Lil’ Wick ☆ Follow

Li'l Wick is a nine-hole par-3 short course at Wickenburg Ranch, located approximately one hour northwest of Phoenix in Wickenburg, Arizona. The course features 1,240 yards from the longest tees with a par of 27, and is characterized by championship-quality bentgrass greens and fairways. Opened in 2016, the course was designed by the team behind the award-winning Big Wick championship course and maintains similarly high playing standards.

The layout spans 18 acres through a picturesque canyon setting and showcases sophisticated green complexes with significant bunkering and mounding. Par-3 holes range from approximately 138 yards average up to 187 yards from the back tees, with three sets of tees accommodating various skill levels. Four of the nine holes feature lighting for evening play. The course emphasizes creativity and entertainment, with unique design elements including bunkers positioned behind some tees that allow players to practice long bunker shots.

Li'l Wick differentiates itself through its entertainment-focused atmosphere, with music broadcast across the course through speaker systems and "chill zones" with seating areas and hammocks between holes. The Watering Hole bar and grill serves as the focal point of the layout, positioned centrally within the course. The relaxed dress code and flexible playing format encourage a social experience alongside competitive golf, making it distinct from traditional championship courses in the region.
