Quarry Course at Black Diamond Ranch, Lecanto FL. Charity fund raiser scramble. SWMBO and I and another couple carded a -10, 62 for a 5th place finish. One of the most scenic (and private) courses I have played and it's right here at home!

Thanks Greg. This is a gated private community course that is a Tom Fazio project. This is an annual fundraiser that gives us normal schmucks a chance to play here. There were 36 teams competing and we beat 31 of them! The conditions were so perfect, I wondered if we were allowed to walk on the greens. My highlight of the day was my 120 yard 9 iron shot that hit the green, kicked toward the hole, rolled up and dunked for EAGLE!

Played Dove Valley Ranch today in Cave Creek. Pretty course with a few tricked up holes.

Sweet looking course, but where are the hills?

 

[azgreg]

No hills but lots of desert.

SWMBO and I played desert SW golf once at Paiute Resort outside of Lost Wages. It was fabulous and I'd like to do it again someday.

Played Arizona Grand Resort Golf course yesterday. I played this course a few years ago and now remember why I hadn't gone back. One of the faults of having so many golf courses in the area, you forget which ones you don't want to play again. I like links type courses but once in a while you like to mix it up some. What I like about links style courses is you have room to miss. Phoenix is loaded with desert/target golf courses. This course pushes that description. A lot of really tight driving holes that don't fit my game. There are also a lot of tricked up holes. Oh well, here's a few pics.

Par five third hole.



Approach to the par five 14th. The green is about 50 feet above the fairway. This hole is called Courthouse Steps.



Course ends with a par three with about a 100 foot drop.

A lot of the courses are experiencing burned out fairways. Much more than I remember in past years.

I see some SERIOUS after-landing-roll-out there. PapaD could probably hit one 250!

Played in the rental house flower bed today. Our renters have let it go over the last few years. They moved out yesterday as we have a contract on the house and set to close on the 30th.

P.s. Playing golf tomorrow!!!
