Just as late-season snow storms threaten to break your spring spirit, the San Jose Mercury News offers a comprehensive overview of Arizona's finest golf courses -- the ideal antidote to icy temps and frozen greens.
This story -- diary of an avid golfer with a delicious writing assignment -- tours us through Arizona's top-rated courses (4 ½ - 5 stars in Golf Digest). From the Raven Golf Club in South Mountain to Camelback in Scottsdale, we are teased and tempted with tales of red-rock canyons and lush green carpets. It's enough to make you Google "Phoenix, cheap tickets, this weekend."
