I've played virtually all of the desirable higher end publicly accessible golf courses in scottsdale and greater Phoenix valley, including those in Sedona, Prescott, Payson, and to a lesser degree - north Tucson. In my opinion, Wickenburg Ranch is in the top 5 for scenic setting, quality greens, technical challenge, value, and overall satisfaction. Quintero, Seven Canyons, Sedona Golf Resort, Troon North Pinnacle, and Gold Canyon Dinosaur are the other 4. In my humble opinion. One word of caution -- the AZ Highway patrol representatives on the road out there are nice guys but I haven't met one yet that seems to be a golfer. And Wickenburg takes longer than you think it will take to get there so you may find yourself pushing the speed limit to make your tee time. Not a good idea..... trust me
