Whirlwind Golf Club- Devil's Claw
publicWhirlwind Golf Club's Devil's Claw Course is the more dramatic of the two Gary Panks designs at Whirlwind on the Gila River Indian Community land in Chandler. Named for the spiny desert plant native to the Gila River basin, Devil's Claw is considered the harder and more target-oriented of the two Whirlwind courses — longer from the tips, with more severe desert waste areas and demanding forced carries over desert scrub. The course plays through a rugged Sonoran Desert landscape with saguaro forests, desert washes, and the natural topography of the Chandler desert floor. South Mountain and the Estrella Mountains frame the western horizon. Like the Cattail Course, Devil's Claw benefits from the facility's strong conditioning standards and the competitive pressure of Whirlwind's regional reputation. Golfers commonly play both Whirlwind courses on the same trip.
Devil's Claw was designed by Gary Panks and opened simultaneously with the Cattail Course in 1999 as part of the Gila River Indian Community's Whirlwind Golf Club development. Panks intentionally designed the two courses with different personalities — Cattail emphasizing natural wetland wash aesthetics, Devil's Claw embracing harsher desert terrain and higher difficulty. Together they established Whirlwind as one of the Phoenix metro's premier 36-hole public facilities.
