Talking Stick Golf Club - Piipaash Course
About
The Talking Stick Golf Club, designed by Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw, offers two uniquely different courses that each offer many options according to your playing skill. The Piipaash course (previously known as South at Talking Stick Golf Club), with its tree-lined fairways and raised greens defended at the sides offers a more straightforward style of play than the O'odham Course (formerly known as North at Talking Stick Golf Club).
A round of golf on the Piipaash Course at the Talking Stick Golf Club kicks off on a par-4 hole that measures 405 yards from the Black tees. Three long par-5 holes ensures that power golfers will get their kicks, with the fifth hole coming in at 516 yards, the 1fourth measuring 541 and the 16th playing to 548. The round of golf concludes on a relatively shorter par 4 that measures 323 yards.
After a round of golf on the North Course at the Talking Stick Golf Club, head back to the Wildhorse Grille for drinks and a bite to eat.

Eighteen green Photo submitted by Rosey461 on 06/16/2014
Nice wide fairways
Great course. Nice wide fairways. Pretty flat good for me who is a beginner golfer.
Golfers should be made aware of (cartpath only)
Golfers should be made aware of (cartpath only) restriction when they attempt to schedule their tee time, Not after they arrive and begin to tee off😳 this makes it really tough for the senior golfer.
Nice course, slow play, cart brokedown
Course was nice, didn’t say cart path only when booking, pace very slow and golf cart died twice and wasn’t even offered apology or partial refund
Good condition but pace a little sliw
Course was in good condition considering rain previous week . Pace of play was slower than usual with a group of eight in 2 groups ahead including some social golfers .
Ranger checked in on first few holes in front nine then never saw him
Greens in good condition but bunkers solid after rain
Practice Facility closed
Was never told practice area was closed. Never got a email that it would closed. I always get there 1 hour early to loosen up and hit some balls and putt to get speed of the greens. Was told tough luck go wait at the sandwich shop Won’t play again there Pete
Always a very good experience.
Course was in good condition even at the end of summer. Staff was very friendly in the shop and on the course.
Great time and great company
Second time playing this course and it didn't disappoint. It can be a little challenging from the gold and the greens were not easy to read. Played with another guy and eventually had two singles join us due to the slow play. For the most part the staff was great, though the starter was a little huffy and flustered. Pace of play was slower than usual for my liking, though a marshall was visible. All is all, a great time.
Summer golf
Great shape compared to many courses in the valley this time of year. One of my favorites year around
Eh
Hard to think this is ranked one of the best courses around. Uninspired layout that winds through parking lots and roads. Course at the time (Aug) in rough shape with somehow mud pits all over? Hopefully caught it at a tough time. If I had a choice I’d play either WeKoPa 99 times out of a hundred over this for the same price point.
Talking Stick - Piipaash Course
Always a Fun Round at Talking Stick - Piipaash Course!!! One of my favorite in the Valley!!!
Always On Time
My son and I played Piipash on 7.19. We are fans of the Coore - Crenshaw design team. They do a great job with the land and use the bunkers and a few waste areas to add character and decision making to each hole. Trusting your yardage is key at both courses due to the deceptive bunkering throughout.
The carts are equipped with GPS that provides yardage, to layup and carry yardages that allow you to plot your way around the course. The carts are top tier - however they don’t have bluetooth music. It was warm on our day of play and water was provided throughout the round. It was a Saturday and the course was packed - however we didn’t wait often but also did not stress ourselves with pace.
Love the course design and location. The greens were recently aerated so we caught it just as the AZ courses are going through this phase. I called to inquire about the other 18 hole course and they were extremely helpful in providing course conditions and it ultimately allowed us to select the course whose greens were in the best shape.
Would definitely recommend to a friend!
First time playing the course. It’s very forgiving and was in great shape during the summer. However if I’m paying for 18 holes at 4:30pm. I would like to be able to attempt to finish and not have a cart cut off at 7pm when there is still an hour of daylight left in summertime.
No notice of aerification nor curfews
I assumed I could play 18 at a 3:30 start since dark is not until 7:50, but they have an unannounced 7pm curfew, 4:30 pace of play, and did not advertise poor greens from aerification.
