Whirlwind Golf Club - The Devil's Claw Course

Only issue was during frost delay went to coffee shop (bar) for a bite and something to drink. Sat at bar for 10 minutes and was ignored by two staff working. Seemed like they were only interested in the people they knew. Course staff were great.

This course is very enjoyable. We played Devils Claw, and as long as you can hit it straight and long there is no trouble. Fairways are very wide though so any shaped shots will stay in the fairways. Rough is just that pretty rough, not much grass they didn't overseed. So to get out you better sweep it or hit down very hard.

Had a great round on Devil's Claw. Challenging and fun. Would return for another round anytime.

Played for $74 at 10:00 Whirlwind Course, which is a significant discount from their usual green fees. I like how they will allow singles to book online. Course was in great shape. The greens were very firm, but putted very fast and true. They were large and had multiple tiers and undulations - extremely challenging! Fairways on the most part are fairly wide but hit off line and you'll find water or desert. Lots of tee boxes to choose from. It's a beautiful course with easy access...

Played Cattail from the Gold tees and what a great fun course! Excellent conditions even with the rain that came through a few days ago – course drained nicely for a desert track – got paired up with a great threesome which made it lots of fun. Very friendly staff, nice grass tee driving range and great practice facilities including bunkers and 2 practice greens. Nice addition to receive a free yardage book since I never played the course. All in all I would play this course again and again especially worth the price of $74 which is what I paid! I probably would not have paid over $150 (price on their website) for a round. Can’t wait to try Devil’s Claw next time I am in AZ. Sheraton resort was awesome as well including the shuttle to and from the course!

Devil's Claw....what an excellent golf experience. I will definitely play here again. I had no idea this course was here. Thank you Wildhorse Casino.

My playing partner and I enjoyed the layout, finding it challenging, but not a grind. I spent more time in the desert than I would have liked, but that certainly was not the fault of the course, just my swing.

Played the devil and it was awesome! Only complaint was pace of play. The marshal just acted as if it was normal instead of speeding things up.

A must play if visiting Phoenix area in the near future

I loved the course. Greens are fantastic. Fairway are lush. The only issue is the odor of the lake water. I don't know if the machinery that maintains them was not working properly, but there was a very strong urine smell.

This is a great course,lush fairways and nice fair greens. I'm coming back!

I have played this course many times over the years, however it has never been in worst shape. The sand traps are in very bad shape. My friends and I have complained but nothing is done. You would think between Troon and Gila River they could fix this. What a waste!!

Was a fun course, well maintained. Fair challenge. Fun. Good pace of play.

Our group appreciated excellent customer service! Rate for our round was errantly posted in our favor. We checked in and staff honored the rate we booked without question!

Our favorite place to play in South PHX. Whirlwind -Cattail is the easier of the two courses but very enjoyable. Desert style, but not "target" golf. Fast greens, in typical great "Troon" shape. Relatively flat course. Lots of sand, enough water and trees to make it a good test. Great practice area includes range, bunker/chipping and putting areas. Friendly staff through the pro-shop, beverage cart , starter and restaurant bar . This is a higher end Troon course so can be pricey, but if its on "hot deals" grab it!!!

Facilities are always superb for the practice before the round. Course is in excellent shape.

Have fun and stay away from the bunkers that can come in to play on every hole. Greens were in excellent condition.

Excellent condition, outstanding practice facilities, great greens, a pleasure to play. Make sure you consult the "players book" they give you to make yourself aware of where the water and other hazards come into play. The staff was great and the food in the restaurant is delicious.

Played Devils claw, it is a great course, little nicer then Cattail but I like that one fine too. Pace was perfect, I enjoyed every part of playing here and would return in a heartbeat.

Whirlwind - Devils claw is a challanging desert course that plays fair. Fairways are wide and most fairways are flat / comfortable. Sand traps are challanging to get out of. Greens are in great shape and roll true. Green Breaks are challanging to read and putted balls don't jump, bounce, etc.
From Par 3 to Par 5's the course is designed and maintained to be challanging and fun.
