Named for the Yavapal word for Four Peaks Mountain a jagged rock formation that looms over the course We Ko Pa lies on tribal land owned by the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation Since opening in 2001 this facility has catapulted to must play status thanks to its incomparable scenery and holes that zigzag artfully through canyons over ridges and down mountain slopes Free of water restrictions We Ko Pa features wide fairways and large greens for more authentic reminders of the desert There are no homes or roads along the courses and you won t find any out of bounds stakes out there either On the 7,225 yard Scott Miller designed Cholla Course you will find a 50 foot high boulder rising like a tombstone in the fairway of the 606 yard 10th while a small wall fronting the green at the 587 yard 8th neatly mirrors the shape of the Red Mountains in the distance The Saguaro Course deigned by Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore opened December 2006 It features more breathtaking views and is designed to be walkable a rarity in the desert This piece of land has some very interesting natural movement to it said Crenshaw of the new We Ko Pa course I think this golf course will be pretty unique for the desert People will be induced to play different shots and find solutions to new challenges when playing this course
