Travel story
Scottsdale in February: The Buddies Trip Blueprint
Sunshine, split tees and a very specific dinner order
Words by Marcus Santana
Scottsdale, USAFly in Thursday, play 36 Friday and Saturday, keep Sunday for a soft nine. The desert in February is the easiest sell in golf travel.
What we loved
- Reliable weather when the rest of the country is frozen
- Enormous range of green fees
- Everything is 20 minutes from Old Town
Know before you go
- Peak-season rates spike around the WM Open
- Desert lies punish anything offline
The verdict
Still the best-value big-group trip in North America if you avoid tournament week.
