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.

Too Late a Start

Was not able to finish due to darkness. It backed up at the back nine. The course is not for beginners. Playing late in the day caused the setting sun directly in the direction of the green. Difficult to follow, much less see the ball. This is where you pick up your ball and move on. If others would do the same, back ups would not be a problem. Otherwise it was an enjoyable round playing with some local and out of town people.

call ahead if you want to practice

Apparently, they close their driving range every Mon and Thu afternoon at 1 pm. Never heard of such a thing at a course. I went early to practice, but ended up sitting around for 90 minutes. Had to ride with a guy who smoked constantly. Really unpleasant.

1st time here - loved it.

1st time here.

Only got to play because of golf now twi light special.

I so wish I could afford to play here all the time but that is not happening.

Driving range is nice.

Putting green is nice.

Course is gorgeous.

Some might say it is boring and holes all look alike though.

Fairways are huge - you can scatter it everywhere.

I do wish the carts had gps though - can’t have everything,

Just a fluke that no one in our group had a gps unit.

I highly recommend this place - bring your girlfriend Visa if you are paying full price though.
