Raptor at Grayhawk Golf Club
Played On 05/30/2015Challenging But Fair
I loved the Raptor. It may have helped that I played well, but what I love is that its complex around the greens but fair. If you hit it solid, you are rewarded. On the wrong side of the hole and you are in trouble.
We played 1 up and it was fair. A mix of short and long, with most tee shots level or downhill.
I was fortunate to play a few other top end courses, and none were as complex around the greens as Raptor.
I am a huge fan and would play there again in a heartbeat, even in 100+ conditions.
TPC Scottsdale - The Stadium Course
Played On 05/29/2015Best Conditions I Have Played
I have been to Scotland and a bit around the country and none rival the shape the course was in. Not saying its as good of a course as the top end ones in teh USA and world, but the conditions were mint.
The greens were smooth, green and had a perfect roll (played late May). The sand was a perfect white with the right about of crispness for clean bunker shots, whether in the fairway or green side. The tee boxes and fairways were meticulous.
I was a huge fan. I liked the mix of easy and hard. We played the 1 up tees and I thought it was fair. I actually played the front better. The back I thought was easier with 2 par 5's and some short holes that i felt were open (outside of 11, which was really tough), but I just didnt score.
Either way, I highly recommend if making a trip.
Coyote Preserve Golf Club
Played On 9/22/2012Hidden Gem
The course was a great value and it being fairly far away from Metro Detroit I havent played it before.
First off, its actually not that far. Living in Berkley it was a 45 minute drive. Yes its 47 miles away, but its all Highway.
Secondly, the course is in great shape and the greens putted very true.
Third, there were some picturesque holes on the course. I was surprised on how great the course was and cant wait to play again.
Whether at full price, or a value on Golf Now the course is one that should be played.
