ASU Karsten Golf Course.
Vista Verde) after playing it. Shot ac-
curacy is needed to score well, but
mostly wide fairways and true-run-
ning greens welcome all skill levels.
Another reason it's worth the
drive: completely unspoiled, stun-
ning views of the Sonoran Desert
and Four Peaks Mountains.
"It's really rare to not find any
homes around a golf course,"
McGinty said. "It feels like you're
in the middle of the desert."
THE APERITIF
Longbow Golf Club, Mesa
Yes, you can have your cake and
eat it, too. Golfers who lust after both
traditional and desert courses will
find their haven at Longbow. "It's a
cool mix of both," McGinty
said. "There are super-
small fairways and greens
that represent desert-style
target golf, but also the
more traditional-style wide
fairways and large greens."
Longbow's layout is without gim-
micks, yet just enough mounding on
the fairways and around the greens
presents interesting challenges. You'll
enjoy true-rolling and Tour-fast
greens, and views uninterrupted by
housing developments.

Sedona Golf Resort, Sedona
Palm Valley Golf Club, Goodyear
For the golf warrior who needs
to play 18 every day, Sedona Golf
Resort in Sedona and Palm Valley
Golf Club in nearby Goodyear are
McGinty's picks for the two to
squeeze in.
Actually, Palm Valley offers two
courses – one designed by Arthur
Hills, the other by Hale Irwin. At par
62, Irwin's Lakes Course is meant
to be a fun and fast alternative to
Hills' tournament Palms Course.
Sedona Golf Resort presents a
traditional layout accented with
postcard holes and elevation
changes. It takes a two-hour drive
north to get there, but you'll be re-
warded by unforgettable views of
the area's famous red rock cliffs.
