The Short Course at Mountain Shadows

The Short Course at Mountain Shadows is a par 3 in Scottsdale, Arizona.

This course originally opened in 1961 under the design vision of Arthur Jack Snyder, but it was recently redesigned by his mentee, Forrest Richardson. Richardson’s design efforts received a prestigious “Renovation of the Year” nod from Golf Inc. Golf.com also highlighted The Short Course as one of the “Best Par-3 Courses in America.”
