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...

If you are staying in Chandler, I recommend the Gold Canyon courses. Keep in mind that it's peak season in PHX [URL=http://www.gcgr.com/sites/courses/custom.asp?id=985&page;=57236]http://www.gcgr.com/sites/courses/custom.asp?id=985&page;=57236[/URL]

    • Day 262: range session at lunch. Worked on feels with full swings and trying to aim properly. 
    • Update:   From my lesson I mentioned to the coach the regrip and he spotted me doing it as I placed my right hand on the grip of all places 🤣 we worked to maintain the left hand and weaken the right, slightly weaker face angle at parallel and holding the face open through impact, nice straight fades, some small some big but a big departure from the duck hooks. Now just need to slowly dial it back to either a manageable fade or straight-ish
    • I use four different sharpie markings on my golf balls. A single black dot on each side near the number, flourencent yellow along the alignment, and a series of 5 to 6 dots on the opposite side from the alignment. I've found that after applying markings, it's best to hit em with a hair dryer and allow 24 hours to cure before playing. This should cut down dramatically on transfer. It's also a good idea to make sure your sharpie's are fresh, not old.
