VGA offers prearranged golf events on Wednesdays and Saturdays at courses in the Phoenix area. Membership in VGA open to Men & Women
Wednesday, August 9th, 2017 / Arrowhead Country Club
With a spectacular Arnold Palmer-designed championship golf course as its centerpiece and superlative service as its cornerstone, Arrowhead Country Club re-defines the private golf and lifestyle club experience. From its beautiful clubhouse and state-of-the-art sports club and spa to the comprehensive swim complex, 10-court tennis center and myriad of dining and banquet venues, Arrowhead offers members and their guests endless opportunities for socializing, networking, competing and memory-making amidst the stunning beauty of Glendale’s West Valley.
Tony Dalton finds his place in the sun today by winning the Arrowhead Country Club event at 70 net. Perhaps a vacation is good for the soul. In second place Gordon Lukert the Dean and self proclaimed Patriarch of VGA with a fine 72 net. Some rumors about the R being put back on his handicap, I hope are not true. Perhaps the Palmer spirit has taken over his body. Third place was very popular today, four players scored a tie at 73 net. Dave Dean got the last paycheck for 3rd place on the scorecard playoff. Well done Dave. Neal Fisel, Steve Richter, and Mike Roether share the Atta-a-Boy. Next up Camelback-Ambiente on Saturday another fine course to challenge your golfing spirit. Rest of the field scores below.
Next up for VGA, Saturday, August 12, 2017 Camelback-Ambiente 7:30:00 AM $49.00.
Ambiente Course, Designed by notable golf architect Jason Straka on behalf of Hurdzan/Fry Environmental Golf Design, Ambiente presents a distinct challenge where accuracy and a good strategy command the day, as every hole will force even the best players to focus on each and every shot. Golfers find the eye-catching elevation changes, as well as rolling fairways with significant drops throughout the course, are among its most striking features. Ambiente was completely renovated and re-opened as a new course in November 2013.
