The Round
The Journey at Anthem Country Club
I.
The Opening
Two par 4s open the round before the first par 5 arrives at the 3rd. The front nine then changes pace quickly, with par 3s at the 4th and 6th either side of the par-4 5th. The routing crosses natural desert terrain in the foothills of Black Mountain, about 2,600 feet up, with dramatic elevation change throughout.
II.
The Middle
The 7th, a long par 4, is the No. 1 handicap, and it is followed by the 8th, a par 5 of more than 640 yards and the longest hole on the course. The 9th, another par 4, closes the front nine. The back nine starts with two par 4s, the second of them, the 11th, rated No. 4, and reaches its first par 5 at the 12th.
III.
The Finish
The closing six mix all three pars. The 14th is the shortest hole on the card and the 17th the second back-nine par 3, with the 16th, the longest par 4 on the course, between them. The round ends on a par 5, the 18th, completing two par 5s and two par 3s on each nine. Six lakes, waterfalls, canyons and 65 bunkers are spread across the layout.
How to Play It
Anthem Country Club — Playing Strategy
Beginner / High Handicap
There are five sets of tees on every hole, so choose the one that keeps the 8th, the longest hole on the card, a comfortable three-shotter. With six lakes and 65 bunkers on the course, target selection matters more than distance; on approaches, favor the side of the green away from the water.
Intermediate / Mid Handicap
The 7th, rated the hardest hole, comes right before the longest, the par-5 8th, so the middle of the front nine is where a card can come apart. Take bogey on the 7th if the approach is out of position, then play the 8th as three measured shots. The ball flies a touch farther at 2,600 feet, so check carries rather than trusting sea-level numbers.
Advanced / Low Handicap
Rated 73.6 with a 133 slope from the back, Anthem asks for long irons on its biggest par 4s, the 16th and the 7th and 11th. With the 8th a three-shot hole for nearly everyone, the other par 5s, the 3rd, 12th and 18th, carry the birdie chances, so those are the holes to be aggressive with the second shot.
