ZZZZZZZzzzzzz

It took us 2.25 hours to play 9 holes. (We're talking an executive course.) I've often played 18 in about the same amount of time.
We paid for 18 holes, but decided to quit after 9; quit, that is, before we started screaming.
Come to think of it, I'd better quit writing now. (I'm feeling a scream coming on!)
(Regarding the list below: "This course is great for, 'A long nap after every hole.')

Mr.

Our t-time was 3:54--we got out at 3:45--so we certainly did not expect to finish. However, the golfers ahead of us had three speeds: Slow, slower and slowest; therefore, 2 1/2 hours to play 9 holes. Yikes! Pathetic! Ben Crane* wannabees. (*Ben was ranked the slowest player to ever play on the PGA tour.)

Yikes!

I couldn't believe that they had 1/2 of the course closed without having informed us of this fact when we booked the round.
We played on a moderately (Arizona/May) day and were expecting to move around the course quickly. We had a double and a single ahead of us (and believe it or not) they slowed down our foursome (ALL DAY LONG) It took us more than four hours to play the round with nary a course ranger in sight.
I do appreciate that it was a GREAT RATE and that it was summer and that you need to maintain the course; but, a little heads up would have been nice. In fact, a little heads up would have been expected.

Mr.

They could sure use a Ranger on this course. We had some kids ahead of us (good to see young people playing) who knew nothing of the etiquette of golf. We finished in the dark.

Just what I expected from previous play. It is a good value for winter play in Phoenix.

Silverado Course Review

Some additional amenities (like a beer bargain or appetizer special would have been nice.)
We played Starfire last week and they had $1.00 PBR and $1.00 appetizer--chips and salsa.
We'll go back there, if they repeat the promotion, in a heartbeat.
Folks treated us nice, cold towels were appreciated, course was in good shape except for recent arriation. (sp?)

Disappointed

We have played "The Legends" a number of times over the years. We were extremely disappointed because we felt like the course had "shut down" for the summer.
The pace of play was extremely slow. One party, two groups ahead of us, actually quit the course on number 13 and returned to the clubhouse. We asked them to send out a ranger . . . didn't happen. The greens had been sanded, apparently, and were greased lightning. They are undulating greens, challenging under the best of conditions, and, well, you know. The price was right, but we expected better conditions.
Also, I bought a jumbo bucket of range balls, when I got to the range, found myself hitting off sand. What a mess. (It should have been a sign!) I was sorry I used some of my golfnow promos on this course.
