Good summer conditions

Fairways: plush and in great shape
Greens: On the firm side, but a bit bumpy and slow
Rough: thick
Bunkers: very firm

Friendly staff with timely beverage cart and good marshal presence.

One negative that has been true for years: golf carts shut down when you get within 10-30 yards of "no carts" signs. Signs should be placed more accurately via GPS.

Good value but avoid those bunkers

Course was in good shape, to include firm but consistent greens. A few burned out places in the fairways as is common around the valley this time of year. Unfortunately the bunkers are extremely punitive with thin, hard packed sand and wet underneath. Very tough to escape over high lips.

Poor Shape

Wigwam Gold: This was before they aerated the greens, but the course was not in good shape: fairways had many thin or dirt patches, and the greens were dirt bare in several places. Overall a very disappointing experience on what is usually a well-conditioned course.

Not bad for July

Course is in good shape: fairways have very few thin spots and the rough is not out of control. Fairway and green side bunkers are in good shape. Greens are OK and speed is good but not 100% recovered from June (?) aeration. Need to do a better job of keeping water refill jugs full on course.

Recommend golfers play up a tee if in doubt - this course plays long.

Links course greens and bunkers need work

Greens have not quite recovered from aeration in June and are very slow compared to most valley courses. Bunkers are basically dirt - wet and heavy. They need to replace the sand in all bunkers. Many sidewalks are rough to drive on - hold on to your drinks! Course condition overall not bad for July - getting lots of water on fairways and greens. Some monsoon related debris under most trees needs to be cleaned up. O.B. on several holes not clearly marked.
