This facility is located in the East Valley near Phoenix and features two eighteen hole courses. The links-style North Course is a refreshing minimalist design that features wide fairways void of any trees, strategic bunkering, native grasses and unobstructed views.
The North Course, which is located on the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community, offers players the chance to run their shots. The greens are open, the fairways wide, and the roughly carved bunkers look as if they've been there for hundreds of years.
The South Course features subtle elevation changes, fingered bunkers and heavily-treed landscaping of native cottonwoods and hardwoods. An expansive learning center and clubhouse is also available.
You'd expect more "wow" moments for the peak greens fee of $175, but Talking Stick North delivers a sufficiently solid experience. Most visitors won't feel too shortchanged, but they won't be sprinting back to the starter either.
Fairways and greens were ideal for early December, but lush conditions ruled out the run-up shots the architects intended. There are enough strategic choices to make you think, but the course lacks any real drama.
This Club has multiple courses:
