Arizona Golf Courses: Talking Stick Golf Club

Although both courses are essentially flat, they sit in a position to take in spectacular views of Camelback Mountain, Pinnacle Peak, and the McDowell Mountains in the distance. Located on the Salt River Pima Maricopa Indian community, Talking Stick Golf Club offers a true desert experience as there is not a single house on the course. The facility is managed by Troon Golf.

Credited by the design team of Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore, The North course is an extremely long but fair test of golf featuring Scottish-style bunkers on what is basically a links layout.

The South course, also a Crenshaw/Coore design, has smaller green with bunkers that come into play more, especially around the greens. The Fairways are lined with trees and the greens tend to be elevated just a bit.

All in all, Talking Stick Golf Club will make for a great Arizona golf vacation experience.
