Wildfire
Wildfire Golf Club is
an upscale daily fee facility located in Northeast Phoenix/Scottsdale. Open for
play in March of 1997,designed by Arnold Palmer and Palmer Course Design
Company, Wildfire has quickly gained the recognition it deserves as one of the
best new facilities to open in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area. Wildfire Golf Club is
situated in the rugged Sonoran Desert that delivers a target golf experience yet
the expansive fairways allow the player to remain in play even on a slightly
errant shot. Theflashed bunkering at Wildfire Golf Club is superb and so
reminiscent of classical golf course designers as Tillinghast and MacKenzie. The
putting greens carry plenty of undulation like many Arnold Palmer designs
however, the expansive square footage of the greens (average size is 7,000 square
feet) allow the undulations to create subtle challenges for the short game
without feeling contrived or "tricked up". Wildfire, while being lesser known
than our neighbors to the east, Troon North and Grayhawk Golf Club, will deliver
the experience you will remember and this discovery we are sure you will share
with your golfing friends.
