The Masters!


Set beneath the dramatic backdrop of South Mountain, the largest municipal mountain park in the world, this Gary Panks designed course recently underwent a bunker renovation and is the new crowned jewel of Phoenix's municipal golf courses. This $6.5 million, 210-acre facility features an 18-Hole Championship Course and a 9-hole course. This links designed course offers a challenging layout and design and fairways and greens flanked by numerous bunkers. Transition areas feature native grasses and wildflowers of the Sonoran Desert. Aguila, surrounded by scenic mountain views and Phoenix's downtown skyline, welcomes all levels of golfers from beginners to expert (scratch) golfers.  The 18-Hole Championship Course features three lakes coming into play on five holes, with continuous cart paths and four sets of tees.  

This is where we will separate the boys from the men on tour. The first Major of the season is a little over 4 weeks away. There are only two tournaments between now and then so practice will be the key to victory. I will post the hole by hole breakdown as we get closer to the date, as well as how we are doing the scoring to make it an even playing field for all. I will post the handicaps of all players a week before the Masters so we all know what we have to do to take the prestigious masters jacket home with them on this day!
