Rating 72.9

The Longbow Golf Club offers 18 holes of par-72 golf that measures 7,003 yards from the Tips tees.

A round of golf at the Longbow Golf Club kicks off on the par-4 first hole, which measures 451 yards from the tips. The back nine kicks off on the monstrous 10th hole, a par 5 that comes in at 626 yards from the tips. The round of golf ends up a bit easier, with only 474 yards separating the tips tee from the hole, a distance that the golf club recommends golfers clear in four strokes.

Longbow Golf Club offers SoloRider golf carts, allowing golfers with disabilities the chance to get around the golf course, as the carts are able to drive right on the greens without causing any damage.

Course was in great shape

All the staff that I interacted with were great and they let me out early as it was pretty slow.
Greens were good and so were the tees and fairways, sand was decent. I'd go back in a
heartbeat.

Why did I wait 15 years to play?

Had not played here in many years…. I have been missing out. Great service in the pro shop, bag drop, and cart women. Course was in great condition despite other courses in the area claiming the record heat made it impossible to have said conditions. Greens were perfect speed and bunkers were fluffy. Played as a single with just a single ahead of me…. Didn’t wait to hit a shot until 17th fairway.. awesome pace. Pro tip, use a neon colored ball on 13.. left side of fairway littered with white range balls.

First Time Playing

Easily one of my top favorite courses in the valley now.

First time playing longbow. Always has great reviews and I see why. Tee’d off at 7am solo and have no complaints. Tee boxes to fairways and greens are perfect. Probably one of the best up kept courses I’ve seen in the summer time ever. At least public course I could only imagine peak season. Definitely will be playing here alot more!

First round at Longbow

Friendly staff. Excellent pace of play for the two of us. It was quite hot (over 100*) and windy. It took awhile to adjust to the speed of the greens. Too many three putts. The course layout is good and hitting the fairways is important. Took a few penalty strokes because the ball rolled into a bush. A good value

Can’t beat this value

I played this course today for the first time, I’ve always stayed away for some reason but decided to try it out with a buddy of mine.

Staff is very friendly and helpful.

The course layout is challenging but fair.

Conditions were immaculate and greens not too fast,m.

They had coolers on almost every hole, stocked to the brim with ice water bottles.

Overall an amazing experience, GREAT value, and will definitely be back!

Great shape

This course is in great condition especially for the summer , the fairways are well maintained, the bunkers are trimmed but could use a little more sand ; the greens are firm and roll as they should . This is a must play

Longbow Summer Special

Deal time round in August turned out to be a great value. Some tee boxes were closed for renewal but other than that the course was in great condition. Mountain View’s and no adjacent residential development made for a nice environment. The greens fee included a small warmup bag for range and the staff and amenities were top notch. I don’t think I could afford to play during the winter season but was definitely worthwhile with TeeOff deal rate. Great experience overall!

Great Golf Course!

Longbow is a great golf course. It is challenging but fair. The course was in excellent condition even though we had record high temperatures. They had coolers filled with water bottles every 3 holes. That was such a great service especially since it was 110 degrees.

Perfect experience

I don’t write many golf reviews. I’ve played every course in the valley, both summer and winter, and right now for this time of year the course is in premium conditions. Greens rolled true, not many burnt out pieces of grass, and most holes offer a variety of different shots. Most par 3s are short aside from the last of the day but pin placements can be difficult. Par 4 are different around the course with a drivable par 4 on the front 9 and some that play around 450 throughout (depending on tees of course). Par 5s are scorable but definitely honest. To shoot a good score it certainly takes some good shots, but overall love how every hole presents a unique challenge. The only downside of the course is the lack of shade. Definitely recommend a late afternoon round or early morning in the summer, but for the lack of shade the course certainly is kept in good shape. Great for the price. Tee’d off at 5:47 pm on a Wednesday and played 18 by 7:39. Sprinklers came on at 7:30 so I would suggest going out at 5:30 at the latest.
