Vistal Golf Club Phoenix AZ
–
701 E. Thunderbird Trail, Phoenix
(602) 305-7755
Vistal Golf Club is situated about as far south in Phoenix as you can get. This course bumps up against the South Mountains and is exactly what I thought Arizona golf would be like. Very firm fairways nestled in between lots of sand, cactus and rocks. It looks like the desert courses on Golden Tee.
The par 71 Vistal is a relatively average 6,625 yard course from the Championship tees, but it is heavily bunkered and it will bite you if are unable to control your ball. We were warned more that once about looking for lost balls in the desert areas because of rattlesnakes. Spectacular views of the entire Phoenix metro area abound on the back nine, which climb up steadily into the foothills. Though we both played rusty and poorly, we really liked this interesting and very affordable course.
