Course Manners

Should institute a ban on people playing music through their phone. We got matched up with a golfer who had poor etiquette, smoked, talked too much and had music. Maybe he'll read this review.

The course needs signage between holes. If one is not familiar with course, it is not always obvious where the next hole is. We had a twosome in front of us who waited to hit in most holes until the people in front were putting although they could not hit very far

Course Condition Awful - Should have been Warned Before Booking

This Review is only for this last round I played and not the course under normal operations. I have played Pusch Ridge many times and love the course, But I should have been warned prior to booking that course hasn't been watered for weeks because they were closing for summer and that was last day open - it was virtually unplayable. I'm mad that I paid almost $40 for each for me and my playing partner for 9 holes. There were dozens of courses in Tucson we could have played for less than that, but I told them this is a great 9 hold course. Highly Disappointed.

Thank You,

Fred

Unacceptable course conditions

I understand it was the last day of the season. But the staff openly told me after I checked in that the course hadn’t been maintained in well over a week. Tee boxes were basically dirt. Couldn’t even get a tee in the ground on half of them. If you’re going to close for the season and still charge $38 for nine holes on the last day, the course should have acceptable conditions. Otherwise close the course the day you stop maintaining it. Complete waste of time and money.

Beautiful background…not so pretty grounds

Played at the El Conquistador Tucson, A Hilton Resort Pusch Ridge golf course and came away with mixed feelings. The scenery and mountain views were absolutely stunning — easily the highlight of the experience. It also wasn’t crowded, which made for a relaxing pace of play.

Unfortunately, the course conditions didn’t match the beautiful setting. The course was extremely dry, the fairways lacked life, and the greens were far too fast to be enjoyable. The bunkers were especially disappointing — unswept and packed down hard as concrete, making them difficult to play from and clearly not well maintained.

Overall, the peaceful atmosphere and breathtaking scenery saved the round, but the actual course conditions left a lot to be desired.

Wanted more money or to double pay

Older gentleman in the Pro shop said I needed to pay again and that fees paid thru GolfNow app are only to hold the Tee time so I cancelled what I paid in the app for refund and paid again. I even explained to him that I never have to pay again after I’ve already booked using this app.

Overbooked

They had to many golfers, each hole has three sets of golfers, so slow loose your rhythm. Didn't seem like they cared about the golfers just want more money. Not a fun day
