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.

Bring your water!

Pro shop team and the starters were awesome. However, on a heat advisory day, there was no water in the coolers every 4th hole. Maybe they filled them at the beginning of the day, buy they were all bone dry around 1pm. We only saw the beverage cart once, on the 10th hole. Luckily you pass by the club house after the 7th hole so you can buy some water, or whatever you like, after that. But, it was really rough for a few of the golfers to not have any water in the coolers. They should also throw some more shading for their employees out there because they were in really rough shape as we were pulling our carts in after our round.

Nice course! Not too difficult. I found the fairways to be very generous. Greens were good speed and fair. I’m a seven handicap and shot 78. Plenty of birdie chances and fun course.

Good challenge

Course was a good challenge and well maintained. Playing partners play there often so they knew where to hit and position. Green rolled true. Cart lady was exceptional and friendly. Pace of play was slow but playing partners made is fun day

Talking stick

Staff was horrible. Starter’s we’re down right rude. Water at the tee box was warm and tasted like plastic… not even close to enough beverage cart coverage… you can’t take your own cooler out ,,,,,, so they better start covering the course… it is Phoenix in summer time

They have been there long enough to know how to run a golf facility,

Or they just don’t care

Never go back and I’m live in Scottsdale all year around
