Scottsdale Golf Club Opens New Nine-Hole Private Golf Course
Jan 31, 2020
January 31, 2020 - /PressAdvantage/ - With private golf courses becoming a trend in Scottsdale, Arizona, The Country Club at DC Ranch, a golf club in Scottsdale, has just opened its nine-hole private golf course. This is in keeping with the rising demand for shorter golf courses to enable golfers to squeeze in some golfing time within their busy schedules. The usual four hours that would be consumed by a regular 18-hole golf course is too long and people are searching for new opportunities to enjoy this sport without having to make a lot of adjustments to their schedules.
Melanie Halpert, Director of Membership at The Country Club at DC Ranch, says, “Making golf more approachable is key. We have observed that members are busier than ever and want an opportunity to play even if they don’t have four hours to commit. This is why we have opened The Horseshoe, a nine-hole, short course with holes ranging from 54 to 104 yards. This is a perfect fit. Also, those golfers new to the sport may be intimidated to play a traditional 18-hole course. This short course will provide them with a fun opportunity to learn and enjoy the game.”
They have also introduced other additions to the Practice Park, such as an 8,500 square foot green for practicing putting; a larger practice tee space; and a larger short game area that has greenside bunkers and two chipping greens. The enhanced practice area provides members with many opportunities and space for practicing and improving their game.
Before the addition of the nine-hole course, The Country Club at DC Ranch already had a standard 18-hole golf course that is strategically positioned on a knoll that is adjacent to the McDowell Mountains. This allows the golf players to enjoy the beautiful scenery while playing all 18 holes.
Meanwhile, the Scottsdale golf club has also released the Gold Tees for members. These new golf tees can be used to play to a yardage of 3,969 yards, which is approximately 3,000 yards shorter than that for the black tees and 1,100 yards shorter compared to that of the red tees. The Gold Tee is perfect for players of all ages and ability levels. The Gold Tee Box provides members opportunities to play and get on the green in regulation more often. The Gold Tee is rated at 60.5 for men with a slope of 98, while it is rated at 61.6 for women and a slope of 100.
The Country Club at DC Ranch also wants people to know about its 45,000 sq ft Hacienda Clubhouse that can serve as a venue for a number of important events, such as weddings. Their clubhouse has been designed in such a way that people would be able to use it as a home away from home, with its various of amenities and activities for all members of the family. The amenities include the resort pool, six tennis courts, golf course, kid’s club, teen room, fitness and performance center, men’s and women’s lounges and locker rooms, boardroom, a grand event courtyard, conservatory private dining, ranch house pool restaurant, mixed grill dining room, bar, golf shop, wine room, and more.
They also offer upscale dining provided with a casual Southwestern flair. They have a Ranch Hacienda-style clubhouse that mixes Old World architecture and historic Arizona elements. They also have a Mixed Grill restaurant that offers various kinds of appetizers, salads, sandwiches, and entrees that have been inspired by traditional American cuisine but with a southwestern twist.
The Country Club at DC Ranch has been a favorite a location for weddings and other important occasions. And the Event Lawn, which is just next to the Swimming Pool, can serve as the perfect place for a wedding ceremony or reception.
