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.

Great course!

In excellent shape. Staff (starter) super friendly and helpful (ie we were a twosome and he got the group in front of us to let us play through). Free water ice and towels. Very flat course, fairways are generous, not hard to find ball if go in desert.

Hole in 1

I’ll never ever forget my round in the Talking Stick South Course on July 11th as I scored my first ever hole in 1 in hole #9, a 164 yards Par 3!

What else can I say about this GC? It was in excellent condition and the staff and Rangers were so friendly. Overall an unforgettable round.

Boys Golf trip

The staff from the time you drop your bags until they load you up when the round is over was nothing less than exceptional. During the round the guy (sorry I didn’t catch his name) routinely stopped by to make sure we always had water and ice. Visiting from Texas, we have heat, but yeah, this is different. Definitely would 100% recommend and will golf here again!

Always green

I brought a few friends from out of town to play the course. The pacer play was great. The grass was green and the greens were rolling pretty good for a summertime course condition. I would have to rated it pretty high still a little pricey for the summer though..

Great Day

I had a great experience here from check in to the range and the starter John. Played on a morning following an overnight storm that dumped a fair amount of rain. The course was still in great condition. Greens of course were slower but fair, standing water around the course from rain but it never affected my round. Course was not super busy so I played a round well under 4 hrs.

I went out to enjoy a leisure day of golf and my expectations were met. Very forgiving fairways and layout. If you want a more challenging track, other courses in the area may give more of an AZ desert layout with elevation change etc. But for what I wanted, it played perfect. I’ll play here again.

Terrific layout, poor pacing.

I was a big fan of the course conditions, layout, and views for the price. My only complaint is that the marshall placed us in the middle of two groups playing in a walking tournament. The marshall was not very friendly, and was rushing us to tee off despite the group in front of us being in the fairway still. We saw the marshall pass by us 5 times to ensure we were keeping pace through the first 9 holes, but we did not see him at all on the back 9. Overall, I really enjoyed the course and would play here again.
