Title: Phoenix/Scotsdale?
Post by: David Ober on January 22, 2023, 12:12:18 PM
I’ve never played anywhere in Phoenix/Scottsdale. I will be there for two weddings in the span of four weeks in February/March and my son will be coming in from DC also and we would love to find somewhere to play. Would appreciate recommendations for architecturally interesting and/or fun courses.


Absent that, we would be willing to play an over-priced, yet gorgeously manicured, course also.  ;D

Yes, Longbow in Mesa is one of the better public courses:

So we are going to play Silverleaf. Reached out to a Champions Tour buddy and he set it up. 1:00pm $100 skins game. Can't wait!

David,  When reading putts be sure you know where you are in relation to the valley.  Otherwise you will be surprised
