Sonoran Course at Omni Tucson National Golf Resort & Spa

I have played Omni a few times in the last year and would play it more often if not for the loose ends.

When I arrived yesterday my round was to include balls at driving range. When I arrived at range there were six stations set up for members only and no balls at any of the other positions.

My last two rounds I’ve played when I finished there was no one at cart station. I left a $20 tip in the jar on my last trip before the round and nobody was there to wipe down clubs remove bag from cart etc.

Great course Loose Ends

Played the Sonoran course, & enjoyed playing with a member. For other positives, the layout was nice, and all staff were friendly & kind. Regarding constructive criticism, some of the tee boxes were in rough shape, & some of the greens were not that great, with patchy brown spots. For the higher price, compared to other local courses, and knowing the really good reputation (prior to playing), I was a bit disappointed. However, will play again when I can try the Catalina side.

Course and staff are great but we had a group spending over 15 minutes looking for balls multiple times and they were over 3 holes behind the group in front of them. They need a Marshall that does something besides just drive around in a cart.

As the ratings indicate, overall it’s a fine course. Fairways are a little thin and greens a little bumpy, but that’s a function of this time of year in Tucson. What is unacceptable as a pace of play of five hours at three in the afternoon. if you’re going to put players out at 10 minute intervals, you need to have a pace of play Ranger on the course. Standing around waiting to hit shots for 10 minutes takes away a lot of the enjoyment of the course.

Played in PM at a discounted rate, which made it worth while. Staff very welcoming, great practice facilities. Course in immaculate condition. Greens great pace and rolled very true.

Only a few memorable holes. Greens very firm,

Usually need to land 10yrs less than pin yardage. Arizona National much more scenic, elevation changes and challenging.

Most rain on one day in 110 years!

Course drained pretty well until the afternoon. Staff was great. Cart path only made the day a bit long. But all in all a great course even in the rain.

Great course. Definitely senior pro ready.

Hard on cart path only during this time of year but still great.

Always a good change of pace to play here in the desert. Seems like they’ve let some spots in a few fairways get away from them and go to dirt patches. Some odd water standing areas as well. Hopefully it’s all a result of the overseed process and it’ll be back to the perfection it was in the past. Still a great joint, good team and classic layout

The course is a beautiful course which I recommend to everyone EXCEPT HANDICAP TO PLAYERS. Before playing I told the starter I use a Handicap Flag when I play. I asked questions about the course and he said it should not be a problem and I was given no options. I found out during play that they block anyone from getting closer than roughly 100 yards from the green on every green unless you get on the cart path. This is not what a handicap player should have to do. I am fighting cancer, have a rod on n my leg and a am 72 years old. I struggled greatly to finish. I found out afterwards that they have a way to turn the carts off so that a cart can get close to the green. The starter was a complete jerk for not helping me out in this situation. I am seriously telling anybody that uses a handicap flap to make sure you are treated correctly, as they must not care if someone suffers or died because of this.

I give 0 stars for empathy to handicap players. DONT PLAY AT ALL.
