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

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.

    • First round at Quail Ridge: 47 + 47 = 94 *Note: It was 25+ mph winds with gust in the 35+ mph. It was also around 58 degrees. I felt like I was out in Oregon. The greens were very firm.  Driver was decent. It didn't cause me an issues.  Irons were the biggest issue. Just low point control was lacking. Mostly on the chunky side. Also, my irons were routinely 20-30 yards shorter than normal. Even on holes with a cross wind, the ball was just dying. We played an extra 9 holes after the first 18, and the wind died down by then. I stepped into a 9 iron, and it came up 15 yards short. I have no clue what is going on. I should not be hitting 9 irons 140 yards when I am hitting my driver 300 to 310 yards.  Warmup didn't give me much confidence. I just kept shanking every other iron shot. I didn't shank an iron during the round. I just felt all out of sorts today. Coordinate felt off.  yea, I have no idea if I am purposely slowing down my swing to feel my downswing piece. Again, I hit a decent 9 iron and lost 15 yards of carry. I hope this is just an off day.   
    • Day 565 - 2026-04-19 Wanted to get home to do some spring cleaning type stuff, so I practiced for about seven or eight minutes and got my butt home. Just backswing stuff, mostly, with freezers and a little downswing feel. Liking the new big mirror I have.

    • Day 22: played 18. Shot okay - 80 - but long game was bad. Saved by some good putting and short game. 
    • Well that's about the dumbest thing I've read today.
