KS Duffer in AZ
Will play again in future. Do not be fooled by Google maps satellite imagery Fairways lush and greens top notch. Shout out to Rusty grabbing me at car straight to tee box, arrived at tee time due to 20 minute traffic delay. Course is forgiving in fairways but greens will push you into many three putts or worse.
Great value for the money
Good layout and pace of play was ideal. Staff was great. Will definitely play here again.
Nice but slow.
Course was in good shape and good to play, but pace of play is a bit slow at just under 5 hours.
Don’t play here
Played this morning, played behind a 5 some. Note we played as a 3 some and there was (2)2 some behind us. They never once offered to let us through, we waited on every hole, every shot along with the two groups behind us. Drove their carts on the front or side of the greens with no care in the world, hit extra practice putts after on every green etc. I Complained to staff and they “well he’s the owner” no respect for the people who pay his bills apparently. Cart girl was also extremely rude. Terrible place to play golf. Don’t go there.
Desert Gem
A trip to the Waste Management allowed my buddies and I to try this course out. We stayed nearby at AK-Chin, so it didn't take long to get here. Lunch was ample and good value. Practice areas were great. The course layout was challenging but fun. Greens rolled true and were in excellent shape.
Better than expected
Greens were perfect. Fairways were nice but a little dry. Rough was mostly dormant and the edges were a bit rough. Sand traps were mostly good, a few were thin.
It was better condition than last year.
Best Course for the Money in the Valley
Greens were pure and fairways were lush. Course keeps getting better every year. Brian was super helpful booking our times, and the lady at the counter yesterday was delightful. Food following the round was so so but overall a great day.
TO THE DUKE!
My favorite course in Arizona. Unfortunately, it is still too expensive to play there very often.
