Brutal

The #1 handicap hole at Pinnacle Peak Country Club, this demanding 468-yard par 4 serves as the course's ultimate test of precision and power. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Sonoran Desert and the iconic Pinnacle Peak mountain, this straight-away challenge appears deceptively simple but reveals its teeth through length and accuracy demands. The generous fairway welcomes aggressive tee shots, but the real challenge lies in the approach to a small, well-guarded green complex that punishes anything less than surgical precision. With minimal hazards to distract, golfers must rely on pure shotmaking ability, making this hole a true separator where course management and execution determine success on one of Scottsdale's most respected desert layouts.
