Which golf course to play?

I need a recommendation between Sun Ridge and Gold Canyon golf courses. Has anyone played these courses? What is best about one over the other? These two courses are our final choices for our last day of golfing and we can't decide which one.

I'm open to suggestions. Which courses did you play and rank them please? We want to play all desert courses. Thanks.

I haven't played the course, but Gold Canyon is in a very nice site next to the Superstition Mountains

The trip we took was a surprise for my husband's 50th. So I researched which courses were supposed to be the best public ones that we could get tee times on. I came up with Troon North, TPC Scottsdale as the two best, and then he also golfed at Eagle Mountain because it was right near where we stayed. He had an amazing time at all three courses. We are from the pacific northwest so these courses were all great compared to a lot of the courses he plays up here. They were all great for different reasons. He said that Troon North was probably the best for how beautiful the course and the scenery were, but the TPC Scottsdale he loved also because that he said was where he felt the most spoiled . The price includes a caddy, which he had never had before, he said that was awesome! Also, Eagle Mountain he said was a great course to play also, it was less expensive and also very pretty, and a little bit more forgiving than the other two. He would recommend all three. It just depends what your looking for and how much you want to spend?

Also, I have to say that I'm not sure what area of Arizona your looking at? The ones that my husband played were all in the Scottsdale area. Hope I can help.

We are staying in Scottsdale, but willing to travel in the surrounding area.
