Check the Playgrounds forum for tons of Phoenix/Scottsdale information.

I played Grayhawk (Raptor course) last weekend and the rough was longer and the greens faster than usual in preparation for the frys.com open in a couple of weeks.

As a rule I find anything shouted at a golf event, other than a cheer, annoying and generally moronic.

Ignoring my avatar for a moment I would play Murphy Creek before I played Arrowhead. Arrowhead is great for the scenery which appeals to those form out of town but as far as golf goes Murphy Creek is, in my opinion, a better course.

I would play Bear Dance over Riverdale.

I would take a new set of irons. My driver is "old" but I think I would benefit more from a new set of irons.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Might be tough to pull off this time, maybe another time. I lived in Seattle for awhile not too long ago and I remember all too well the traffic. No es bueno.

For those of you that have played Chambers Bay can you give me an idea of how long your round took? I ask becaue I am going to be in Seattle for a wedding in a few weeks and would LOVE to play the course on Saturday before the wedding. Thanks.

Not quite. Give Eagle Vail Golf Club a shot. I think you can play for about $100 until noon and about $75 after that.

Any thoughts on the Westin Kierland? My wife are staying there but haven't heard much about the course and at $130 I would prefer leaving the grounds to play a better course. Right now I'm booked at We-Ko-Pa Saguaro and TPC Stadium and would like to play Gold Canyon and Grayhawk. I have 4 days available for golf so if I hear really good things about Kierland I will most likely drop the round at the Stadium course. I don't mind these tough decisions!

FTW I'll add this for what it's worth; if you conclude a post with "mods, please feel free to delete at any time" then you probably shouldn't submit the post.

I'm at a point where I am striking the ball fairly well and consistently but that has not translated to lower scores so I would vote for scoring well.

It's one thing to post a score that is +/- a few strokes from your actual score but to post a score that is 22 shots lower than your actual total is crap. Not sure what he is trying to accomplish because if you tell folks that you are a +1 and you go out and shoot 19 over then your credibility starts to take a hit.
