Grayhawk Golf Club Public
Scottsdale, Arizona - 480-502-1800 www.grayhawkgolf.com This facility has two dynamic eighteen hole courses.

Scorecard Reviews/Comments   MrBusinessGolf - 3/25/07Guys and Gals, If you have not played Grayhawk, heck if you have not just been to Grayhawk, you are missing out on a real good golf experience. If it where Phil Michelson frequents and is still and active member... I can’t go anywhere in Phoenix without stopping by and playing ether course. I invite you to try it and see for yourself...for a Texan to rant on about a course not in the Lone Start state, well you know it has to be something.
