Great golf. Hole in one!

We signed up and joined a member's tee time for the day. Conditions were a little wet, but they had just opened after being closed 2 days from rains. The closure allowed the course to dry out in perfect shape without all the cart tracks and damage. There was virtually no wind but you could tell on windy days the course would play much harder. Greens were ~3 years old, very firm on the front 9 but still receptive and in great shape. They had a grain to them, not typical in the Tucson area, so reading greens was more complex. The experience got even better on #12 watching a great tee shot disappear into the cup. Finding the clubhouse after 18 is a distance and wasn't marked well, so we took the roads back. All in all a memorable golf day.

Bundle up, Buttercup!

SBR is a very playable (read: not penal) course, usually in good shape. The advice here is simply to be aware that it is often cool and windy at "the ranch" and you would be smart to throw a couple of extra layers in the car so you are prepared for variable conditions. We weren't... and shivered through an otherwise enjoyable round.

Great Layout, Friendly Staff, Dry Hard Fairways

Greens are very firm and fast; don’t bother looking for a ball mark to repair. Fairways generally wide and generous. Biggest complaint is the tightness of lies both on fairways and around greens. Good value for the money.

Pace of Play Untenable!!!

I went out as a single late in the afternoon to get in 9 holes. It took 1 hr to play the 1st 3 holes so I gave up. Groups ahead took forever looking for their balls in the washes, unprepared to hit their next shots while waiting for their playing partner. No ranger on the course to speed up play. Ridiculous that it would translate in a 6 hour round!
