First Time Playing

Decent layout but needs some work.

The course is very scoreable but the maintenance of the course needs some attention. Was very patchy and didn’t look like it had any water is a while. If your looking at getting out for a day just to have some fun and play golf and you’re a beginner I would recommend if for you just for the price, but if your an average or better golfer I would put your money elsewhere.

Excellent course for a beginner.

This is my first time playing, other than the driving range. very nice course for beginners. Mostly light rolling hills with slight elevation changes. Fairways are on the narrow side. Course greens are well taken care of. This course provided an excellent first time out!

Excellent Muni

Silverbell is one of 5 muni courses in Tucson. The course is wide open, very playable and in good shape. Fairways were decent but greens were very slow. Not cut in a while. Course offers challenges for all level golfers. I enjoy Silverbell.

Pick up the Pace

When you have to wait on every tee box it takes some of the pleasure out of the game. The pace of walking for golf is a brisk pace to and from your cart. Putts should be lined up while you are waiting so you are ready to putt when it is your turn. Putt continuously until you hole out. Soft spikes don't hinder someone else's line. In the fairway be ready to hit when it's your shot. If a round of golf can be played in three hours or less with all members of the foursome walking in New Zealand golf ing, it should not take four and a half hours here using golf carts. Also, if you've taken twice the par number of shots, pick up your ball, get out of the way and move on.. What ever happened to calling the group behind to play their tee shots once all players are on the green on par three holes? Golf should be exercise as well as a game of skill. Enough said. Thank you.

Worth the money!

It is definitely worth the money. There are dry spots everywhere but the greens and the tee boxes are in good shape. The staff was awesome. The starter was very professional and helped us as best he could. We were going to be late so I phoned and the lady I talked to was very nice and told us she would get us in when we got there. We have played this course multiple times and we’ll definitely go back. If you are looking for a pristine good course for $40 don’t go there. I would recommend going as you will have a great time.

Quick round, course decent, traps rock hard

3h50m round. Course wide open and in decent shape, though greens a little long and a bit slow. Traps very hard. Staff very friendly, but starter directed us toward driving range that had just closed for the day.

Nice Course, But...

have played Silverbell plenty of times, so I know what I am getting. Like the layout; however, the one area that needs improvement are the bunkers. There is no sand in the bunkers; it is hardpan. Other than the bunkers, enjoyed the course.
