The desert target golf here demands precision over power, with saguaro-lined fairways that punish wayward shots but reward strategic play through natural washes and elevation changes. Tom Weiskopf's routing maximizes the dramatic Sonoran Desert topography, creating approach shots that play significantly longer than the yardage suggests due to forced carries and elevated greens. What separates this Scottsdale track from the pack is its commitment to preserving the natural desert floor—you'll find more untouched Sonoran landscape than manicured turf, making every round feel like a backcountry adventure.
