Arizona Golf Course Review

Papago Golf Club - Arizona Golf Course 08

For golfers looking to fit in an opening round on their arrival date of a golf trip, and for those looking to finish their trip with a quality round near the airport - it does not get any better than Papago! As a muni - this course has been listed as one of the top five in the country. Currently, the layout, conditioning and service rivals many of the top courses in the state.  Papago is situated just a 5 to 10 minute drive from Sky Harbor Airport! This course is highly recommended by twoguyswhogolf.com!

Papago has been home to the Phoenix Open Qualifying, and has been awarded 4 stars by Golf Digest Places to Play. The layout is marked with desert transition areas that help to define the holes, and rolling, contoured fairways that are lined with palms, pines and other native trees. The renovation of the course included the removal of nearly 400 trees that were planted in the 1960s in an effort to promote turf growth and restore many of the course's original sight lines and views.

On property is a grass range that has recently been expanded plus two practice greens for putting and chipping. The clubhouse features a pro shop plus snack area that serves hot & cold sandwiches and other lunch items.

The green complexes are raised and well bunkered, with putting surfaces that have been restored to their original size and replanted with Bermuda Mini-Verde.  Bermuda-Tiffway 419 has been installed on all sloped areas around the tees, greens, bunker and lakes; and Riviera-Bermuda has been planted on all fairways and tee boxes. All bunkers on the property were completely restored and returned to their original shape and contour. Twelve new bunkers were added throughout the course and some of the original bunkers were moved to accommodate the length of the modern game. There are no residential properties along the layout, and partial cart paths mean that golfers can drive on most fairways. This is a good walking course - and walking is allowed at all times, even on weekends.

Five sets of tee boxes play to distances and slopes measuring 7,333 yards, 6,771 yards, 6,382 yards, 5,777 yards and 5,434 yards. The diagrams provided on the scorecards are helpful, and golfers will find 100, 150 and 200 yard markers on the fairways, plus color coded flags that indicate front, middle and back pin placements.

If you are going to be in Phoenix for awhile, the Phoenix card is available ($50 fee and $30 annual renewal) and provides advance tee time reservations, discounted rates and promotional specials at all of the municipal courses.
