Played 4/14. I got an online rate of $39 for a 2:28p Tee time. It was 62 degrees, windy, and a chance of rain. Course was still very busy. They said they had over 200 players that day.

In general, the course was in very good condition. The fairways, rough, and sand traps were in very good shape. The greens rolled smooth an were med-fast. About a 10.5. The one exception were the Tee boxes with the gold markers. Many were not level and had many divots. (I guess their was a lot of play that day.)

The course has its own quirks and local knowledge. Holes 2 & 3 play around the driving range. The creek is on the right side of most holes. Avoid missing shots to the right and you will have a chance to play well.

Practice range is small. You can't hit your driver when the tees are up front. Chipping and pitching area are OK. The practice bunker always seems to be flooded. Good practice green. Beverage cart came around 3 times. Outside service was good. I'm amazed we finished our round in 4 1/2 hours. The front side took 2 hrs. 45 mins. It bunched up 2 groups deep on holes 3 & 6. After we played #10 it opened up the rest of the way.

Played 8/13. 3:00p tee time. Green fee w/ cart $22.25. For the summer, the course was in fair-good condition overall. The fairways, rough and sand traps were good. The greens were just fair. They were medium speed, 9.5-10. Many greens had bare spots. Posted some new photos of the courses current condition

No beverage cart service this late in the day. On top of that, NO WATER in the last 3 water coolers on the course. Inexcusable. Glad I didn't get the summer pass this year.

Played 4/20. 1:40 tee time. $39+ tax included green fee & cart fee. A lot has changed for this course since I last reviewed it twice in '09. It's been going through a bankruptcy. They never got the clubhouse built. The course is still a good tough track. Very long from the tips. Over 7300 yards. Three of the four Par 3's are 220, 230, & 240 yards respectively.

Overall the conditions were good. The course lacked some amenities and attention to detail. Ex. The rough and fairways were in good shape. But, they had many old divots and didn't give you any bottles of sand to fill them. The sand traps were good. Plenty of sand in them. The greens were inconsistent and firm. Not real receptive to mid and long iron shots. However, the speed putting was mid-fast. About a 10.5. They were mostly bumpy not smooth.

Beverage cart service was good. Snack shop was still open at the turn. Carts have this annoying smart cart feature you can't shut off. Outside service was fair. Mostly due because they were short handed. It will be reasonably priced in the summer. Still worth playing even though it's not what it once was.

Played 1/22. 1:37p tee time. Got a last minute online rate of $59 + tax. Included practice balls. I thought this was a fun course. It's not very long at 6489 yards, but it has many elevation changes and tight driving holes. Only 2 par 4's a more than 400 yards. Many times a driver off the tee isn't the best play. The conditions of the course overall were good. The fairways & rough were nice. The sand traps had good soft sand. The greens were in good shape. They were a little quick. Putts from above the hole could get away from you in a hurry. Only marks against the course were a few of the back tee boxes were not level and in bad shape. The practice range was short, and had a sign posted to not hit your woods.

Outside service was good. Beverage cart came once early on the front nine. Her last call was (at) 2:15. Definitely would play it again. Posting a few photos.

Played 11/5 with AZgolfer25, Club Whisperer & JohnnyGK. I had a great time playing a great golf course. Lots of scenic views. Course was in immaculate condition almost 3 weeks after over seed. We tried playing the tips and the course really showed its teeth. The greens were very fast. 11-12. The more elevated greens were the driest & the fastest.

Great practice range. Service was perfect. You pay more here than you would at most other courses, but, you play a great golf course and get a high quality golf experience.

Played 10/31. $29+tax. 1:07 tee time. Course was in good condition. They have made a few changes since the last time I played this course in May. They cleaned up some of the areas in the rough. They have improved signage on the course. The carts now are equipped with GPS. They have flipped the nines. Now #1 is the Par 5 dogleg left across the street. #18 is now a short Par 4 with water down the right side. (Old #9)

Very straight forward golf course. Most holes are flat and straight. If you go into the rough or desert, you still have a shot. Fairways have come in nice. Rough has been over seeded as well. It's 1"-3" long and easy to hit from. Sand traps were good. Most greens were good. A little slow. 8-9, but they rolled true. Not much break in them. The last three were were not so good. Looked like they had some extra work done on them.

We mostly had the course to ourselves. Not many players out on Halloween. Played in 4 hours. Saw the beverage cart at least 6 times. Beverage prices were much more reasonable then other courses. Good practice range. Course has a good sports bar called Mulligan's. Lots of TV's. Do it yourself outside service. Good value in season.

