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
Staff friendly, course playable with wide fairways
Intersting course, Greens and sand traps tough, fairways very wide. Stark scrub land juxtaposed on green golf course very lovely. Woman friendly. Good pro shop
Great Course
Most other courses in the area tend to slack on the maintenance in the summertime, but Talking Stick North was in great condition given that it was summertime.
Good Warm-up Track
Course is fairly wide open. No water on the North Course. Greens were slick and pins were placed in very tricky spots. Went off as a two ball (first off) - played in just about 3 hours. We paid a discounted rate which made it well worth the money esp. that time of year.
Nice Course but wouldn't rush back to play
Played the North Course yesterday and other than the over seeding still visible, the course was in nice shape. The course isn't overly difficult with generous fairways and large greens. My buddy and I have played many different courses and felt for $80 it was ok and we wouldn't be interested at regular price.
Wide fairways, good pace of play, and very good condition.
Enjoyed this course, and look forward to playing the companion South course. 'Cartpath only', due to overseeding, meant many long walks across the fairways, but the excellent condition of the fairways was a big plus. Greens were slowish, and there was plenty of sand in the bunkers.
dog track
Played the north course for the first time and will not play it again. What a waste of space . Can you make a flatter course that all the holes look and play identical ? I hear the south course has a better layout but im.not going back to see if thats true,way to many course around the valley with the same cost.
disapointing
I was extreamly disapointed with talking stick north course. after being closed all summer to re-do their greens I found them to be in an unnacceptable condition. Half the flag sticks could not be stood upright, and all the greens were covered with worm tailings.
