us driver much, to stay out of trouble and had a great time. Hard course but fair layout. It seemed like you had 20 yards around the greens to work with if you missed. I'll definitely play again.

OMG!!

I have played the Monument course before This was my first time at the Pinnacle The course was in truly amazing condition. Everything was perfect the pace of paly was fair why would anyone want to rush on this course teed off at 2 pm and came of at 6.25pm . The scenery the verdant green of the course made for a magical day. I played form the silver tees Slope 130 I am a 9/10 hcp. I did not have a iffy lie all day! This is a challenging course I played four other courses in the past week. This was the toughest! a slope of 130 was at the top of my capability. Use this as your guide rather than the colour of the tees as your tee markers . Played as well as I could and came in with a 77. par71/72.
Lots of wildlife including a family of Haveline on 15 /16. really good meal of North Scottsdale fish fry was superb. Thanks I will be back!!!The course director came out and chatted to us on the back nine. This was nice touch .

Fantastic views from every tee

What a great layout and a true test of golf, bad timing on my side as the course had just been overseeded so it was cart path only, but that didn't stop the enjoyment, must re-visit
