Starr Pass is an all-star venue

These courses (27 holes) are first-rate. If you can snag a decent rate, you can have it all. Range balls, cart and great golf. Coyote is the most picturesque, Rattler has the best layout and Palmer is the most penal, at least for me because my miss is left...uh-oh.

Challenging but fun course

While this course is very hilly most of the fairways and greens are somewhat forgiving. The course staff were all very helpful and accommodating. The course was busy but not overcrowded and we played in a little under 4 hours. Very good experience and would definitely do it again.

Fun to play

We enjoyed the course and it was in good shape. However, it ended up being cart path only and neither the pro shop nor the starter told us. We found out when our cart died in the middle of the first fairway and told us we had to back out.

Not the old star pass!

The name changing to Palmer and moving some holes is a little confusing! The edges of the greens could use a little help!

Ce terrain est un zoo

Absolument le terrain le plus sauvage et désertique de Tucson.

Les conditions sont excellentes. Seulement quelques patch sur les abords de quelques verts.

On a rencontré beaucoup de chevreuils, cochons, road ruiner, Cotton tail.

Un must à Tucson
