As an avid golfer and self-proclaimed golf course connoisseur, I can confidently say that both the Monument and Pinnacle courses at Troon North are exceptional in their own right. Each course offers a unique and challenging golfing experience that will leave any golfer wanting to come back for more.
The Monument course, designed by Tom Weiskopf, is a true masterpiece. With its stunning desert landscape and breathtaking views of Pinnacle Peak, this course is a visual delight. The fairways are meticulously maintained and the bentgrass greens are some of the best I’ve ever played on. The layout of the course is strategic and requires careful shot placement to navigate the various hazards and bunkers. The signature hole, the par-3 8th, is a real showstopper with its elevated tee and panoramic views. Playing the Monument course is like stepping into a golfing paradise.
On the other hand, the Pinnacle course, also designed by Tom Weiskopf, offers a different but equally impressive golfing experience. This course is known for its rugged desert terrain and challenging shot options. The fairways are undulating and the greens are fast and true. The course demands accuracy and precision, with strategically placed bunkers and water hazards that come into play on several holes. The stunning views of the surrounding desert landscape add to the overall beauty of the course. The par-5 5th hole, with its risk-reward options, is a personal favorite of mine. Playing the Pinnacle course is a true test of skill and strategy.
Choosing the best course at Troon North ultimately comes down to personal preference. If you prefer a more visually striking course with a variety of challenging holes, then the Monument course may be your top choice. However, if you enjoy a more rugged and strategic golfing experience, then the Pinnacle course is the way to go.