Played 10/16. 1:40 tee time. $49 + tax included practice balls. Course was two weeks out from over seed. It played soft. You got little to no roll. Greens were soft under foot and medium speed. 8.5-9.5. It's classic desert golf. You hit shots over forced carries to landing areas. If you stray off into the desert, you most likely have to take an unplayable. Some shots you have to factor in elevation changes. The rough was over seeded. It was lush & not difficult to play from. I think right now in early November it's probably in great condition.

It's over 6800 yards from the tips. It's not super long, but you do need to be accurate. I thought a tough stretch of the course was #11, #12, & #13. Local knowledge can go a long way on those holes.

Practice area was nice. Service was great. Golf course has a large club membership. Later in the season, it's over $100 to play. It's been 14 years since the last time I played here. I'll definitely come back sooner then that. Posting the 7 photos that came out the best.

Played 9/12. Morning tee time. Course played soft. We got the Club Whisper rate of $27. Thru out the summer I got emails ranging from $35 to $55 to play the course. In season It's $100+. Golf course was in immaculate shape 3 weeks before over seed. Tee boxes, fairways, rough, sand traps, and greens were all in great shape. I'm submitting some new photos so every one can judge for themselves.

Talon is 6973 yards. 73.6/143. It's the shorter of the two courses, but it's tighter off the tee than Raptor It has 4 sets of tees, so all levels can enjoy playing it. The most memorable hole is #17 " Devils's Drink." A short 126 yard Par 3 to an island green.

Service was outstanding. Food was good. Each course has its own practice facility. Both are first rate. Many touring pros who live in the Scottsdale/Phoenix area practice here. Definitely on my favorites list.

Played 8/30. First tee time of the day. Course was in great condition overall. Plays very soft this early in the morning. Fairways, rough, sand, and greens were in phenomenal shape for late August. Fairways were lush. They re-sodded some burnt spots. Greens were pure. not a bump on them. They were a medium speed, around a 10. Service was great from bag drop to beverage cart.

Thank you 1Rudedog for the golf round. It was great playing with you.

Played 8/22. Used my summer pass. Paid $10.90. 12:30 tee time. Starfire has 3 nines. We played "King" & "Hawk" this time. Both nines are reasonably short. Together they add up to a 6106 yard Par 70. 68.9/123. It's a traditional style course. Generally flat, tight & tree lined. Houses and busy residential streets define the edges of the course. Overall, it was in fair condition. The hot summer has taken its toll.

The "King" is the best of the 3 nines. It's a Par 36. It has 3 par 3's, 3 par 4's, and 3 par 5's. The Par 5's are reachable in two. Fairways, rough, & sand were all in good shape. Greens were fair. they had some bare spots. Tee box on #8 is in terrible shape. It's like teeing off on a hump.

The "Hawk" is considered the second best of the 3 nines. It's a Par 34. It has 3 par 3's and 1 par 5. The tee shots on holes 5 & 7, require a draw ball flight because of the trees. It was in fair condition. It had some bare spots on the fairways & rough. Greens had more bare spots as we played. The worst greens were #s 6,7, & 8. Submitting pics of the Hawk.

Service was great. All the way from outside service to beverage cart. Two of us had the summer pass. The girl at the front desk gave our third player the pass rate. They have chipping & putting, but no range. Good inexpensive course to play in the winter.

Played 8/15. Paid $14.07 with the summer pass. Golf course was in good condition. Fairways were nice and firm. They had only a few thin spots. Rough was good too. It wasn't very long. You would draw a good lie most of the time. Sand traps were in good shape. The greens were really nice. They were soft underfoot and rolled smooth. Speed was med-fast. About a 10 on the stimp.

Service was outstanding. Good outside service. Bev cart came around at least 6 times. Ordered food for the first time. I had the BLT. It was very good. Others in my group tried the buffalo chicken sandwich. They said it was great.

Played 8/14. It was $24 to play. An extra $5 got you 2 drinks. I've reviewed this course a few times in the past. It has its quirks & local knowledge. It has a small practice range. Hole #s 2 and 3 play around the range. The worst place to miss on this course is to the right because that's where most of the trouble is.

As far as conditions, the course was in good-fair shape. the fairways were good but had some bare spots. The rough was good and thick in some areas, thin in others. I was in a few traps. They were in good shape. They had enough sand and they weren't packed down. The greens I rated fair. They were soft and a little slower than usual. They were a little bumpy and putts had a tough time holding their line. They were sandy and thin.

The bev cart girl was excellent. She kept us all well supplied with ice, whether it was asked for or not.
