Thanks to everyone for your input!

Must say thankyou to Uttexas in particular though, the PGA Superstore certainly does look great- will most likely pop in and stay there until I'm kicked out!!

Sadly with so many courses to play and, as always, too little time I've narrowed it down to:

TPC Stadium (just had to!)
Grayhawk GC (Both Raptor and Talon)
Eagle Mountain GC
Gold Canyon - Dinosaur Mountain Course
Troon North - Monument Course

Hopefully next time I'll check out others including We-Ko-Pa and The Boulders.

Looks like I'm playing just before a huge price hike at most of the courses which is a nice surprise!

Thanks again to everyone for their recommendations...

Just got back from my AZ trip.

Wekopa was a nice course, but it kicked my ass. 107º heat. and me spraying balls all day does not mix. I want a rematch, in January.

Monument was fun. not too tough, and very relaxing.

The Canyon/Desert courses at the Phoenician was interesting. Kind of gimicky though with the crazy elevation changes on the Par 3s.

good times though..

thanks for the recommends.

and for the late night scene.. The W. and Skin was awesome too...

Ping MB 52º, 56º
755: 5-W
Steelhead III: 5w, 7w
Ping: G10 10.5 UST Regular

It's an OK course. Nothing to get overly excited about but it is nice and usually in good shape. They are running some specials right now on Tuesdays and Wed. Can be a bit pricey this time of year ($100+ weekends)

I played there a few summers ago and got paired with Mannie Jackson, the owner of the Harlem Globetrotters. Great guy. Not that it matters.

      Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.

      I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on.

      I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
