GUR

GUR should stand for greens under repair. Very disappointing conditions on the greens. Pace of play was terrible and there were no marshals. The layout has never been a favorite but on previous visits conditions were quite good.

Great layout but…

The coyote course fairways were great but the greens were horrendous. Roadrunner was in good shape but it is the shortest of the 3. The other 9 is closed for overseeding. For $45, great views and a good practice facility. Since it isn’t season yet, I understand the overseeding and prepping but there needed to be mention of it on here that conditions were about 50%.

I bet it is gorgeous come November.

Coyote was cart path only. We had called to check on this issue and pro shop said carts were allowed. We would not have booked the course if we had known this. Greens were in very poor shape. Many dead areas and areas with cut outs of new grass. Very long route to get to 2nd nine, roadrunner. No cart or other warning signs around greens or other cart lock-out areas, cart was stuck 4 times on Roadrunner nine. Very frustrating to say the least. Never saw a Marshall on the course for assistance.

One of the best courses in Tucson. Had an 8AM tee time, starter let me go as a single at 715, off the course by 930, awesome morning. Greens were faster than usual but very good shape.

Starr Pass

By far my favorite course in Tucson. Probably one of my favorite courses all time. Just perfect conditions and beautiful scenery. Challenging design so get ready for some brutal shots but they are not stupid shots. Best greens in Tucson too.

Corporate Takeover

After Corporate Takeover this course is in need of much attention. As an example,the fringe on the greens are not being taken care of on many of the holes. It was so bad we played 9 holes instead if 18 and left. The staff has also changed for the worse.

A fun round, worth the price

It was hot and humid, typical for the date.

Starter friendly, helpful, explained we could play Coyote 9 (after Rattler 9) if we wanted. Since Coyote may be best of the three, we did, no waiting at all during entire round.

Conditions: excellent (too many unfixed ball marks but appeared recent, from that days play?).

Greens mid-speed, smooth, held nicely.

Some of the best fairways and bunkers in Tucson Clubhouse bar decent, resort prices.

Tough to go wrong, enjoyable golf.

First Time Playing

A true Golfers course!

Amazing course! First time playing, will definitely be back. A great target course, pay attention to the barber poles. Greens were phenomenal, rolled really pure. Couple of dried out spots, but that’s expected this time of the year. Will enjoy the next round even more with a little bit of course knowledge!
