 McCormick Ranch Golf Club in Scottsdale is an award-winning facility that provides the area with two distinctive 18-hole championship layouts. Both designs were created in the early 70,s and have undergone extensive “facelifts” since 1998. Among some of the more prominent renovations are: The resurfacing of all 36 greens with a hardier variety of grass that makes for a smoother year round surface, the rebuilding of the majority of the bunkers on both courses, aesthetic and structural improvements on the bridges which link the holes on both courses, and the addition of some 25 acres of desert transition area to the 268 acres of land. The clubhouse and pro shop have also undergone positive renovations, helping McCormick ranch to be once again listed on the revered list of Scottsdale area courses to be played. The overwhelming characteristic that separates this property from many of the courses in the area is the vast number of trees on both layouts. Palms, Pines, oaks, eucalyptus and other species native to the southwest total over 4,000 between the two courses. Both are traditional layouts, with trees, water hazards and bunkers providing the obstacles to par. There are also numerous doglegs to challenge your shot-making ability. No forced carries over desert, so even the novice has a chance of finishing the round with one ball. If you are not accurate however, your ball will sit precariously amongst the tall pines and palms that line the fairways, often all the way to the newly remodeled putting surfaces.
