Del Lago Golf Club – Vail, AZ
Holes: 18 Par: 72 Yardage: 7,206 Architect: Nugent Golf Associates
With 120 feet of elevation change, Del Lago’s 1st hole begins at the highest point, then plays down into the valley, coming to the back nine, which runs along Pantano Wash. The course winds its way through the hills and valleys of the high desert, with spectacular and unique views of the backside of the Rincon Mountains and the Santa Catalina’s.
The greens are Tif Eagle, a Bermuda hybrid, while the fairways are Bermuda in the summer and overseeded rye in the winter. Seven lakes come into play on six holes, affecting a variety of shots: some drives, several approaches – just enough to put a little spice into the round. Strong bunkering around the greens adds to the challenge.
