Play it again

Must play course, pace of play was great, snowbirds have left the valley and now it’s time to play quick golf. Greens were running true with good speed. Must play and I will play it again this summer. Glad they flipped front and back nines, nice to finish coming into clubhouse

Shotgun Start Interruped Round

Played front nine with no delays. One hole was flooded, which the pro shop said nothing about. At the turn there were about 60 golfers getting on the course for a shotgun start. Needless to say the course was plugged. Turned around and went in and was told by the pro shop staff and later the manager in an email, that that’s the way the course operates. They look after the members of the Resort first. All I wanted to know was why we weren’t told upon signing in. The manager said it was a private course but did allow the public to golf. Never will I golf this course or recommend it to any of my friends.

Shadow Hills South

Rode the Blues (6467/71.5/130) on a GN "Hot Deal" with Hillary in 3.5H. The weather was clear, breezy and in the mid 90's. First time I had played here in almost 5 years. Most holes are lined on both sides with nice track homes. Tight in places layout that offers a good variety of holes. More than average amount of sand and water features adds to the difficulty. The tees were excellent, lush and nicely maintained. The fairways were mostly lush and many were near immaculate. A few were thinner and showing signs of the recent heat wave. The rough is a mixture of grasses and 95% is maintained low. Not very penal in most places except for the designated ornamental patches of wild grass that they grow high that is an almost sure lost ball. The sand traps were near perfect. Nice, thick, excellent quality white sand. The back nine greens were very good, firm and medium fast. The front had several greens that were browned and not in as good of shape. Troon facility, complementary balls on the all grass driving range comes with your daily fee. This is a good course, everything about it is above average, the layout, the condition, the customer service etc. However, it just does not stand out in an area that has many excellent courses within 10-15 miles. Recommended.

Great course! Excellent conditions. Challenging course. Test yourself from back toes for the long hitter. If not blues are challenging as well.

Pace was good.

Staff was no where to be found at 7 am or 12 PM. I always have money for cart attendees, but no one was there??

Love this course.

Play occassionally for 10 years.

I love this course

Try to play it each time I come to PS. Always in wonderful condition, has just enough challenges to make it interesting but not too much for the average golfer to manager. As always, staff are superb. Would not hesitate to recommend this to others.

Best deal in the desert

Not much to say other than nice fairways, tees, lightning fast greens with challenging undulations, ots of beautiful white sand bunkers, wide fairways, long par threes some of which are painful, and last but not least country club atmosphere.

Top notch facility.

Very good golf

I will play this course again and recommend it. Excellent course for average handicap, fairways fairly wide, greens true, course in good condition. All bunkers have real sand at good depth - something I haven't found in the valley at this price range. Pace of play was exceptional - we finished in 3.5 hours.
