Welcome!
Hi everyone,
Can you believe that next month marks my six month anniversary with Desert Aire? I want to thank all of the customers and employees who have been so supportive and welcoming. Trust me, I realize the transition could have been much more difficult. Instead, your encouragement and kindness have been truly heartwarming. Thank you!
As we are hitting summer mid-stride, we hope you are all staying cool during these triple digit days. We’re doing our best to get water down on the courses, but it has been a challenge. We thank you also for your understanding – this time of year is tough on turf.
We’re still working on updating the course web sites. I cannot wait until they are ready to be unveiled!
Have you seen our signs on Avenue P? I think they look great – shout out to Printing Boss for their great work!
Thanks to all who have reached out with questions/comments. Please continue to do so by sending us feedback via your digital receipt.
Thank you for your support! And please let us know if there is anything we can do to help improve your golfing experience.

Tips from Our Pro
A quick question:
Do you struggle with distance off the tee due to over swinging or lack of flexibility? If so use this drill to remedy both.
Set yourself up as if you’re about to hit a drive / flip your club upside down in your lead hand – trail hand on your hip. Take swings as you normally would but listening for the swish sound…Which should come after the ball to ensure you are hitting through the ball and not at it.
If you accomplish this task as Makayla has here you will end up with an incredibly balanced finish. 15 minutes in the morning – 15 minutes at night and viola swing speed increased – flexibility improved!
