This is one of the toughest courses you will ever play in your life, with a slope of 158 from the blacks.... and that doesn't take the violent afternoon wind into account.

I played Arrow Creek for the first time on Tuesday. The layout and the views up and down are downright picturesque!
I felt I played well but my score did not reflect it as the greens were monstrous and hard to read. They were slow one hole and fast the next. I hit the green on a par 3 226 yard hole only to three putt. How frustrating. I guess as I play this course over and over I would get to know the greens and score better.. I am an 18.7 and played the rust tees for a 103 at Arrow Creek.
Don-t know if I will be back. The members kinda look down on you as if to say, "don-t mess up my course homie."
