Fred Enke Golf Course

I like the course but unfortunately it was very backed up I only played 9 of 18 I paid for. . They need a Marshall to speed up play .

The course was in great shape.

Pace of play is another story. Group in front of us walked and slowed things up. we waited on every tee box and fairway for every hole. started backing groups behind us also. Never did see a marshal. not really a walking course because some of the distances between green to next tee box.

other that issue everything else was great.

Would play it again.

The course is set up well, but the play was slow started at 130 had to skip a hole because 4 some in front had a 3 maybe 4 year old playing on the greens. I'm not against kids on course but he was to young and they had to chase him around . So I completed 17 holes just as sun going down .

Overall positive first impression despite waiting on almost every hole. Course is in decent shape although showing effects of care-less golfers (divots. ball marks, traps, etc.). Front nine is flat and fairly mundane, but the back nine features elevation changes, imaginative layout, and a concrete cart path that elevates it above Muni status. For first-timers, course map on scorecard is helpful, but better signage is needed - especially on front nine where cart path often meanders through the desert. Staff was friendly and courteous - especially gal driving the beverage cart. This is what excellent customer service looks like!

Played with my wife and another couple. Pace of play was very comfortable. Had to wait a few times, but that is to be expected. Greens were very firm, fast and true, but a well struck shot held as it should.

Fairways were nice, first cut was dry, but played well.

Will play again!!

First time playing at Enke in a couple of years. Overall the course was in good condition however on this day pin placement was an issue. It just never seemed to be in a flat part of the green. Tee boxes are not flat and the rough is cut too thin so nothing holds. Pace of play was pretty good 4 hours and 15 minutes.

No houses on the course, interesting layout, but make sure you play the right tees. I played a set too far forward and quite a few times drove right through the fairway into lost ball territory.

Such a beautiful course setting, interesting to play, but the golfing public leave evidence of their complete disregard for, or ignorance of, golfing etiquette.

Not sanding a divot in the fairway, not repairing a ballmark on the green, or not raking a trap, are all evidence of their lack of regard for the course, as well as the golfer that comes behind them. Yet nowhere did I see signage reminding people of these basics

of golf protocol. IT IS VERY MUCH NEEDED!

Don't blame covid and a staffing shortage...I'm talking about things the golfer can do to make this a 5 star public course.

The fairways where in good shape. The greens rolled consistent and in great shape.

We were very happy to play this course again after one year break ,nicely kept greens and aver all beautiful .

Will be back soon

The course is in very good conditions except for the cart paths. The group in front of us was extremely slow which was frustrating. Other than that, very good day.

A true desert course. Stray and you're wrestling cacti and that's not fun. Greens will remain very good as long as people remember to fix their ball marks. Come on people. Great variety in types of holes. Beginning golfers should not attempt this course unless they have lots of balls to lose. The cart lady was wonderful and the clubhouse people were very hospitable. Thank you.

Expect 4 to 4 1/2 hours to play but new management and wet summer means better than average conditions. First Green is fastest (you are warned). Otherwise, they are very challenging (often more break than it looks). It is my favorite course right now - the best buy in Tucson.

It was very heartening to see Fred Enke in such good condition. As the only true desert track among the five city courses, it has always been my favorite. It has character. Today, the greens were as nice as I've seen them in a very long time, and fast, too. Sunday pin placements provided for a much higher degree of difficulty. It was fun. I was also very impressed by the condition of the bunkers. The grounds crew has certainly devoted plenty of time to them. They are often pits of hard pan with dried rivulets of erosion throughout. Not today, though. I would have preferred not to have found them, but since I did, it was a pleasure to play out of good, consistent ones with evenly distributed sand for a change. I was fortunate to have found the fairway often this round, and did not draw a bad lie on any of them. The same can be said about the fairways that I missed. The rodents aren't out this time of year, but I commented to my playing partner that the residual damage that has pervaded the course for years was nowhere to be seen this time. I congratulate management and staff for the fine job they've done preparing the course for this peak season, and correcting and/or improving on its traditional flaws.
