About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Style Parkland
Par 71
Length 6435 yards
Slope 125
Rating 69.5

Tubac Golf Resort is home to 27 holes of golf that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The resort is most famously known for providing the set for the golf movie "Tin Cup." It was most likely chosen for its lush landscape of mature trees and cottonwood groves along with its dry, temperate climate. The Otero/Anza combination features some tricky water hazards. The par-3 ninth hole on the Anza nine has an island green similar to the notorious 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass. The ninth hole on the Otero nine features an expansive lake that runs alongside the left side of the green. In addition to the three golf courses, Tubac Golf Resort also features an extensive practice facility with a driving range, putting green, and practice bunker.

Resort Course with Fantastic Views

It was a perfect day on a great course. The course was in excellent condition and the pace of play was very good, finishing in under 4 hours. I enjoyed the bonus of seeing wildlife on a few holes with deer enjoying the long grass in the rough.

Tin Cup Experience

Watched the movie Tin Cup the evening prior to playing. We thought no way this could be in the desert community of Tubac. Pace of play was less than 4 hours. We played on a Monday around noon. Course conditions were very good. The greens on the front nine were not very receptive. Greens on the back nine were much better. The final four holes on the Rancho 9 were brutal.

The staff is very nice.

The price is really high to have a person ride with you. My wife likes to go and take pics of wildlife and things. The corse is in great shape as i would expect for the price.

Repair/Prepare the sand traps

For a 'resort" course the greenside and fairway bunkers were in terrible condition. Hard packed sand (if that's what it is), animal tracks and unraked footprints and shot divots everywhere. For a premium price I expect premium conditions.
