Good point. Maybe I'll stay in CA this trip and plan a future trip directly to AZ when I'll have more time to play more courses in both Phoenix & Flagstaff. Lately I've been trying to play as many new courses as possible whenever I travel but I don't want to get too far off the path on a side...
Sounds like it will be worth the extra trip up to Flagstaff if I go to Phoenix. If I have to choose only 1 course in Phoenix and 1 course in Flagstaff, what would be the recommendations? I'm thinking of Fountain Hills and then either Thorpe or Snowbowl.
I'm going to be on vacation in San Diego in early September. I've already played all of the courses I know of around San Diego so I was considering taking a side trip to either LA or Phoenix for a couple days to try something new. Anyone have any advice on which area may offer the best options?

Sabattus Is World Class Course
The best signage I've ever seen. Very well groomed fairways and greens. Excellent variety and clever course design keeps it interesting and challenging throughout.
Most of the baskets are surrounded by plenty of mulch which made for soft landings on approach...

Crane Hill Nice Free Course
Quiet, secluded course with well mowed, wide fairways. Nice baskets and partial signs.
Mostly natural tee boxes tend to be either muddy or rocky. No sign at hole 4 causes major confusion. No scorecards or maps.
A few open holes at the beginning and end but mostly...
