Peaks at Tonto Verde Golf Club
Played On 05/01/2021Way too slow
I've played many rounds here on both courses & it never gets any faster. Glacial pace of play takes all enjoyment out of round. Courses are great, but it's hard to get into a round that permits napping.
Verde River Golf & Social Club
Played On 04/17/2021It doesn't get slower
5+ hour round. No rangering - members turtled around without consideration for daily fee players. Rumor has it that the course is going private. It can't happen too soon, so the members can then stretch a round to 6 hours. A good course is wasted on sloths.
Quail Run at Rio Verde Country Club
Played On 10/09/2016More slow play
An average course that should have been done in 3.5 hrs, but loaded w/ oldster members & reciprocals from other clubs who couldn't get it done in 5 hrs. Not worth playing, even if your member-host pays.
Warren Golf Course At Notre Dame
Played On 07/10/2016More slow play
10 minute tee times not enforced -- starter put groups off ASAP. Result -- slow play. 2hr 15 min 1st 9, with 2 groups on 10 tee & 1 in fairway turned the round into 9 holes. Marshal waved & did nothing to get things moving. The slow play is not a consequence of the course layout -- it's very playable. Course conditions OK -- tees & greens well manicured, but fairways full of unhealed divots. I will pass on this course next time I'm in the area & play a private course instead.
Poston Butte Golf Club
Played On 05/15/2016One & done
Not worth the time. 4 hours to play 13 holes. No marshals. Back ups of 4 groups on par 3 12th hole & it only got worse. Both of our groups decided that was enough. The best part of the experience was the cafeteria/restaurant.
