Talking Stick Golf Club
Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw, together as a team, have created
the magic of Talking Stick Golf Club. Two uniquely different
courses offer many options according to the golfer's level
of playing skill. Located on and owned by the Salt River Pima-Maricopa
Indian Community, the North and South courses blend with their
tranquil desert surroundings to provide a serene yet challenging
day of play.
 North
Course: "Talking Stick's North course, with its broad,
angular holes rewards thoughtful play through the rise of
its many options according to one's level of skill. Its low-profile,
slightly crowned greens and close-cropped approaches encourage
running as well as aerial assaults." - Bill Coore &
Ben Crenshaw
South Course: "The South course, with its tree-lined
fairways and raised greens defended at the sides offers a
more straightforward style of play." - Bill Coore &
Ben Crenshaw
Greens: Tifdwarf Bermuda
Fairways: Tifway 419 Bermuda - overseeded during
the cool season
Events: Talking Stick has hosted several prominent
events since its opening in January of 1998:
- PGA Tour Qualifying School 1998, 1999
- USGA Mid-Amateur 1998
- AGA 4-Ball Championship 1998
- National Club Championship for Women 1998
