Talking Stick Golf Club - O'odham Course

The course was in good shape considering it was 105 degrees out. The cart staff was really friendly and the starter got me going (a single) when there was a gap in play before some bigger groups went off. The beverage cart came around several times during the round to make sure all was well and the other golfers on the course seemed to understand that it was hot and kept play moving very quickly. I finished my round in 2.5 hours. Now realize it was the middle of the summer in Phoenix, super hot, and by myself, but you can get around this track pretty easily. The layout was really nice with no major overlap between holes. Some of the fairways are HUGE and didn't have a hard time finding even mis-hit shots. That sped up the round for sure. Overall had great afternoon of golf in the heat and would come back again.

The weather was hot, but the course was great and because of the heat, the pace of play was awesome! This course has some really good challenges and a variety of holes. The pin placements were tough on some holes, but overall, very nice course and fair. When I play it again, I will know better where to hit the ball to keep it in play.

The course its self was pretty good even though the greens were aired one week before. However, the pace of play was painfully slow. It took my group about 4 and half hours to finish simply because we were waiting for the groups in front of us on every shot for the full 18. We did not see a single ranger on the course the entire time and the staff in the clubhouse actually double charged us on the payment when their computers went down.

The yardage makers were not very viewable. It was hard to get yardages to the pin with the second shot.

Great course, well maintained. Only complaint today was super slow play.

It has been years since I played the North Course. What a treat. It was in excellent shape! We finished our round in just over 4 hours. I took a client and he thoroughly enjoyed it. All of your staff members were very pleasant.

Talking Stick playing conditions always live up to the Troon standard for golf. The North course has a bit more of a "desert" feel to it than it's sister South course. Solid layout, with a good mix of risk/ reward, easy and bombers holes. You can't go wrong playing Troon.....

The North coarse was in ideal conditions for summer. Good value this time of year.

Played on July afternoon and got lucky with cloud cover. Course was in excellent shape, played in 3 1/2 hours. Ranger came around with free water and Gatorade, Nice!

The only reason I gave Talking stick one star for pace of play is because I can't figure out how to give them negative stars on this application. I work in the golf business and play a lot. I've never seen a course send out so many twosomes without pairing anyone up. There was no ranger and didn't have any staff that was remotely friendly besides the beverage girl. This course is boring and easy. Do not waist your time or your money on this course.

Overall a good course but played hard. Fairways & greens were very hard. No ball marks on the greens which showed the hardness of the greens. Fairways cut too thin which made it hard to pick the ball off the fairway. But very open & forgiving. Very flat course.

Super slow greens. A good challenge with some tough driving holes. Bring your driver to the green.

The chicken wrap was really delicious. Very impressed with the course conditions. The only change I would make is to add a little more speed to the greens.

When you have to wait at every hole the round has no rhythm and the price you pay is no longer a value.

The north course which we played is very fair and playable. Greens were slower then expected but putts ran well.
Beverage cart discontinued service just after 4pm which was weird.
Would recommend to play if your in town

Almost stopped playing due to the lightning. I was glad we stayed,it sprinkled on us 4 or 5 times. I thought the course was in great shape. Thanks

Great price, course was in great shape. Worth the money, would recommend.

Both of the Talking Stick Golf courses are beautiful and always fun to play...BUT, i played there about 4 times between march and June and the greens were always super slow and not really exciting to putt on.
Also bunkers need work...rock hard and no sand at all.
Still a nice course that I can recommend

Great Practice Tee. The greens were great. The starters are a little confusing. Overall a great course.

Beautiful course with lots of wildlife. I seen coyotes, bobcats, road runners and lots of prairie dogs. I would definitely play here again.
