Anthem Golf & Country Club (Persimmon)

Anthem Golf & Country Club offers 36 holes of championship golf designed by Greg Nash. Exercise every aspect of your Anthem golf game on our sprawling courses featuring dramatic elevations, great views, multiple bunkers and large undulating greens all set against a mountainous, Sonoran desert backdrop. The Persimmon Course, which opened to rave reviews in 1999, features elevation changes from 50 feet to 300 feet. Perhaps the most notable is the final stretch of holes 15 through 18 that makes for a strong finish. A Member favorite is the 581-yard (from the tips), par-5 No. 16 whose plateau fairway is cut in half by a wash, while a bunker bisects the greenside fairway. The preferred tee shot will land on the right side of the fairway to allow a strong second shot to roll onto the green. An errant shot to the left side of the green will not hold, and the ball will likely find the bunker.
