Improved course conditions.

Core conditions have improved from several weeks ago. Greens are rolling well. Some issue with fringe around greenside trap on Anza 7. Seems they are keeping everything watered even during these very very hot days.

Maintenance

The only issue we had on Monday is that maintenance workers were soaking the greens while we were attempting to play. Those greens should be watered the night before or the early morning BEFORE golfers start playing. It's actually rude and unprofessional for Tubac course to have workers out while golfers are out.

Course and Staff Great

I love this course. It is wide enough and open to keep you in play and you have to think about your shots off the tee.

I would say that the course is kinda confusing in terms of layout and driving it can get a little wonky at times.

Fun Course

It was a nice day to play, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. My wife and I were joined by a fun couple, and we had a lot of fun. It was also fun to see holes featured in Tin Cup, and we even watched the movie again that evening.

Fun course

I like the layout of this course and the history. Staff is friendly and amenities are very clean. My only complaint would be the charge for spectator. Is very high. I have to remember to just pay for an extra player which is about the same price for spectator.

Course conditions improved

Tubac Golf course has suffered a bit over the last few months due to a severe water shortage. Recent rains have certainly helped and the greens are now in good shape and fairways are seeing more grass. Reseeding of Anza is still underway but should be ready soon and then I believe they will close Otero for similar maintenance. Traps are in need good sand, but still it is a great layout.
