First time out this year - Got to go to Phoenix!
I was in Phoenix over the weekend for a business trip and got to play my first round of the year at The 500 Club. What a great course. I just started playing in July and I shot a 121. I thought that was pretty decent given the fact that I just started playing and the course was pretty difficult. I finally realized where my game needs help - putting. If I 2 putted every hole, I would have lost 25 strokes and broke 100. Speed (too much) is a big issue for me. My driving has greatly improved from last year, I only missed 3 fairways. So overall I am happy and just wanted to pass it on to everyone. I would highly reccomend The 500 Club to anyone looking to play in the Phoenix area.

Sounds fun.

I played the TPC at Scottsdale once when I was out there. It was not at the full heat of the summer, but was probably over 100.

Very fun course. Got up and down from the bunker on 18 for par.

It's fun to watch it on TV now and remember the holes.
