Disappointing condition

Worn out/damaged/thin areas on most fairways. Had to move the ball and play preferred lies. The greens had significant clumps of poe annua grass which affected putting, especially by mid day. Great layout tho, but really unfortunate. Had played this course once before. Was really disappointed with the condition of what is supposed to be a premier course. Until this course has maintenance and condition issues fixed, will not play again.

Nice track

Greens were better than they appeared. First glance they looked dry and a bit slow. They rolled well and true. Undulating but not unfair.

Fun layout with interesting holes. I could play there every day as a "home course" and not get bored. Challenging with a good mix of shorter risk/reward par 4's. I'll be going back and saving Longbow as a favorite

More of a Park style layout

Very nice facility and pace was good for a Saturday morning.

If you are looking for an AZ desert course with Cactus and mountains this isn't the course to play
Mountains in the background on several holes but plays more like a traditional park course.

That said, condition is very nice and layout was great. Nothing gimicky about the holes. What you see is what you get. Challenging but fair for 1st visit

Very Nice Course

Several burned out/thin areas around the greens...just move the ball as ground under repair. Other than that, tees were thick and lush, fairways nice and bunkers were well manicured. Layout was great. We played early as a 2 some and flew around...hard to comment on how pace of play or Marshalls would be on a busy day.

Will definitely keep on my favorites list
