Silverbell Municipal Golf Course

okay for being a public course I guess, needs attention, however because its location next to a water treatment facility it stinks, literally. staff was cool, price was a little high for what it was, probably wont go back.

nice well maintained course. good value. got off on time and played steady without any hangups.

I have played Silverbell course maybe a dozen times over the last couple of years. Yesterday, Feb. 6, 2013, was the worst I have ever experienced. My tee time was for 1:13pm. I didn"t get to tee off until 2:10 !! There were no carts available and the staff were having to make excuses to some very hot-headed patrons. Some actually went back to the club house and got their money refunded. While the city has a nice course there,
they need to be sure that what is offered can be available to their golfers, There were maybe 15 to 20 carts in the cart shed waiting for repair (or replacement?). Needless to say I was disappointed with the whole mess. We barely got through our round when the horn blew at sunset. Hopefully this won't happen again and the city can rectify this problem.

Third time I have played this track, and I will play it again.

Course was generally in really good shape. The fairways & greens are in excellent condition. I found the sand traps needed maintenance and more sand.
All in all it was a good golfing experience and I will play there again.

It's close to where we live, a public course, and in good condition

Traps/bunkers could use some sand, overall OK for a public course. People great!

greens in great shape and putt very true, great course for all levels of ability

Long and flat but still a good test of golf. Silverbell has some of the best greens I've played so far in the Tuscon area, however, like other courses I've played so far, you need a lesson on how to hit out of the sand traps. Dirt and hard pan is a better discription for sand traps. I will play Silverbell again.

there was a lot of bird dew on the greens
the fairways were a litlle dry
the tee boxes were a little dry
the cart paths were very rough in places and they fixed a few
for the money at 30 dollars it's not a bad experience.
the traps had one big large rock that my partner hit but I found the traps good with just enough sand
the greens were fairly good except for the bird dew..

I was surprised that the course was such a good layout. The bunkers are strategically placed. The green contouring is great.
We played the white tees and found the length acceptable. I will play the course again on my next trip to Tucson. Also feel the course is a good couples course and is easily walkable.

Very hot day. Needed refreshment cart. The fountains on the course that did work had absolutely horrible tasting water

Greens were good - smooth and quite fast. Tees and fairways were OK, but bunkers were very poor.
Pace of play on the slow side.
Overall a very fair course - no blind shots and no surprises. Some holes are a little narrow, but some are quite wide.
Overall a forgiving course, but holes 16 and 17 are tough.
Stay out of the bunkers however - sand seems to be in short supply!

Nice course to play. In fairly good shape. Generally meet lots of nice golfers there. Long course from whites but not that much trouble.

Lots of distance on this course. Greens are good and the overall course is very playable....very good value

I come out to Tucson to visit family about once a year and this is my second time playing Silverbell. Got a smoking deal on Golfnow and played it on a very cold and windy day following some rain. Course conditions were excellent considering how much it rained the night before. We played lift, clean and place and only found a few spots with a little standing water and minimal mud. Some bunkers had a little standing water but that was expected.

I wish more courses were set up like Silverbell. It is a long, demanding course that requires length off the tee and precise approach shots if you plan to score. What it also has that most courses lack are continuous fairways and very few forced carries. The greens were a little slow the day we played but that was welcomed as they decided to throw alot of Sunday pin placements on us. With the pins we had, the course probably played three or four strokes harder.

Overall, this isn't high-end resort golf but it is about as good as it gets for a Muni track.

1:13 tee time, had to wait for cart availabilty, and needed course sheriff to speed up play

The course is long but is in pretty good shape, and a great bargain. It is certainly walkable, although most people take carts. Play gets backed up on the par threes - in fact we quit at 16 because of the backup.

Good city course. Well maintained with a friendly staff.

Worth the price paid on Golf Now. Regular rates too stiff for they quality of the golf course, it is the winter season so that made getting out of the rough a little easier..
