The San Marcos Golf Course boasts a recent multi-million dollar renovation and now includes a brand new state-of-the-art irrigation system that produces year-round premium playing condition, expanded lakes, new tee boxes, reconstructed bunkers with new sand, and green enlargements on a handful of holes. The result is a strategically-diverse and visually stunning layout that makes for an enjoyable challenge for golfers of all playing abilities.

Some days even the blind squirrel can find the acorn and that’s what I did. I stayed on the course except for one time on #11 OB left scored only one eight and did everything else pretty decently. My 8 came on that hole. Got one birdie on #8. I won with a 63 net 5 strokes better than the three guys at 68 net. Richard Brooks came in second on the scorecard playoff with Thomas Hebert coming in 3rd place in the playoff and Jeff Currie who also had 68 net in the playoff for the Atta-A-Boy award. Rest of the field’s scores read here.

The Legacy Golf Club, rich in heritage and history, is an 18-hole par 71 championship golf course designed by renowned golf course architect Gary Panks. Located on what was once Dwight B. Heard’s 7,500-acre ranch, the golf club is rich in Arizona heritage and history. Taking great pride in preserving and integrating many of the historical structures and monuments, our 18-hole championship golf course offers a unique look and an added opportunity to experience some Arizona history and of the Heard legacy, from which the golf club takes its name. The original two-grain silos, built in 1902, still remain along the 18th fairway and were once the tallest structures in Maricopa County. The Sierra Vista House, which marks the 1st tee, was visited on occasion in the early 1900’s by Theodore Roosevelt and Pancho Villa. Come make your own history at the Legacy Golf Club!
