Type Resort
Par 73
Length 6951 yards
Slope 141
Rating 73.7

The Club at Starr Pass offers 27 holes of championship golf that have been host to legends such as Arnold Palmer and Phil Mickelson. The holes are divided into three nines that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. One of these combinations is Coyote/Roadrunner. Coyote is the club's signature course and while the Roadrunner nine might be the shortest, it has plenty of elevation changes. Both golf courses are carved from the scenic Tucson Mountains, providing golfers with a diverse landscape that is abundant with jackrabbits, quail, and deer. In addition to the three nines, there is also a double-loaded driving range and a practice area with putting and chipping greens.

Mixed Experience

Starter Randall is exceptionally positive, approachable, and helpful.
“Rattler” fairways and greens are in excellent condition.

Spectacular vistas.
Wildlife everywhere this time of year. Unbelievable, actually.

Some tee boxes are a mess. Driving range stations have little grass. Disruption of Pro Shop and the dining room during renovations will disappoint anyone familiar with the previous facility … and will probably infuriate anyone vacationing at Starr Pass for the golf experience.

Always enjoy the course

The only thing that didn’t work this time was I needed to grab a bite. The food truck needs better organization. The club house credit card terminal needs to work !

In Transition

Amenities are under construction.
Depleted staff members doing their best to help golfers enjoy the experience.
Starter on my date was exceptionally positive and helpful.
Fabulous views and course design.
Greens are in great condition.
Fairways need work.
Driving range needs attention, too.

Great Course Best Bunkers in Tucson

They have done a lot of work on the course. Player just 9 holes on Coyote and it continues to improve. Bunkers had new soft sand. Greens ran true and fairways were in great condition. Played in an hour so no problem with pace of play. Staff at the pro shop were very friendly. A trailer for now as they renovate the clubhouse. The course keeps improving. Play the Coyote Rattler combo as the Plamer is a bit funky. I wish they still had the silver/gold combo on the scorecard. That’s a nice distance. Silver is a bit short and gold can be a bear on a couple of the holes. We used to rotate Starr Pass with Arizona National but this is much better level of service, great practice facilities and way better conditions. For the same price or often more at AZ National, this is far better value.

Beautiful challenging layout

This course is not for beginning golfers. Lots of forced carries and target golf. Bring extra balls. But the course is amazingly beautiful and a fantastic challenge. We come here every year for two weeks and don't play anywhere else. Love it!

Target golf at it's finest

Definitely a nice course and experience, but not somewhere I'd like to play regularly. Not a particularly long course, but every hole is a layup/course management play. It gets old for 18 holes. You can hit quality golf shots and be penalized if you roll out of a fairway or miss a green (lost ball in the desert that is unplayable). It may get better if you play multiple times and know the lines, but imo not the best golf experience for the money.

Starr Pass on this

The course was in great shape, but I did not care for the layout. Too many forced carry and too many runouts into arroyos, bushes etc. Not a good course for higher handicaps.
