We played it back in 18 or 19. It was just ok but yes, a short , tight course. The shortbhitters seemed to like it, long hitters not so much.

I really only posted it as a lesser priced play option. I'd much rather play Estrella.

You have my clubs so will call you once I have my travel deets to make arrangements. Off to Bandon Dunes for a week, week after next so probably after that

See you soonish

    We have played Estrella three years in a row and I was trying to change it up. Still an excellent value, so will keep it in play as an option.

    Whirlwind was in poor shape last time we played it, but that has been a while. Will see.
    Southern Dunes a good option even though its just one course.

    Reports are Whirlwind is not the best this time of year. September may be totally different.

    I played Whirlwind a couple of weeks a go. Greens and tee boxes were fine, fairways had typical summer “hot” spots where the Bermuda didn’t fill in but the course was playable no problem. Typical of summer golf in Arizona heat.

    We Ko Pa on Saturday - $130 for 18 holes, $240 for 36. Cholla in the morning, Saguaro in the afternoon.

    Verrado is Thursday - Victory first, but they gave us a deal. Victory in the morning for $46+tax, Founders in the afternoon for a replay rate of $21+tax.

    Still need to book Friday, and Wednesday for the early arrivers.

    Ok folks, here is the plan thus far:

    Wednesday September 7th: Whirlwind - order to be determined. ($150 for 36 holes, not sure of the morning-only rate yet)
    Thursday September 8th: Verrado - Victory morning ($46+tax), then Founders ($21+tax replay).
    Friday September 9th: TBD
    Saturday September 10th: We Ko Pa - Cholla morning ($130 for 18), then Saguaro ($240 for 36).

    Update for courses and pricing. Still looking to book for Friday.

    Wednesday September 7th: Whirlwind. Cattail morning ($90), Devils Claw afternoon ($60).
    Thursday September 8th: Verrado - Victory morning ($46), then Founders afternoon ($21).
    Friday September 9th: TBD
    Saturday September 10th: We Ko Pa, Cholla morning ($130), then Saguaro ($240 for 36).

    Its also time to start gathering the roster to ensure tee times. Please chime in if you see something amiss.

      What about Southern Dunes for Friday? That's a great course which we haven't played for several years.

      And I'm in for all rounds!

      Jack and Kenny will play I just need to let them know what’s going on.

      I’m in for Wednesday-Saturday only 18 each day unless something changes.

          Sounds good Bob.

          james ( Customgolf) and I will hopefully be playing Papago the afternoon of Tuesday the 6th probably 2-230 tee time ....if Jack or anyone else wants to join in ....speak up

              5 days later

              I should be good to play at least the morning rounds each day Wed-Saturday. maybe even an afternoon round one of the days 🙂

              I am not sure that I can make it this year. We moved up to Vegas this summer, and with the kids activities I am not sure I can sneak down. Still working on it, and I might be a last minute add in, but out for now.

              It would be TUESDAY afternoon , and that would be great if you could . 🙂

                Looks like Papago is undergoing renos and all holes wont be open so we might need to look at Raven ( looks quite nice) or GCU ( have played before on arrival day) ....both close to the airport.
