Monument Course vs Pinnacle Course
Monument Courseis Troon North's signature layout — 7,028 yards through dramatic boulder fields with a giant rock formation on the 6th hole (the "Monument" for which it's named). It's the more celebrated of the two courses, frequently appearing on national top-100 public course lists. Slope of 147 from the tips.
Pinnacle Courseplays slightly shorter at 6,882 yards with views of Pinnacle Peak and the McDowell Mountains throughout. It's a better choice for mid-handicap golfers who want the Troon North experience without the Monument's length and slope requirements.
When to Play Troon North
Summer is the hidden opportunity — peak-season rates of $265 drop to $105 or less, and early morning tee times (before 8am) in June and September are genuinely comfortable in the desert. If you're already in Scottsdale in summer and want world-class golf at a fraction of winter prices, Troon North is the answer.
