Grayhawk Golf Club (Talon)
Slightly more scenic and desert-focused than Raptor
About the Course
While Raptor gets the tournament attention, Grayhawk's Talon Course offers what many consider a more visually stunning desert golf experience. The David Graham and Gary Panks design winds more dramatically through the Sonoran Desert landscape, with holes that frame spectacular views of the McDowell Mountains and natural desert washes that come into play strategically. The course features more elevation change than Raptor and a routing that feels more intimately connected to the desert environment. Together, Raptor and Talon create one of the finest 36-hole public golf experiences in the Southwest, each offering a distinct character while sharing the same excellent service and atmosphere.
