Anthem Golf & Country Club - Persimmon Course, Anthem, AZ

Course Management is a must, here.

I have played this course several times and a mind-set of course management is the key to scoring well. You don't have to "grip and rip" here. Well placed shots are rewarded. The greems are firm but hold true. Great views of the area. The split 9th/18th green is not to be missed. If you can get "up and down" or like to scramble you can do well here. Little too much on the fees for non-members, but it is a definite golf experience while here in the valley. This is a thinking man's/woman's type of course, strategy not brute power is the key. This layout will definitely hold your interest. Pleasure to play. Get that 3-iron out and learn the "Texas Fade" and you may be in the mid 70's before you know it here. "Bailout" areas are also very plentiful to assist in your course management process.
