Pine at McCormick Ranch Golf Club

I have played better courses in Scottsdale. The layout is fine, but there is a lot of desert grass in the fairways. And I sweat they paint their grass green. Paint was on my ball. It's a long ball hitters course, I don't hit that far so it seemed a little harder for me. Like I said it's OK

The course was great and the staff was very friendly. I was bummed the restaurant was closed and only serving beverages.

Arriving 1.5 hours before my tee time for a lite lunch, range time, I went to get my bag from the Caddyshack to find out they were put onto a different cart who had gone out with someone else. What’s the point to trust them with your stuff if they can’t coordinate names to tee times. Course Rangers did little to no reminders to groups who were holding two groups behind them which included us. A group behind us were aggravate at us taking too long, yet the group ahead were not even 1/4 of the way down the fairway in front each time we tee’d up. Pace of play averaged 4hrs 15mins. Tee box conditions were loaded with unprepared divots making it hard to find a good piece of turf. Not too many water stops along the course. Soft Fairways, Fast Greens. Front 9 = Average golfer friendly / Back 9 = tests Intermediary Golfer.

Beautiful and challenging course but the pace was extremely slow.

The fairways were nice and greens were quick and smooth. The slopes of the greens made it important to make sure birdie puts were uphill. Enjoyed the back side more than the front as the is flat and fairly wide open with very few trees. The back has more character with more trees, rolling terrain and is more scenic. Overall for what you get for your $, would rather pay more for a better quality course.

McCormick Ranch is a very nice property. It wasn't at its best due to the recent rain. Even though it was wet and there was a good deal of casual water in places the course held up well. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food service in the restaurant was very accommodating. I found it to be a nice place to play and I'm sure it would be great on a nicer day.

I booked the tee time through Golfnow. The one thing I was not aware of was that we were the first group, 2 of us, behind an outing that was a scramble format. Play was extremely slow. Our tee time was at 1pm and I was concerned about finishing before dark.

The golf staff came to us on the 9th hole and corrected the issue by moving us to the front 9 of the Palm course to complete our round. This was great. We played pretty quickly, no one in front of us and the group behind us was at least one hole behind. Great management of handling an issue.

Everything about the course was really great and the views were amazing. I got a 20% off hit deals rate , so the course met the expectation and was priced right.

Poor overseed, limited to no watering, extremely dry, spray painted fairways to attempt to make it look ok. Will never play again

The course was nice. I like that the range balls are included in the round. The grass was not over seeded. Because of this the course didn't look that good. The overall play was still good and the greens were very fast.

We had never played McCormick previously but had heard good things about it. The cart staff were friendly and professional, providing great service upon arrival to the course and upon completion of our round. Fairways were in great shape and the dormant rough, which we were in a lot, provided consistent lies. The greens were the best aspect though. They were quick, smooth, and putts held their line. Absolute pleasure to putt on. We thought the price point was a little higher than it should've been, but being in Scottsdale its what you'd expect. Overall great day and would be open to playing here again.

Just an average course in my opinion. Definitely not worth $150. The overseeded areas are thin at best. Whoever mowed the greens on the Pine course did not do a good job. Driving the mower straight and cutting the entire surface are the basics. I would not send a friend to McCormick Ranch in its current condition. Trilogy felt like Augusta compared to Pine course and it was $30 less.
