SAGUARO CANYON COUNTRY CLUB A Southwest Desert Golf Course This course layout is an adaptation of the Barton Creek West layout designed by John McGowan revised for play with Jack Nicklaus Golf & Design - Signature Edition. This challenging 18 hole course has a par of 74 and a course length of 7491 yards. It has a number of raised greens and numerous sloping fairways which require careful club selection to reach the best landing areas. Conservative play within normal club distance restraints is required to achieve Par or less. Read the hole quotations closely for hints on achieving par. Errant drives or approach shots will result in some unexpected ball action, so take time. Benchmark scores for Ladies and Men in the Novice class were established in May 1992, and are shown below: HOLE 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 Total PAR 4 3 5 4 4 5 3 3 5 5 4 3 4 4 5 5 4 4 74 TEES Ladies 6 2 2 4 4 4 2 4 5 5 3 4 6 4 4 5 4 4 72 Mens 3 4 3 4 4 5 2 3 4 5 4 3 4 4 3 5 4 4 68 Competition Play vs [Computer] Professionals, on 5/14/92 & 5/16/92 Bob 4 4 6 4 4 4 3 3 5 5 4 2 4 4 3 4 5 5 73 Dan P. 5 4 6 5 5 5 3 4 5 6 4 5 4 4 4 6 5 7 87 Bob 3 4 5 4 5 4 3 4 5 5 3 3 4 3 3 5 5 3 71 Jack N. 3 3 6 5 3 4 3 3 4 5 3 4 5 3 3 6 8 3 74 Note: The Expert Game Players, Dan Phoenix and Jack Nicklaus had difficulty with the holes with Bunkers at their Optimum Tee shot distance, and especially Bunkers which bisect the fairway. Dan also tends to putt short on all greens. When you play any hole, use the Auto Caddy to measure your shots , to insure you choose the proper club. Bob McGowan 5/12/92
