Eighteen green Photo submitted by Rosey461 on 06/16/2014
The Stick
Great course! The pace of play was excellent. Love the open fairways.
Awesome
Great pace of play, you get a lot of roll out of your ball, greens perfect
Not worth the money
The greens were recently aerated and they did not roll very well. Very slow and bouncy! For $80+, I expected a better experience. Fairways were in good shape for this time of year. Sand traps were in good shape.
I have played this course before and really enjoyed it.
Great course overall
Always in good condition and is a high quality course.
Fun and forgiving course
First time playing Talking Stick. Was amazed how green the fairways were for being the summer. The driving range and putting green was also in fantastic condition. Pace of play was very quick, sub 4 hours. Greens were brown, but was expected this time of the year with the heat. They rolled amazing which is all that matters. Can tell they take really good care of the course all year round. The course is very forgiving, there is no rough. Just huge fairways and desert landscape! Will be back for sure.
Good course good staff need better facilities
Course is great staff was awesome just wish they had some coolers out at the holes, cart girl only came by once and snack shack was closed by like 4
Impeccably maintained, fun layout
Course was really well maintained. No real flaws or negatives at all about our round. Booked through GolfNow and the price was pretty reasonable by Scottsdale standards. Fairways were wide and greens rolled flawlessly. Layout was fun and competitive, just wish the had sprinkled in a few signature/memorable holes. Great practice facility, nice clubhouse and drink cart made frequent rounds.
Still a great course.
Haven’t played Talking Stick in several years. The course was in great shape and still fun.
My only complaint was the pace of play. It took nearly 5 hours to play. Otherwise it was a good experience. I would recommend it to anyone.
A friendly course
I appreciated the friendliness of all the staff and the forgiving course layout. A fun round for the money.
Great afternoon on the course
Most holes have wide open space
Hazards are well placed for challenges
Can stay out of trouble if stay off the edges
Play was very smooth until 6th and then a major backup behind a foursome
Playing solo, you can expect some delays from a larger group.
However, when got to 6, the pair in front of me was waiting as soon the solo behind me was also done and waiting, with 4 tee times all logjammed at 6.
We decided to group up and play as a foursome and had a great afternoon
Stop closing the range
GolfNow doesn’t tell you they close their range at 1:30pm. was the only reason I booked this last minute round because it said practice balls included. Get there and can’t warm up? Pretty insane on a golf course not exactly charging cheap prices. I will say; I got a hot deal on golf now for 50 bucks, and that’s exactly what this course should be. If I paid 150 here I would be so upset
