Thread Starter 
I am visiting Phoenix (specifically Chandler) and am looking to play a few rounds. Any suggestions on which courses to play? I'm not amazing golfer by any means (19 handicap) and don't want to break the bank on a round. So, suggestions?

Cheers!

There are several around the Phx area.  In Chandler I like Bear Creek (a links sort of course), San Marcos is one of the oldest courses in AZ,  and Ocotillo is a great set of 3 nines but more expensive.  All in Chandler.  Not far away is Kokopelli a good lay out that won't cost a fortune or Lone Tree.  Both are good value in Gilbert next door to Chandler.

I played Talking Stick, in Scottsdale off of Rt 101, a few months ago.  It's fairly flat, and relatively inviting for a high handicapper.  I found some of the other more famous "desert golf" courses to be a bit frustrating for my game (around a 20 tcp).  It's also a bit cheaper than some of the other big name courses... Not value golf, but not $250/round either...

You gotta play the asu course as well as gold canyon ranch. Might as well play eagle mountain. Phx is easy.to.get.around.

As long as you stay off the freeways during rush hours.

If you are staying in Chandler, I recommend the Gold Canyon courses. Keep in mind that it's peak season in PHX
