Silverbell Municipal Golf Course

I realize the new management team for the Tucson Muni courses has a hard row to hoe.
But i ask myself after trying Silverbell today why should I play here again? The greens are bumpy and the grass is more weeds than grass, the sand traps are gravel pits and often very wet, the pace of play is awful, and the fairways ned water.
For the same price I will play at Crooked Tree, Quarry Pines or the Ranch and play in much better conditions.
This is a minority opinion for the course was very busy today.
Why it was so busy is beyond me.

Fairways and greens were excellent traps were terrible with no sand hard clay. Deal at the clubhouse was better then deal on golf now!!!!!!!!!!!!! Had that happen twice in the last month why!!!!!?????

why does all these high handicap players play from tee boxes to far back for them.played in back of 4 guys who i could out drive 40 yrds playing from a tee farther back than me.5hr round unacceptable .screws the day up for everyone.played with my wife and a another couple and we had to wait 5min. on every hole.

The Fairways and Greens are in excellent shape and provide a great place to play. Since OBSports has taken over the course there has been a huge improvment. However, the one area that needs to be addressed is the bunkers. No sand but lots of mud. Since we have not had rain in over a week I cannot understand why there is mud in the bunkers.

Silverbell is a nice course for a municipal course. Nice selection of tee options and course was in nice shape. Greens were excellent, nice roll and speed. Course layout offers variety and some interesting shot selections. Will very likely play again. Only complaints are the rock hard bunkers and that sometimes it was confusing finding the way to next hole. Won't be a problem next time but confusing for first time players.

I had played here befor but the course was not in very good condition. I was pleasently suprized this time.
The Greens were the best I have played on in a long time here in the Tucson area. Good Job Staff.

dirt roughs. Dirt sand traps with huge rocks throughout. hard pan greens, all make this place one horrible experience. Count on course conditions to add 4-5 strokes to your handicap...........awful!

Very Pretty course, fairways & greens in very nice shape. The only thing we were disappointed in was lack of directions on the course. Very few signs showing next tee box and we got lost several times. Also, bunkers were like cement.

This is a public course, but my expectations were much higher. The greens were in poor condition grass was patchy. The fairways and green were the best on hole 18. The course restrooms are very dirty and looked as if they are not ever cleaned -- this is an issue since it is coed and I was afraid to touch anything.....

Heard this course was "nothing to write home about", a scruffy well trodden muni. Well to my surprise and after an hour frost delay we set out, paired with another local twosome for a most pleasurable round of unrushed golf. The course was in very good condition with the greens surprisingly quick even early in the day. A perfect walking layout with green to tee distance quite close. Plenty of sand to challenge your shot placement and water on several holes that definitely come into play. A refreshing change from the more common target desert courses. There was an abundance of bare rocky terrain between greens and tees that would have been nice to see planted with some native desert plants to let you know you are in southern Arizona. Keep up the good work as it seems the new management company is doing. I will surely return to Silverbell GC !!

Front 9 was great it took 1.5hrs. Did not even try to start the back 9 due to a large ladies group that was started on the back 9 when we were probably on the 6th or 7th hole. The back 9 would of taken probably 2.5 hours.

fun course, nothing special, greens are nice but looks like they mow front and back 9 on alternate days. Tees, fairways and surrounds were in nice shape. Come on people fix your ball marks and divets.

This place was in great shape a month ago. What happened? Bare spots everywhere, no rangers, and my biggest complaint is that the greens obviously hadn't been mown for several days. Very bumpy and slow.

The course was fine, the greens were fine, the weather was good but the round took 5 hours. When rounds take this long there is a problem at the front desk and this needs to change.

Staff outstanding. Very helpful. Fareways and greens in very good shape. Cart paths and sand traps need work. Need more ball washers. Senior tees need to be moved to shorten the course. Overall good experience.

I have to say that your greens are in horrible condition. The only green that did ot have brown interspersed was the 18th and I needed to be cut. The bunkers had no topsoil and as hard as a brick. The club would bounce rather than scoop the sand. Thank God I only was in one. Unforturately my partner was I more than that and had the same experience. Poor maintenance. The 19th hole was not even open at the time we teed off at Noon.

I wontbe back, and I have played the many times over the years.

I was thoroughly impressed with the condition of the course. The greens were the best I think I have ever seen them, and they were fast. Usually with the city courses the greens are slow and beat up. I tip my hat to the new management company that has taken over the course, they have worked wonders. My only complaint was the bunkers which are still in need of sand. Other than that I thought the course was in great shape.

Course conditions were good, greens excellent but sand traps a little sparse in places. Pace of play was excellent. Staff very friendly and helpful.

The course is in excellent condition except for the bunkers which are in bad condition.

Hve been playing Silver belle for the last 4 years it keeps improving every Year!
