Mesa Country Club has begun renovating its historic golf course – the club’s largest and most extensive investment since the William P. “Billy” Bell designed course opened in 1948.
For its 75th anniversary, the private golf club is undertaking a $10 million renovation that includes modernizing its irrigation system to help save an estimated 21 million gallons of water a year – or over 10% of its current water use.
“All the greens will be rebuilt to USGA standards, greenside bunkers will be renovated to improve playability, and we will undergo an exciting redesign of the holes on our ‘upper mesa,’ including the construction of a drivable par 4 that will be one of the most fun holes on the course,” said club President Neil Baier.
