1846.3 | some recent info | ATEIS::MILLER | | Wed Mar 02 1994 17:55 | 27 |

Was just out there last week. Am not completely sure but believe
the fairways at Superstition Springs were not overseeded (i.e.,
tees and area around greens are green, fairways are brown)
Superstition is a somewhat challenging course often with deep rough
in the area around the greens.
Dobson Ranch is a wide open course with green tees and green areas.
Brown fairways but play nicely. You can play a round at Dobson for
about $40 with cart. Ken McDonald in Tempe is a nice course that
can be played for less than $30. For a little drive, Western Skies
south of Chandler is nice.
I have played Gold Canyon and it is a desert target course. Some
people love it, some hate it.
There are occasionally coupons in the paper for courses like Rancho
San Marcos (Chanlder) that have a resort layout. A similar course,
but a bit further drive would be Chuparuso Springs ( I think it is
in Gilbert). The Vans and Nevada Bobs golf stores sell a couple
different coupon books. Take careful note of the days of the week
and the weeks of the year the coupons are good for. Also watch out
for 2-1 green fees but required separate charges for carts.
Have fun out there. The weather has been beautiful !

1846.4 | CLUB WEST - very nice | ATEIS::MILLER | | Thu Mar 03 1994 09:16 | 9 |
|
CLUB WEST is a new course in the foothills area in South Phoenix,
about 20 minute drive from central Scottsdale. It open last year
and was completely sodded. I played it and found it very nice.
The cost, if my memory is correct, was about $69/person plus tax.
This is a little over your goal set but I feel the course is very
nice. Some very interesting holes, double greens, elevated tees,etc.

1846.6 | New Number for Arizona Golf Association | HARBOR::COPELAND | | Fri Mar 04 1994 18:29 | 11 |
| RE: .1,.2
I got that number from an Arizona tourist publication. And - you are
right I just called it and it is no longer in service. Their new number
is 602-944-3035. They are open 7:30 to 3:30 their time. Since it is
after their hours I could not reach them to see if they still provide
information.
I will try next week.

1846.7 | Papago - $25.50 | ANGLIN::SUZDA | Office of Perpendicular Processing | Tue Mar 08 1994 11:13 | 15 |
| I just came back from a week out in Scottsdale yesterday. I opted for
Papago everyday because I wanted to keep the costs down this trip.
$25.50 for non-residents + cart, but I walked it. The greens and tee
areas were beautiful. The fairways are just starting to turn green.
The paper had about 3-4 courses with coupons in the $30-$75 range.
Stone Creek was $85, only a little higher than most of the other
resorts. The weather was great, 82-87 degrees.
Have fun and good luck.
Regards,
Tom
