If you are in the South Mountain /Ahwatukee area Club West golf course is worth playing. The facilities are modern, well maintained and as picturesque as the golf course itself which winds through residential neighborhoods and desert. The signature hole is a par 3 elevated tee box nested 100 feet or so high. You will want to take a shot with your camera before or after your tee shot. The view is pretty spectacular.

Golf plays well for all levels although if you tend to not hit the ball straight and wind up off the fairway more than on, the recovery shots are not so friendly as you will most likely find your ball in a hard dirt desert area. If you are like me and you depend on that recovery shot to get you back into a par situation you might want to consider adjusting your shot. Don't expect to pop the ball up. Just hit it low and run it up the fairway.

The are several tee shots that are elevated and fun to hit from. Mother nature factors in as natural desert washes make you consider your next shot. When you are finished playing the clubhouse is a great place to relax, enjoy the views and talk about your round. Chances are there are some games on the big screen televisions inside to wind down before ending you experience.

$25-$70 depending on season and time of day. You can find some good deals online in our Golf Course Directory.

Course:
18 hole championship, scenic views. Goof for all level players

Condition:
The course seems to be in fair condition. Not super groomed and manicured, but this was during the hot season. Areas outside of the rough are hard dirt.

Beautiful vistas of South Mountain

Downside:
As I mentioned before, I rely on the extra help when I am not on the fairway. That hard dirt is not fun to hit off.

On-site restaurant. Good food at a decent price. Good place to watch a game or catch golf on tv.
