Sixteen holes at 7,000 feet in the Mogollon Rim country
Sixteen holes at 7,000 feet in the Mogollon Rim country. Payson runs through ponderosa pines with elevation changes that keep your legs honest. The air is thin and the ball flies. Summer rates bring Phoenix golfers up the mountain to escape the heat. Cart-mandatory it is not. The terrain asks something of you, but nothing unreasonable. Walking here means trading the desert floor for forest golf without the drive to Flagstaff. A round that earns its place on any Arizona walking list outside the usual Scottsdale rotation.
