Talking Rock names new Director of Golf

Talking Rock, a private, luxury home community located in Prescott, has named a new Director of Golf to oversee its 7,350 yard, Jay Morrish designed course. Steve Talentino is a Class “A” member of the Professional Golfers Association (PGA), and also brings nearly 25 years of golf operations experience.

Talentino joins Talking Rock from the Desert Troon Companies where he spent nearly 15 years as head golf professional at high-end courses, including Hassayampa Golf Club in Prescott, Torreon Golf Club in Show Low, and Cimarron Hills Country Club in Austin, Texas. Prior to his time with Desert Troon, Talentino served as director of instruction at Arizona Country Club, and before that as a member of the golf staff at Arizona Biltmore in Phoenix.

Speaking of his previous Prescott residency and member of its golf community, Talentino says “I’m excited to return to Prescott as the director of golf at Talking Rock and begin my relationship with The True Life Companies and Harvard Investments.” He continues, “It is a return home for me because the city holds a special place, marking not only the start of my head professional career, but also my family.”
