Sterling Grove Golf & Country Club

Sterling Grove Golf & Country Club

     Sterling Grove Golf and Country Club is a newer Nicklaus designed course located just west of Phoenix. About 25 miles west in Surprise, AZ lies this beautifully designed course that has made a name for its layout and greens in the west valley, very fast! This 7,200 yard, Par 72 championship golf course is here to test your skill at every shot. The tight bending fairways, endless bunkers and fast greens push you to be dialed in. 
     There is plenty of new development laid out in a Toll Brothers community that forced us to image what this club will look like once fully developed. Moving through the neighborhood with beautiful Mountain View back drops leave you nothing but speechless. We will be back soon to see some of the new development. 
     The front 9 holes play longer than the back, however I believe the front 9 was way more fun if your game is on. A little longer on the par 3’s playing 189 and 215 give you less room for forgiveness. However hole 6 is a 315 yard par 4 surrounded by water on the left side leading up to the green. Hit a good drive or layup just short of the green and you should have a good look at birdie every time. 
     The back 9 plays just shy of 3600 yards and had some shorter par 4’s but really stepped on some length in the par 3 and 5 category. 2 par 5’s playing 550+ and hole 17, a 241 yard par 3 giving this back 9 the challenge it was looking for. Greens roll true on all sides so bring the flat stick cause it is key to scoring out here. Green side and fairway bunkers are the biggest concern since the fairways are tighter. Strategically placed if you end up in a fairway bunker, in most cases you have to lay up getting out or have a long way in with more bunkers surrounding the green. Bring your A game off the T! 
     Circling through the neighborhood, course and the brand new clubhouse really give this club the community feel. With fantastic rates and multiple different ways to play, Sterling Grove & Country club is a west valley gem that isn’t hidden any more. If you live in the area or are traveling, you have to get out to see this place. The proximity to the airport and other AZ amenities it makes this stop a no brainer! We know we will be back soon!
