Playing golf in Arizona offers unique experiences. The weather allows for year-round golfing. With low humidity and numerous courses, players have many options.
One interesting aspect of golfing in Arizona is the chance of wildlife encounters. Golfer Mike Rodenbush, known as Mikey TeeTimes, recently experienced this. While creating content for his followers, he encountered a herd of javelinas. These resilient mammals are common in Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas.
“We’re still trying to figure out the right formulation in the chili oil we put out. It’s a delicate thing for the grass,” said Dave Bisbee, general manager at Seven Canyons Golf Club.
Javelinas sometimes disrupt golf courses while foraging. A particularly hot summer a few years ago resulted in significant damage to a northern Arizona golf course. Seven Canyons Golf Club used chili oil to deter them after coyote urine proved ineffective.
In this case, the animals made an unexpected but peaceful crossing of the golf cart path. No damage occurred.
Encounters like these add an element of surprise to golfing in Arizona, making it a unique experience.
