... Sadly there is no such thing in Scottsdale. You are looking at $200+ for what I consider average courses and some below average. If you can venture out another 40 miles or so you could probably find something a little less expensive, but not much.

Thanks. That’s what my preliminary research showed. Here is Alabama we have some great courses under $100

... Well we blame all of you guys.   With ideal winter weather featuring plenty of sunshine and low humidity folks flying in from a long weekend to a couple weeks are willing to pay whatever it costs to pay golf in the middle of winter. Quite a few snowbirds with winter homes as well. So courses locals can play for $49 in June-August will cost us $249 the rest of the year. We used to have friendly local rates but why should courses discount rates when their tee sheets are full from visitors?

Sorry, totally get it. Never been and it’s a bucket list trip. I guess we should have chosen June.

... Gonna be the same whether you come our not so you might as well cross it off your bucket list. When you get close to booking your rounds feel free to reach out and I'll let you know which courses you should play and which to avoid. As far as visiting Scottsdale in June

Thanks, I will check with you. I appreciate it

Or you could just start saving $$$ now. From Louisiana and travel to AZ every year for a golf trip end of February. Played all the top courses and it's worth every penny for a bucket list trip. Courses are immaculate!
