The award-winning, 36-hole Superstition Mountain Golf & Country Club announced that it will make one golf course each day available for “Member-for-a-Day” starting times through the addition of a new membership plan that allows for daily fee play. The second course will remain exclusive for permanent member play. Golf course use for the two membership categories will rotate daily between The Prospector and Lost Gold layouts. Until now the prestigious 11 year-old private club, located east of Phoenix at the base of the Superstition Mountains, has been exclusively available to members and their guests.

“We’re excited to introduce Superstition Mountain Golf and Country Club to both local and national golf enthusiasts that appreciate world class Arizona golf at its finest,” said Doc Belitz, Vice President of Operations for OB Sports Golf Management. “Golfers playing Superstition Mountain will experience the incredible conditions and ambiance of one of the nicest private clubs in the entire Southwest. Adding the Member-for-a-Day option gives us the ability to ensure the club’s future, and at the same time showcase our incredible golf courses and clubhouse to prospective members. And with full golf memberships starting at $15,000, there has never been a better time to play or join Superstition Mountain Country Club.”

Starting times are available and current rates will range from $120 to $180, ($90 to $110 for Arizona residents). Starting time reservations can be made by calling the golf shop at 480.983.1411. Membership opportunities are also available with initiation fees starting as low as $15,000 for a full golf membership.

In the current economic climate, the creation of more accessible forms of membership have quickly become an industry-wide trend as clubs look for additional revenue sources outside of member play.

Superstition Mountain Golf Club features two Nicklaus Design golf courses, The Prospector and Lost Gold.
Prospector, created by Jack and Gary Nicklaus, was the first course to open in this 870-arce master planned community in 1998. This classic 18-hole layout is surrounded by extraordinary views of the Superstition Mountains. One of the most striking features of the 7,185-yard Prospector course is an oasis-like water feature that extends the length of the 18th hole. This magnificent finishing hole is set in an amphitheater-type setting with the Superstition Mountains at your back and the beautiful clubhouse ahead.

Prospector has been the host course of the 2002 Countrywide Tradition tournament and the home of the LPGA Safeway International from 2004 to 2008.

Lost Gold, created by Jack and Jackie Nicklaus, is a links-styled course that presents a different set of challenges for golfers than the Prospector. Open since 1999, Lost Gold completes the Superstition Mountain trail while weaving through magnificent desert terrain explored centuries ago by conquistadors in search of the Cities of Cibola. This 18-hole desert layout plays to a challenging 7,351-yards. The front nine of Lost Gold is laid out with several parallel fairways separated by moderately bunkered corridors. The back nine opens out into the desert where the view of the ever-present Superstition Mountains is even more commanding.

Superstition Mountain Golf Club has hosted a number of LPGA and Champion’s TOUR events over the past decade and has received numerous industry awards, including Golfweek magazine recently naming the Prospector Golf Course as one of the “Top 100 Residential Courses” in America.
