3.5 starsThis review is for the permanent disc golf course that is also located on this ball golf course. The address is somewhat misleading as the entrance is actually off of Rudasill. It will cost you $10 to play 18. You can rent a golf cart for $5 for up to 2 people riding.This course is great for long arms. There isn't a short basket on the whole course. Hence for me, who does not possess a long arm, 3.5 stars. It will take you longer to play than on a dedicated disc golf course if you do not rent a cart. There really are not many obstacles for long arm throwers. Yes, there are trees, but there are fairways, and this course is excellent for honing your fairway drives. There is a water hazard for two of the baskets and if your disc lands in the drink, you can go to the clubhouse, plunk down a deposit, and use the golden retriever (which is actually white, in this case). The club forbids anyone from going into the water, so please respect that.A plus is that there is grass. The website shows pictures of beautiful green grass, but it isn't quite that spectacular. And there still is some dirt around. There is a club house so you can buy drinks and snacks. There is a water fountain to fill up your H2O bottle. And there are clean restrooms.One of the rules that the local disc club has for this course is that all the greens are Out of Bounds (OB). I'm sure they have a good reason. I haven't researched it on the PDGA site, but maybe there is a universal rule for it. I think it is silly. That means that for just about every basket on this course, there is an OB, right by the basket. It's not like disc golfers are going to ruin the greens by walking on it or throwing from it. There are not going to be drives but putts made from a green. So I think it is a silly rule.They hold tournaments here, so the local disc-ers must like it. I'm sure that there are plenty of disc golfers that would give this 4 or even 5 stars. A couple of my friends would. I just don't like paying to play. I don't like getting behind ball golfers and having to wait as it takes them longer to play the hole than it does for us to play the basket. The ball golfers are respectful and friendly, don't get me wrong, I just don't like sharing a course with them.Even my long arm buddies don't get too many birdies on this course: I don't get any. There are a couple of baskets where it might be possible and I've come close, just missing my medium or long putt.My recommendation is to give it a try. Maybe you will like it way more than I enjoy it. If you are a disc golfer in Tucson, you have to try it at least once.

This is not a golf course. Period. Course in need of maintenance. Greens non existent. Grass not watered. This could be a gem of a course if it was only maintained. If you do play here, leave the putter at home and just bring irons and wedges as it's impossible to get a true roll on the bumpy greens. I stopped after nine holes due to "heat" but mainly it was because the course is so out of shape.

Unless they start doing some watering and maintenance this course will soon be gone. Greens are full of weeds and difficult to put on. Our cart was about to fall apart. Definitely not worth 20 dollar green fee to play there. I think they are moving closer to just frisbee golf. It was better when they mowed short and painted the greens. People who work there are very nice and friendly.

A decent golf course, have played here a number of times while in Tucson. Really reasonable, used to $12 for a 9 hole 3 par course. Pretty course, good to practice your short game on. Nice location too. Loses stars for: A) Rates do not get cheaper in the summerB) Rates have gone up to $15 recentlyC) Can still see the road from some holesWish they also had an 18 hole course or a regular 9 hole. In the summer, you can play 9 holes at a lot of the other courses for the same price. Still, a nice course to practice on.

I like this course. For a desert course, it is pretty green The price is a good value. Really a pretty good course for someone who golfs poorly and wants to feel a little successful!

I like this course. My friend and I play this course all the time. Great short Game work. Water on two holes. Trees lining the fairways. Denny is a great guy. When we come in everytime he says"here comes the first hole in one today!!!!" Great fun and good food.

Used to be awesome, but now it is apparently permanently closed. Kinda sad, lots of memories on this course from 20 years ago.
