There are dozens of courses in the city and hundreds in the region, all of which benefit from gor- geous scenery and top-notch conditions. But during the week of December 5-11, those courses will be even more in the spotlight as the area will host the inaugural Scottsdale Golf Week. The golf-themed event, modeled after the successful Restaurant Week, is a way to showcase the area's incredible array of golf by offering visitors special pricing, offers and vacation packages at dozens of the region's most heralded courses, resorts and attractions. >>> Longbow Golf Club.
