Desert Mountain Club has the distinction of possessing not only one Jack Nicklaus-designed course, but six golf courses designed by the legendary golfer. Almost all of the courses have desert-style layouts with natural desert vegetation coming into play near the fairways and greens. The Cochise Course features medium-sized, elevated greens that are well protected by sand bunkers. The subtle contours of the greens require a deft touch. The signature holes are four challenging "risk-and reward" par-5's. One particularly challenging hole on Desert Mountain's Cochise course is the par-3, seventh. Its modest length is deceptive since there is an elevated peninsula green on the hole. Water hazards also come into play on a few holes.

Outlaw at Desert Mountain

This is the Last course Jack Nicklaus has designed at Desert Mountain. Outlaw was opened in 2003 and is a links design. Much of the course has views of the Tonto National Forest, and Four Peaks, The Mcdowell Mountains and Pinnacle peak can be see from this high terrain track. The fairways are for the most part forgiving but the greens and areas around them make for a real short game test. You will use every club in your bag and every type of shot here. Club selection is critical on the teeing ground. Outlaw is a truly a very fun and challenging course to play especially on the first visit.
