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.

Piipash

Course was good, a little unremarkable though. Nothing super memorable about the layout. This was our first time playing in AZ, and we found the greens a little tricky but fun. Staff was friendly and accommodating, food was outstanding although we were told the restaurant was going to be run out of food trucks very soon. They are starting what appears to be a pretty big remodel project. We had a great time and no real complaints.

Great desert course

Great desert course which offers interesting views on the valley mountains. Although we played the other course this was the first time on the Piipaash and I would play it again. Fairways and greens were at their best. The staff was particularly helpful...and I would specially thank Rod.

Scottsdale - Talking Stick

The grass was green and in reasonable condition but course layout was not that interesting - grass and desert. The desert had scrub type bushes but little landscaping and other than the mountains in the background, we did not feel the course was that pretty or interesting. Restaurant also closed at 5pm so no opportunity to eat there after the round.

A Fun Golf Course

Course was in great shape, greens ran nicely. Pace of play was outstanding. Course is flat, easily walkable.

Wild horses beside the course was interesting.

Would play again and recommend to a friend.

Nice Course

Nice course with generous landing areas and a few holes where you have decisions to make off the the tee. Greens and fairways were in good condition, carrt path only the day I played but apparently they are a week from going back to scatter. I got a good deal so the value for me was quite good…paid just over 100.00.

Enjoyable Round

Played Piipaash (Sourh) Tuesday and carts were allowed. Course is in great shape after overseeding. Golfshop staff could have mentioned 20+ min frost delay but were silent. Starter was great in pairing golfers together. We were able to finish round before sundown. Love playing at Talking Stick!!
