Enjoyable desert golf

Fun. Loved it. Hills and dales and desert. Good greens. A little rough around the edges, but lots of fun. Kind of quirky in a very enjoyable way. Nice scenery.

Great desert course

Fred Enke seems to be improving all the time. Greens are in good condition and maintenance is watering them. Staff is easy to work with and talk too. Just a really pleasant time at this course and it is not my first.

Very challenging course. City of Tucson needs to give this gem some tender loving care. They should bring it up to the standards of Randolph and Dell Urich.

Keep it in the fairway!

Great fast greens, good tees, and great rolling fairways. Just keep your drive in the fairway and out of the desert. Pay attention to the layout of each hole for best results.

True desert course

I really enjoyed this municipal course. My buddy and I liked the contours and the overall layout of the holes. Some other "city" courses here try to hide the desert aspect of the area. Fred Enke embraces the desert and does a good job incorporating the natural field in play.

Only problem was the fairway conditions. Which is to be expected for winter. Very enjoyable golf for the money. Being retired that is a help. Thanks Merry Xmas.

Tucson's most challenging city course.

Easily Tucson's most challenging city course. Lots of open desert. High lost ball potential. Beautiful grass. Fast greens.

THE WOMEN WHO WORKED THE PRO SHOP WAS A NASTY PERSON.... SHE COULD NOT BE MORE UN CUSTOMER FRIENDLY AND NASTY THAT WE WALKED OUT AND DID NOT PLAY...

THE WOMEN WHO WORKED THE PRO SHOP WAS NASTY CONDESCENDING AND A HER ATTITUDE CAUSED US TO WALK OUT AND GO PLAY AT ANOTHER COURSE....

I CANT UNDERSTAND HOW SHE IS WORKING AT A GOLF COURSE, SHE SHOULD LEARN HOW TO BE CUSTOMER FRIENDLY AND NOT BRING HER UNHAPPINESS FROM HER LIFE TO HER JOB.....

Course was in very good condition. Tees were set back (I guess they will be moved up for the weekend golfers).

Golf was great. Scoring left much to be desired - but that was the golfer.

Nice Target Course

This is definitely a course where accuracy matters more than distance. I used every club in my bag during my round. I'll definitely come back.

good $$ value, tough test of your target golf skills

Overall a decently maintained public course and infamous for its target golf style layout. Sprinkler went off during our round on hole #8 in the landing area of our tee-shots..but overall a good experience. bring plenty of golf balls if you target game is "off". The City of Tucson should keep this course alive if at all possible.

Decent deal for this time of year

Being that most courses are in the act of reseading or have just reseaded, the price tag was acceptable for full use of carts throughout the course. While the course is not in the best shape, it's not too bad. Overall it was a good experience for what was a wonderful day.

Course is in great shape!

I played Fred Enke on Oct 19. Teed off at 6:42am and finished just shy of 4 hours. Course is in awesome shape if you keep it in the fairway.
