Course Design |
|
Each of the 18 holes were carefully designed to ensure a challenging yet enjoyable golfing experience. The course starts off fairly smooth and advances as the game continues. By the time that you reach the final four holes you have entered into what is known as “Gambler’s Bluff”. These final four holes are the most secluded and challenging as they were built into the surrounding mountains. |
Memberships |
|
Many Troon residents are members of The Golf Club Scottsdale because of its close proximity to Troon. The initiation fee is $25,000 with dues of $850 per month. The membership is considered a “right to use” membership, rather than an equity membership. Although it is not an equity membership, the initiation fee is 100% refundable if you choose to resign as a member. This type of membership also means that there are no voting rights and there are no assessment fees. The membership fee entitles members to unlimited use of the Golf Course, Practice Facility, and Clubhouse. The Golf Club Scottsdale currently has about 150 members and will allow a maximum of 350 members to join. |
Practice Facility |
|
The practice facility is one of the largest in Scottsdale. It offers 14 acres of practice area. This facility is set up with multiple target sites, practice tees, a driving range, a putting range, and a short game arena. It is currently undergoing construction to add an additional acre of private practice area that will allow the instructors to work with golfers on more of a one on one basis without disturbing other members. |
Clubhouse
The 25,000 square-foot hacienda-style clubhouse gives off the illusion that it has been part of the land for hundreds of years. It illustrates rustic charm while offering a number of modern day amenities. There are three restaurants located in the clubhouse. They are the Men’s Grill, Main Dining, and the Outdoor Cantina.
The men’s locker room offers a steam room, hot pool, and a massage area. Just adjacent to this locker room is the men’s grill and private veranda. The women’s locker room also offers a steam room, hot pool, massage area but in addition to this there is a private courtyard with gorgeous mountain views.
