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 layout
Very friendly layout, good condition, played 18 @ 8:20 am in 4 hours 25 minutes.
NIce course - Pretty forgiving
First time playing this course, no water on the course which made it pretty forgiving in terms of errant shots, Nice tee box layouts allow varying levels of ability/distances to the holes. Can move back on boxes to make the course more challenging or forward to make some of the holes more playable, particularly a couple of the Par 3 holes.
Mr . Bhakta
It was great playing this course . I would like to come back play this again .
Easy course
They take very good care of this course. It’s a resort course and all fairways are absolutely huge. Tee boxes are ok, which means much better than most. We played the Grand the other day and their tee boxes are horrible. Not one level and very little grass. One had no grass at all. Talking Stick South is very flat, so good if you want to walk. You almost can’t lose a ball, so pace of play is very good. $70 - $80 would be a fair price, but like other courses, the hey are taking advantage of the current boon of new golfers. They can get it, so they do.
Talking about Talking Stick
Booked a Saturday round at Talking Stick on Golf Now website...hadn’t played this particular course previously...there are two courses here...the range was packed...the balls are included with your round...the rangers and starters are very friendly...the course is in great shape especially the tees and greens...had a great time ...we’ll be back!
Slow Slow Slow
Took 5.5 hours to play 18. While the course and staff were great, unless they get the pace under control I would avoid.
Resort was well-staffed with very courteous people with excellents golf courses!
Very slow - stopped at 9-holes.
No GPS on carts
No windshield on. one cart
No pencils for scorecard
No ball washers
Driving range and course overloaded
Worth a visit
The course was in great shape and worth the visit. The only drawback was the length of time it took to play. Too many golfers were crammed on the course. It i read more reviews with the same issue I'd be concerned.
No one cared that we paid this much to play
Don’t expect a welcome mat. From no parking in the lot to then being scolded we were late to only find out they wanted us to tee off 10 minutes early. Of course in the meantime we lost our food and beverage privilege and we are writing this on the six hole as we wait 10 minutes from the group ahead of us and contemplating whether we were gonna leave the course altogether and never come back.
Definitely expect a municipal type service. I play 4 to 5 days a week and this is the poorest value I’ve had in the last two years. So much for being a hotel guest.
