North Golf Course at Sun City

We were walking. We got to 11 and we started waiting each hole after that. We had 6 players in front of us. 3 men 3 Ladies. This is unacceptable. But a nice course.

Walking rate is phenomenal given the astronomical prices at most courses. That’s about it.

Fairways and greens like concrete. 5somes in front and behind us. I wouldn’t play here again even if it was free.

Layout was fine, but every green had a fortress of sand on either side with a tiny opening to aim at. Fine if this is the case on a couple holes, not the majority. Made for a frustrating day for this amateur.

Decent course for a muni. No goofy holes. Tough par threes. Cut through a residential area
I’d go back

Course was in good condition, pace of play a little slow but what usually happens this time of year in Phx.

Always enjoy playing this course. Check in smooth. Ball dispenser not working but easily rectified by staff. Teed off on time. Had fivesome in front of us with what looked like beginners. Fell behind and tried to move to front most tee but issue was slow play on/near greens. Still played in 4:15 Course in good shape.

Check in always smooth. Actually teed off early. Played with a very nice younger couple. Course was in decent shape. Greens are pretty quick. Bunkers were taken care of. Rough is always the same with little grass or bare areas around the green. makes chipping pretty difficult to impossible. Same for most Sun City courses. Played in 4 hours, even with the group in front of us falling a couple holes behind, even riding carts.

Decent value, but mediocre course. Golf carts are an extra charge and they do not have many to rent so be prepared to walk. (they only have about a dozen or so carts.) With the golf cart included the price is comparable to other nicer courses which have plenty of carts to rent. Pace was slower than normal. 5-somes are common. Our group was made into a 5-some. Fairways are cut close almost to the point of becoming a tight lie. The rough is dead grass and hard pan dirt. Greens are also cut very close, not sure why. Approach shots would sometimes bounce to the back of the green if they hit any slope at all when landing. Anything coming in low had no chance of staying on. All greens are raised, most of the rest of the course is flat.

Can’t beat a $35 walking rate for winter in AZ. Course was in solid condition outside of the rough which was dormant with lots of bare spots. Great soft sand in the bunkers and the greens rolled true. Fun 72 layout with 5 par 5s and 5 par 3s. Get to hit every club in the bag.

I don’t know if it was because we were golf now customers are if it is a standard practice, but they put five of us together in a group. There were only two in the group behind us. With five we naturally Played slower than normal. This was the second time that this has been done on one of the Sun City public courses.
