Sonoran Course at Omni Tucson National Golf Resort & Spa
About
The Omni Tucson National Resort offers two championship courses that offer two distinctly different rounds. The Catalina Course, the resort's original course, offers a more traditional parkland layout while the Sonoran Course offers a challenging game of true desert golf. Although Catalina is the more famous of the two for hosting a number of PGA Tour events over the years, the Sonoran is just as formidable a test despite being 600 yards shorter than its sister course. Sonoran features a tricky, undulating terrain that is covered with 69 large, strategically placed bunkers. Two lakes come into play throughout the golf course as well. In addition to a number of challenging holes, the layout offers interesting risk-reward opportunities including drivable par 4s. One of the most notable holes is the 15th, a dramatic par 5 that requires a blind approach uphill to a bunkered green.

#16 plays fairly steeply uphill. I was 16 inches for a birdie, after hitting a solid 135 club from 109 out. Photo submitted by Jonathan5270953 on 08/14/2013

Super course
Would play again. I suffer from a bad back but found the course better on my back than most.
Nice course
Only a few memorable holes. Greens very firm,
Usually need to land 10yrs less than pin yardage. Arizona National much more scenic, elevation changes and challenging.
Rain Day
Most rain on one day in 110 years!
Course drained pretty well until the afternoon. Staff was great. Cart path only made the day a bit long. But all in all a great course even in the rain.
Great course. Definitely senior pro ready.
Hard on cart path only during this time of year but still great.
Catalina course
Always a good change of pace to play here in the desert. Seems like they’ve let some spots in a few fairways get away from them and go to dirt patches. Some odd water standing areas as well. Hopefully it’s all a result of the overseed process and it’ll be back to the perfection it was in the past. Still a great joint, good team and classic layout
Handicap players
The course is a beautiful course which I recommend to everyone EXCEPT HANDICAP TO PLAYERS. Before playing I told the starter I use a Handicap Flag when I play. I asked questions about the course and he said it should not be a problem and I was given no options. I found out during play that they block anyone from getting closer than roughly 100 yards from the green on every green unless you get on the cart path. This is not what a handicap player should have to do. I am fighting cancer, have a rod on n my leg and a am 72 years old. I struggled greatly to finish. I found out afterwards that they have a way to turn the carts off so that a cart can get close to the green. The starter was a complete jerk for not helping me out in this situation. I am seriously telling anybody that uses a handicap flap to make sure you are treated correctly, as they must not care if someone suffers or died because of this.
I give 0 stars for empathy to handicap players. DONT PLAY AT ALL.
Good course but over priced for summer
Staff was friendly and it included range balls but $70 for summer rates was wAy too much for this course. Many holes were very similar with left to fight slope and lost if bunkers and large green with many undelatuons. Just thought over priced compared to several top courses I played at much less. A bit disappointed fir the price.
Tucson National going down hill
Lots of bare spots on fairways. Greens aerated late and still bouncy. Members r very rude. Won’t go back til I hear back from others. Sad. Was once the pride of NW Tucson
