Talking Stick Golf Club - O'odham Course
About
The Talking Stick Golf Club features two golf courses designed by the architecture team of Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw, who created distinct golf courses with enough choices to accommodate all levels of golfers. The golf club sits on the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community reservation, a spot that provides the serenity necessary to endure a testing day of golf.
"Talking Stick's O'odham (formerly known as North Course) course, with its broad, angular holes rewards thoughtful play through the rise of its many options according to one's level of skill. Its low-profile, slightly crowned greens and close-cropped approaches encourage running as well as aerial assaults." -- Bill Coore & Ben Crenshaw
The second hole is a par 5 that measures 552 yards from the Black tee and is one of two long holes, with the 17th being a par 5 that plays to 582 yards from the Black tees.
The 18th hole on the O'odham Course at the Talking Stick Golf Club is shorter, relatively speaking, a par 4 that measures 471 yards from the Black tees.

Golfer Reviews
Great Course, Great Staff
Superb customer service - I need lots of ice for my ice vest inserts. Filled my Yeti with ice/water before and ice at the turn.
Ranger and starter made sure I had water and very helpful. Cart people were super nice & accommodating
Worth the wait to play this gem
Have been to Phoenix numerous times over the years and have always wanted to play Talking Stick. Finally got to make it happen this week and boy was it worth the wait. The entire course was in phenomenal condition for the first week of September. To say that the fairways are forgiving is a major understatement. They are wide and welcoming for good tee shots and even the native areas are playable for the occasional wayward shot. The greens were soft and receptive and clearly rewarded good shots into the pins. Pays of play was perfect, our 3-some finished in just over 3 1/2 hours and were never really waiting too much on the 4-some in front of us. Cannot wait to get out to Phoenix to play here again.
Great Course
Great course layout, and Great shape.
Freindly and Professional Staff.
Great Time
II played the south course earlier in the summer and got the opportunity to play the north. It was amazing. The course, the people, just an overall wonderful experience. The course was amazing. Tee boxes perfect, fairways, remember it’s summer were awesome. The greens rolled great. Now come on people fix your divots!! Hope to be back before the fall prices kick in.
Nice course, fairways and greens in great condition
Played this course for the first time and wasn’t disappointed! Got a good hot deals price and will definitely be back!
Course is in great shape. however no sand in the sand traps. Staff was great with the water as it was very hot.
Good Summer Option
Staff was friendly. Alot of courses mid summer here dont have beverage carts because lack of play due to heat but there was one yesterday. Course was in really good shape for this time of year. Layout is decent but flat. Nice views throughout. No water hazards. Fairways are wide and forgiving and large greens soft enough to leave a divot. Great summer value.
Great track
Really enjoyed this track. Only 18 holes is open as they punch the other side and then eventually that’ll switch in the next week or so. Entire courses in great shape, fairways fringe apron and greens all solid and are held up real well typical resort course wide fairways plenty of bunkers on the backside but enough to fill challenge but not beat up after a nice round.
Service from the staff is great replenish water bottles on the greene. Everybody’s super friendly carts are in great shape practice range —all top-notch
good value for the money especially right now if you don’t mind the heat
Excellent Golf Experience
Designed for a fun and uplifting golf experience this course offers big everything! Big views and a huge practice area ! Monster fairways and large greens . Bunkers all around the course and some unique and especially large areas around the greens to work all types of nice shots if you miss those massive and well kept greens.
Such a beautiful place and design !
No way to leave that place mad at the game !
Those cute lil Pikachews will keep you smiling all day… they were ubiquitous! Just watch out for them with your golf cart !
Great Deal
Tee times were under 50 because of recent maintenance on the greens. Greens were better than expected and course was in great shape for this time of year.
