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...

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.

    • The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.
    • I saw this comment made in a golf article... "Most golfers stand over a 4- or 5-iron still negotiating with themselves. They think about how hard to swing, whether they have the right club, if they have the aim correct and more. It’s a lot to deal with and long irons punish the “half-in” golf swing." I am not sure the "most golfers" is correct regarding the bolded part. I can understand if there is a bunker, water, and/or OB that a lot of golfers would be fixated on that. I am not sure that leads to ending up more times there. Pending your level in golf, the variance is so large in outcomes, it could be just with in the expected outcomes. I can understand if have a big lake on the right side of the hole being one of the most terrifying shots for right-handed amateur golfers.  I am not sure many golfers are standing over the ball talking to themselves, "Ok, maybe I should step back and pull the 4-iron. Am I lined up right? Oh, the wind came up, should I swing harder? What am I going to have for dinner tonight, maybe steak. (Joking, somewhat 😛)" A question is that how much chatter do you get while standing over the ball. Are you questioning the everything about your golf shot?
