Starfire Mulligan 9

Enjoyed the mulligan 9 again as it’s the perfect course to take the very casual golfers.

It was 86 degrees this day.

The water fountain at hole 6/7 was not operational. Should make golfers aware of this so they can get some water before going out.

Adding to above the beverage cart should have made at least one round through golfers 2 hour rounds on the Mulligan 9.

Tee boxes were has hard has a rock. Very difficult to put tees into the ground.

First Time Playing

Talking Stick North

Have been coming to the valley since the late 80’s and knowing when Talking Stick opened up in the late 90’s I’m surprised that this was my first play here.

Played the North Course. Very enjoyable, great shape and speed of play was excellent. My pet peeve is slow play so I welcome rounds like this.

I’ll be back!

Thanks,

Kokopelli played March 11 2024

Have always liked Kokopelli golf course. Well maintained and friendly staff.

Really hard to find courses now with an acceptable rate given to what we use to pay prior to Covid.

Kokopelli, although rates have jumped as well still one of the better deals in the valley.

BK at Orange Tree

I’ve played here for many years. Starting back in the late 80’s. One of the premier courses back then.

Honestly, the place seems to be going down hill from previous years. The pro shop staff were cold, kinda like I was interfering in other things they were doing. Maybe “Hi, welcome to Orange Tree or Welcome back would have worked 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️.

No one at Bag Drop. Have to ring a buzzer now for help? Really? I carried them in.

Back shop employee probably the only one did a great job getting me set up in my cart and after my round cleaning my clubs and getting them out to the bag drop.

Starters and Marshals were great and accommodating with good information to share.

The course was in great shape but not that super shape that warrants these high tee time prices. You’ve really jacked them up since Covid. Probably like most trying to make up your money back in just a few winters 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

If you’re charging these rates or more next winter/spring then I won’t be back. Lot’s of courses out there competing for the golfers $$’s.

TPC Stadium course - play date March 13, 2023

Play here lots. Always enjoy.

Only complaint this time was that greens were very slow and shaggy to the standards I’m used to here at TPC Stadium.

Playing this Friday March 24th, 2023. Will see how the greens are then.

Cheers 🍻 BK (Alberta, Canada)

TPC Stadium Course

Have played the course many times over the years. Always a treat to play. Staff off and on the course are friendly and hospitable.

First time ever, found the greens not up to the speed like past plays here. Slow and shaggy for TPC Stadium standards.

Keep up the great work !!

General comment

I've played here many times with positive results. This time was disappointing. Bag drop staff (one of them particular) was snotty not only to me but others as well. Not a good start. Pro shop staff were great. Now the beverage cart girl seemed like she didn't want to be there. We had to flag her down so she would stop. Not friendly or cordial. We asked what brands of beer she had and she said go look for yourself. Really!?! And no beverage cart on the back nine at all on a hot busy Friday afternoon. Really!?!. We called the kitchen from the course and we were told they were not sure if the beverage cart was still working or not. Really!?! This just added to a negative experience for the day. I won't be going back any time soon. Lots of other great courses in the area to play. I was a golf club board director so customer service is very important to me. I'm hoping this is an isolated event for this golf course.
