This course is always in good shape.

S. Ranch is an excellent winter-in-Tucson golf course.

Great course in north Tucson

My wife and I like this course. It's challenging in windy conditions, but the greens are excellent, the pace of play is usually fast, and the layout is above average.

cool Sunday golf

We played on a cool Sunday when the course was not busy. The starter let my wife and I out by ourselves. The pace of play was excellent. The greens are very rough. Some of the fairways are under repair, but the layout is excellent, and golf is golf. We had a nice day.

A beautiful AZ day

My wife and I enjoy playing this course as it has a wide choice of tee boxes. The fairways are not overseeded on all holes...play winter rules if this bothers you. The greens are OK but suffer from a bit of "wild" grass...probably from the overseeding. It's not a big problem. The staff is friendly and encourages fast play.

Walked

This updated course is worth a look

This is an older course with mature trees, narrow fairways and elevated greens. The rough areas are hard-pan. The greens are mounded, "hard", and somewhat fast. I found the course interesting and challenging; my wife had trouble with her approach shots rolling off the green.

tough little beauty

Pusch Ridge is a mostly uphill course playing to elevated, small, fast greens. It demands you adjust your club selection accordingly. It is in better shape than prior years. If you miss the green, be prepared to do a lot of hilly walking.

Beautiful but biting

Starr Pass has a reputation for being difficult. In our opinion, it was. My wife and I are average golfers and decided to give it a try. Forced carries and elevation changes occur on nearly every hole. We enjoyed our day and had some good holes, but by the end of the round we decided the course won.

windy/wet daiy

The course did not have our golf now confirmation # so I would recommend printing the copy. Only the white course was available for carts...OK shape considering the recent rains and wind.

A change of pace in Oro Valley

We like this course because it has a bit wider fairways and a little less desert. The greens putt true. The people are friendly. It's worth the drive.

beautiful course, excellent condition

This is a beautiful course set against the Catalina's with some interesting elevation changes. The greens are large and in great shape. The sand traps are well placed and also in good shape. If you can get a good rate, don't miss it.

Busy course south of Tucson

This is a busy course south of Tucson in Green Valley. The greens are a bit thin and bumpy, but the fairways are wide and the rough easy to play out of at this time of year. We usually meet really nice people here. If the day is windy, the course is difficult.

beautiful January day in Arizona

This is an excellent course set against the Catalina's. The practice facilities are excellent. Even with a frost delay, we played at a good pace. The greens and fairways are in good to excellent condition. Some of the greens were a bit bumpy...deer and pig tracks?? I like the variety their tee boxes provide...easier to quite difficult. We had a nice day.

beautiful but sneaky

My wife and I have played this course many times. It always surprises us how difficult it is to score here. The course is in great shape. The "views" are wonderful. The greens are challenging. It is worth the money.

Great Northern MN course

My wife and I play here several times/year. The Legend and the Quarry are always fabulous experiences. Weather matters here, so be sure of conditions before you book. Early and late season offer the best values. We wish Golf Now could secure more "hot deal" times.
