  • i rated it a 3 but its more of like a 2.5. It was raining heavily a night before... yes it rains in AZ too. Guess what on the next morning when we headed out to Superstition Spring, one 9 is closed. The course is flooded with water, they purposely flood one nine so that the houses around the neighborhood wont be flooded. Also i rated it lower due to public/municipal course, no offence but lots of people is playing due to cost effectiveness. The pro shop guy is really a nice guy very different from some of the DICK heads i have bump into. He gave us a choice a discount or play somewhere else without charging us.. Yes we booked thru golfnow so its usually pay first and play later. anyway the signature hole that i can think off... its the hole 14 PAR 4. water hazard forces you to carefully place your tee shot. alleviated green with bunker guarding the entrance, and water hazard on the left... so hookers pls be careful not to get to excited and hook while getting onto the green. will i go back there again? yes i will for the fact my only repeated nine left me the itch and incomplete feeling. Edited: Nov 3 2013:- i managed to play there yesterday, experience on the pro shop registration is somewhat the same back in 2012. Bill is sloppy and lack of information or should i say he is couldn't careless if the course is packed or what so ever. I like him in person very friendly. I had my tee time at 12:30 and i didn't mange to tee of until 1:00p and not to mention the starter had me cut the line. If i would have stayed till my turn i would be like teeing off maybe at 1:45 - 2:00 and i would have not being able to finish. Will i go back again? well if i am the residence near by i wouldn't mind but for visitors please stay away from this course. They are not the best and not the prettiest for all the hassle. back to the course design, if you are one of those that played and felt its difficult and not playing to your expectation, i tell you, you are not the only one. I have played with a regular and he said its so difficult to hit GIR although most of his tee off is on the fairway (12/18 not including PAR 3). His course knowledge is great, but still shoots in the low 80s. What i have notice is the greens are harder than normal as comparison to other US course (my home course is exactly the Superstition hard as a pan fry i call it) the other thing is the greens are usually raised. i am not sure if that's the intended design but my experience tells me its due to old course where maintenance keeps on filling and packing new sand onto the green without much punching holes and watering the green and most important of all let it rest (its hard when its a very busy course). Lastly the greens are smaller than the greens you find at the near by courses of Az. so these 3 factors make it hard to get GIR. Lots of water play as well (Az is a dessert) so folks to spray at tee off will have challenges. like i have said based on the revisit experience, i will not play this course again unless its dirt cheap say $5. so i will drop my rating from 2.5 to 1.
