Quarry Pines Golf Club

Great staff always a challenging course…good times!

Course was great but the tee times are too close together. For this tough course they should have ten minute + tee times. No beer cart but has a lot of rangers,

Played nice.

I arrived for my early morning tee time. I asked about hitting some range balls, but there is no practice range?? I found out later that an apartment complex was built in its place. Sadly, that makes the first couple to three holes a little challenging. That aside, I really loved the layout. I got to play with three great guys who knew the course well. The pin placements were challenging to say the least. Really made you plan out play around and on the greens. Tee boxes were all in great shape as well as the greens. The “sand” traps were more like compact wet dirt. But, that’s a Tucson thing, so I gotta give this place props that there weren’t many rocks in the traps like a lot of courses in and around Tucson.

The biggest challenge is that the greens really don’t hold at all, so plan on a lot of roll even with higher hit shots. Some of the greens are easier to read than others, make sure to read from both sides of the pin.

The back nine is beautiful with a out of scenic views, elevated tees and remnants of the quarry. It’s a must play for the back none for sure. The short par 3 on the back 9 is deceptively challenging if the pin is in the back. The drop off is intense and a brutal uphill putt. Conversely, if you go long and end up in the rough back of the green it’s a fast downhill, so an incredibly hard second shot to stick above the crest of the ridge. Escaping with a par is boast worthy. Two guys I played with four putted this green and one was a single digit handicap who broke 80.

All in all, great experience. Wish they had a driving range!

A lot to like about this course - well-organized bag drop, interesting routing thru the quarry, fairways and greens are in good shape. A few dislikes - lack of driving range, traffic noise on holes near I-10. Tees need tending and bunkers aren't great - but better than many local courses. Takes a few rounds to learn the reads and rolls. Worth the price on a hot deal!

The course was in great shape. A very challenging back nine!

Not one course marshall on a busy day in peak season. Waited for every shot including watching three foursomes tee off on #11 (par three). Very disappointed in the over 5 hour round.

12 of us played together

We all paid in pro shop

Starter said only 11 paid and 1 didn’t - but he was wrong.

So we are accused as being crooks.

Meanwhile we have spent $900 at the course.

After the round, the attendants are rude and complain about where we park carts.

No draft beer in clubhouse - only overpriced cans.

The course is fun - the staff are misguided and have no idea about running a customer focussed business..

They need a serious refocus….

Always make it a point to play this course when in the Tucson area.
