Arnold Palmer Course

CA, United States

The Arnold Palmer Signature Course at Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California, is a desert layout designed by Arnold Palmer himself in 1978, marking his inaugural design in the region. Playing at 6,834 yards, the course features rolling fairways with numerous doglegs and strategic driving holes that challenge golfers of all skill levels while remaining fundamentally fair. The design combines aesthetic desert vistas with strategic play, characteristic of Palmer's architectural philosophy. The course is lined with Tifway 419 Bermuda fairways and Tiffdwarf greens, with Bermuda rough. Throughout the 18 holes, water hazards and strategic bunkering come into play on multiple holes, including notable par 3s at holes 4, 7, and 11, and challenging par 4s and par 5s that demand precise shot-making. Signature holes such as hole 8, a short par 4 with water right and tiered greens, and hole 12, another demanding par 4 with water and sand throughout, exemplify Palmer's strategic design philosophy. The course's layout emphasizes proper positioning off the tee and accurate approach shots, making it both accessible and rewarding for skilled players.
