Talking Stick Golf Club - O'odham Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

Beautiful course
Beautiful course
No indoor washrooms and restaurant open yet due to renovations. Hopefully next time
A good time had, however...
The staff was friendly and the course conditions were very good. However, I am disappointed that I had to pay a considerable amount of money for my son and me in advance, only to find out during the check-in process that there was construction going on at the clubhouse and bathrooms. If I had known this beforehand, I would not have booked at this time.
Well managed and great condition
Club house going through extensive remodeling but course in great shape. I know pace a play hard to predict, but p,aged in a little over 4 hours.
Underwhelmed!!
Not impressed with the course friendliness. Fairways and greens great condition but wouldn’t play again due to staff rudeness. Starter not helpful at all. No idea of flag position. Underwhelmed!!
Talking Stick is Recommended
The Talking Stick Courses are fabulous. I highly recommend them both. I typically play over 150 rounds a year, so I obviously play a lot of courses.
The course is challenging with some extra room in the fairways and tough undulating greens. The course layout can be reasonably be seen and understood before your shot rather than afterward. I hate ah ha moments after the shot and driving up to my ball to see hidden features that I wish I knew about before my shot.
Wide open fairway and peaceful course
I was enjoyed very much.
Golf course is well maintained and so beautiful place to play golf. Staffs are very friendly too.
Nice course with poor customer service
The starter was not helpful at all. No instruction what so ever on pin placement or facilities. We called into the clubhouse during our round and were told there were no restrooms on the course. Course was lovely but would not play again due to customer service.
Lower rating on off course amenities due to construction and improvements but should be great when completed.
