Talking Stick Golf Club - O'odham Course
Played On 08/13/2017Wide fairways
We stayed at the Talking Stick resort so I played the North course Sunday and Monday mornings at 06:30. The staff is friendly, the range is nice, with stacks of balls to hit. There is nothing wrong with the course. Being from the midwest, I like to play the desert courses that are target golf, more in the foothills. This is more resort golf, wide fairways, huge greens. I played with one ball for 36 holes. The rate was fair and the pace of play was great! i was paired up with very nice people both days so I had an enjoyable time playing at Talking Stick. The only challenge was the greens have their summer grass so the hold the ball perfectly and are about a 1.5 on the stent meter. We pretty much just smashed the putts, scraped the second one and moved on. I'm sure the greens will be perfect when the weather cools.
Nice place, treated well, just not overly challenging.

Played On 06/20/2016Always a fun course
I played with my son, we are 8 and 9 handicap. The layout is really fun, a lot of variety in hole set up, plenty of chances to score. Tee boxes are rough, the greens are pretty slow but relatively true. If you miss and get in the high grass, the ball is gone! You may find you ball in the woods, in some spots. The only real down side is the ground is hard so the club bounced into a few shots and a couple of balls took hard bounces, OB which was a little annoying. Bunkers not great.
Fun course, worth the drive.
The Eagles Golf Club - Forest
Played On 03/30/2016Pretty tight, lots of water
Challenging fun layout. The course is in nice shape, not highly manicured but well maintained. Son and I both 9 handicaps, shot 81 and 84. Lots of wildlife. Well worth the $
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, meagolfer! We're so glad to hear that you and your son had a fun and challenging round with us. We hope to see you again soon!

Bardmoor Golf & Tennis Club
Played On 03/31/2015Way Overpriced
Played with my 14 year old son. This was the 3rd Golf Now round of the week. All other courses gave us a youth rate, these guys said no. With cart this course is worth about $25 for 18 holes. The course was in pretty good shape, clubhouse and facilities a bit run down. As for the course, pictures look nice, course was easy! On the front we were stuck behind a group of 90 year old men who were oblivious to us waiting for every shot. We got by on hole 12, Son and i are both 10 handicap, shot 37 and 38 on the back side.
The staff seemed inconvenienced. We had lunch, there was one person cooking and running the dining room. We were scheduled to play 36, had pre-paid the second 18, we skipped it and went to the beach. Range didn't open to 9 AM.
Wentworth Golf Club
Played On 03/30/2015Challenging
High School son and I played this course last year and this year on Spring Break. Tight driving, lots of water and sand. Greens fast and true. We will play Wentworth next Spring Break.
