Distance:
~5.42 mi * |

Description:
SCOTTSDALE. Extremely exclusive, this course offers six different sets of tees, allowing all levels of golfers to find a comfortable challenge. Treacherous desert areas that are nearly impossible to play from line the fairways. Many of the holes are long, but if you get too aggressive and miss the fairway, you probably won't be happy; that is, if you find your ball at all. |
