Scottsdale Silverado Golf Club - Silver Pony Course

No driving range for the price being charged is a non starter in my book. There are times when it feels like it’s a mile drive from the green to the next tee. The fairways and greens were just not up to where they should be this time of year.

Excellent course. Not the most Challenging course, but, an excellent way to sharpen your skills, try new things, and just have a fun afternoon of golf.

The course was in great shape and played well! I like the layout of the stages they have for warm-up before you’re round of golf. Start at the putting green, hit into the nets, then Chip.

The front pace went great. The back nine was bunched up after the 11th. We tried to skip ahead but there was no opening. We played 18th then left. It seemed like foursomes skipped ahead anticipating not being able to finish before sunset.

I enjoy playing this course when wintering in AZ. Love the second 9 holes which has more elevation change and is more challenging. They have a putting green and chipping area. Instead of a driving range they have area where you can hit balls into a net which accommodates 4 people. This area is TERRIBLE. The net has holes in it which captures you ball and the surface you hit off of is a cement pad with indoor/outdoor carpeting with no pad underneath it. This results in your club bouncing off the turf. When paying $150-$200 a round with no driving range, you would expect a top notch warm up area.
