Echo Mesa Gc - Sun City West

Desert target golf demands precision here, where elevated tees launch drives across sandy washes toward greens carved into Arizona's Sonoran landscape. The routing maximizes dramatic elevation changes rare in Phoenix-area public golf, particularly on the par-3 signature hole that plunges 75 feet from tee to green with McDowell Mountains framing the backdrop. Mature saguaros and desert ironwood create natural hazards that punish wayward shots while rewarding course management over pure distance.
