Talking Stick Golf Club - O'odham Course

We’re 2 couples from New England and had a very enjoyable round. The ladies loved the wide fairways and roll distance gained on most holes. Greens were in excellent shape and rolled true. Only reasons for a 4 star rating were lack of variety of the course (mostly flat-ish) and a few backups on the par 3’s (one on the back nine had 3 groups on one hole—-not sure how that happened). The wildlife on the course was an added bonus! We’ll be back despite these minor concerns.

It was all about pace of play. Tee time was 1:40. The starter told us they were all about pace of play. He also said he doubted I would get the 18 holes in. I was joined by 3 others and we got 9 holes in by close 4:30. The others left after the 9. And I am standing at 10 thinking I am not going anywhere and decided to drive the cart around the back 9 just to see the course. Nice course. Value for money, not so, I am sure it would have been a 5.5 to 6 hour round if my schedule and the course clock would have allowed.

Course was in excellent condition and pace of play was perfect for a Sunday morning round. Finished right at 4 hours.

Great course and conditions. Round time 4 hours. Great staff. Very fair course in perfect condition. Just a little pricey for out of town guest.

My wife was a last minute scratch due to getting sick. The TS staff was great. The golf course was in super solid shape, yet the staff is why I recommend the course and why I’ll be back.

Course in good shape, greens were a little firm. My only complaint is they closed the range from 1pm to 3pm to do maintenance. They couldn't pick a worse time. I had a 1:45 tee time and got there just before 1pm and as I walked over, they closed it. I don't know why they can't close it at 3 or 4pm for the evening and do their maintenance, instead of doing it in prime time. Other than that, had a great time.

Pretty repetitive course. They shuffled our tee time around a bit, which made it tough to finish before last light, so keep an eye out for that if you are going to be right on time.

Descent desert track, course was in very good shape, the greens have a lot of grain, which I haven’t seen much of in the desert, nice change.

Range was beat tore up with no turf whatsoever Most boring layout I have ever played. Stay away. People were good.

Course was I. Good condition including the greens wish I would guess ran 10 - 11. Very wide fairways and pretty large greens make for a good statistic round of golf. Definitely resort type course. I think a bit pricey for what it is, but it is the week before the WM Tourney.

Greens were a little quick but other than that great

The talking stick facilities are decent. Not the best but not nearly the worst. The included range balls and massive practice green is a great warm up. Make sure to hit up the sandwich shop and grab a pastrami on the pretzel bun. The course has nice large fairways with plenty of wildlife. Eagles, roadrunners, coyotes and more. The greens were in fantastic shape, though hard, but fairly flat. All in all, very scorable and had a great time.
