Hey guys, newbie here looking for advice.  I'm planning a trip to Scottsdale next Jan/ Feb, at the same time as the WM Open, and I'm looking for advice on courses to play.  We'll probably play 3 days, so 4-5 rounds will be the goal.  So far, I think we've narrowed it down to Playing both Troon North and We-Ko-Pa courses, and maybe Grayhawk.  I'd like to play courses that are relatively close to TPC, since we'll be staying about 5 miles North of there.  Are there any others that you'd suggest?  I realize that we're coming at a busy time, so I'm assuming green fees will be bringing top dollar.

It's been close to 10 years since I played golf in the PHX area.....last time I was there, we played Legend Trail, Ocotillo, and Seville G&CC.

Sat- WM Open

Sun- Dinosour Course at Gold Canyon

Scottsdale 2019 is booked....I was finally able to make the last tee time a few weeks ago.

Wed- Raven Golf Club

Thurs- Troon North (both courses)

Fri- Dinosaur Mountain

Sat- WM Open

Sun- Papago

I tried to get on at WeKoPa, but they were already booked up.....even though I called before their booking window even began. In any case, I'm looking forward to a few days of desert golf for my 40th birthday.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
    • I have access to far more data (including surveys and polls) than you do with your anecdotes. I mean this as plainly and literally as possible: you’ve demonstrated that you do not. They would, one way or the other.
