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.

So good I had to play it twice!!!

Immaculate tee boxes, fairways and greens!!! I almost didn’t play this course due to other, not so good reviews. If you’re in Phoenix, AZ visiting or living your best life then this course is a must play. Did not disappoint! Hit it off with the guys I was paired with so well that we played the South and then the North course together. Time of my life!!! Great staff too. Played from the tips, good challenge, the course won, lol. Will play again!!

Great course but unfortunate circumstances.

I took my son to this course for his birthday. He had just drove in from CA on his way to Texas. The course was in beautiful condition, the day was perfect and the staff was amazing. However, there are members there who definitely feel entitled to set the pace of play. On the 9th whole I decided for the first time in my day to try to re-putt a downhill putt to which was met with heckling from the 3 members. They were telling us we were a hole behind and needed to speed it up. I told them I payed for the course not to be rushed by them. However, I added some expletives to assist with letting them know how much they upset's me.Not only did that result in an altercation with one of the members but I managed to upset my son understandable so. The manager came out and informed me that we were perfectly fine with speed of play. I told them this one person who I had the biggest issue with had also told me to go back to where I came from. Which is so arrogant that honestly it was then I wanted to do something I'm glad I didn't do. Would I play the course again absolutely. It was in the end unfortunate and looking back should have just smiled and got a whole lot slower. But I didn't.

Open Fairways and flat terrain

The coarse was well maintained but not too challenging. Good for beginners and amateurs.

A bit boring

While the course was in good condition and the greens were great, the layout was a bit monotonous.

The Course was in great condition.

The course was great. However, the par 4's seemed extra long compared to some courses. Especially at our age and playing the Gold T's.

It seems like the ladies T's could have been moved up some and the Green T's could have been the senior T's

Everything else was really great and next year we will look at your card when we are here.

Great course

Most everything about this course was awesome. What was not awesome is the green-side bunkers. Most everyone is overwatered and not broken up by raking and many had very little sand. I would think a course of this level would better take care of their bunkers. Additionally, the greens on the back nine were very beat up. Granted, we played at the end of the day but they were hacked up. But honestly, great course and I will be back!
