I want to know if anyone has played golf in the Phoenix area in Arizona? Do you know which courses are highly recommended? I am looking into the Scottsdale Link Resort, which is next to the TPC Desert Golf Course. (I know that the TPC Stadium is where they have the Phoenix Open. But the TPC Desert is the shorter course and only $56 during high season ($50 for Arizona residents) And I've been told that there are more than 100 championship courses within a 30-minute drive of Scottsdale Links Resort. I don't think I can go during the 2005 FBR Open since that is in less than 2 months but is it worth it to golf in Arizona?

Re: Scottsdale, Arizona
Although this is not in Phoenex, but is in Tuscon Arizona. I was there for a research conference and did not play a round. It was certanly very beautiful though, thought I'd share some pics.
http://www.tucsonnational.com/
This was where the Tuscon Open was held. Maybe I stayed in the same room as Tiger Wood once did!!!
I did get a chance to hit the range, which was free! and comes with free powercart as well! even though the range was literally 30 seconds away from the club house.

Re: Scottsdale, Arizona
I was in Scottsdale a couple of summers ago and stayed at the Scottsdale Princess. Here are a couple of Courses you should check out: the first one is Sunridge Canyon. It is one of the most beautiful courses so make sure you take a camera with you. Another one is Grayhawk, I think it was the Raptor course that I played. And Troon was another nice course.
I also played the TPC stadium course which is nice to say that you've played but it was not as beautiful as the others. All courses make you take a cart in the summer and most have coolers or will let you take a small cooler with you.
And always check out the cactus by the tee off boxes - they will always be full of golf balls.
I have pictures of the above courses so I will try to post them at some point.".......to Golf or not to Golf......What a stupid Question....."

Re: Scottsdale, Arizona
So, you're going to Arizona huh? Well, so am I. I'm going in March. I've got my flight and hotel booked and now I, like you, am trying to find some places to play. Here's are some web sites of golf courses that look interesting.

Re: Scottsdale, Arizona
Originally posted by Queen of the BeachThanks jsunsun. According to this website I think there are more top rated courses in Scottsdale, Arizona than in Phoenix. I guess I'll have to do some more research before I decide. I don't plan on going until the summer so I still have lots of time.
more like a suburb ala toronto/mississauga
phoenix being the original city
scottsdale is just wall to wall golf courses
mostly along scottsdale road
in the summer, green fees will be cheap
also consider the muni/public courses like mc cormick
or university of az, etccallaway FT5 imix fujikura
titleist 975d 3 wood 13º grafalloy prolite

Re: Scottsdale, Arizona
Sunridge Canyon is an amazing course. I loved it and if I ever go back, it will be one of the courses I play. Watch out for wild life though. When we played the course, we played it with a guy who lived in the area and said that the day before one of the greens had a rattle snake sitting on it! Just wait unti you see the 17th hole.....it was so much fun!
Grayhawk is also a nice course, I played the Raptor course. Troon was nice too, some beautiful homes line the fairways.".......to Golf or not to Golf......What a stupid Question....."

Re: Scottsdale, Arizona
I figured that if I'm going to Scottsdale to play golf, I'd like to play some different or unique courses. As a result, I've decided to golf at the following courses.
http://www.sunridgegolf.com/
http://www.eaglemtn.com/
http://www.sanctuarygolf.com/index.html
http://www.gcgr.com/dino.htm
As far as the last one goes, it's called Gold Canyon Golf Resort and the web site doesn't do it justice, so, here are two web sites to help describe it, one with pictures of the course and the other one a review of it.

Re: Scottsdale, Arizona
Sunridge is a great course....here are a couple of pictures from the course.
This is the 14th hole - me at the tee box! Nice little par 3!
The second pciture is the signature hole the 17th par 3. The picture doesn't do it justice. Its tee box and green and then valley inbetween....
I'm jealous that you are playing this course!".......to Golf or not to Golf......What a stupid Question....."

Re: Scottsdale, Arizona
Here is another cool course in Arizona...troon North. The homes on this course are amazing!
Enjoy!
The Cactus with all the balls in it can be seen all over courses in Arizona.
The house is one that they were building when I was there. It is huge! I couldn't believe that it was one house!".......to Golf or not to Golf......What a stupid Question....."
