Grand Valley Golf Course

Grand Valley Golf course lies 40 minutes north of Tucson

Picture 002As you pass through Eloy on your way to Phoenix or Casa Grande from Tucson you will see the Grand Valley Golf Course along the way. I have passed by this golf course hundreds of times on my travels to an from Phoenix. Curiosity settles in every time I pass by.

Curiosity no more. Today my son and daughter-in-law invited me to play the Grand Valley Course with them. This is the same course I mentioned in my blog Here’s A Quick Way to Help Make-A-Wish Foundation and Play Golf. Now I can enjoy the tournament having played this wonderful course.

Starr Pass Golf Course of Tucson - One of My Favorite Mountain Courses

Picture 015One of my favorite mountain golf courses is Starr Pass. The Starr Pass legend began over 120 years ago when Richard Starr crafted a trail through the rugged wilderness of the Tucson Mountains. The golf course at Starr Pass was originally completed in 1986. Renovated by Arnold Palmer in 2004 Starr Pass is one of the premium courses in Tucson. Nestled in the Tucson Mountains with 27 holes this course has a challenge for everyone. Broken into three 9-hole courses; the Roadrunner up to 3241 yards, Rattler up to 3490 yards, and Coyote up to 3512 yards.  You will play a combination of two of these three courses to finish off 18 holes. Picture 021The par 4 Coyote 6 fairway marks the Starr Pass Trail and has earned the honor of being the signature hole at Starr Pass. As you hit your second shot you can imagine Richard Starr making his way through the trail this course is named after.

My Favorite Tucson Municipal Golf Course

One of my favorite golf courses in all of Greater Tucson is Randolf North Municipal Golf Course


Randolph 009Randolph North Municipal Golf Course was the former home of the PING/Welch’s Championship LPGA Golf Tournament and has been the site for PGA tournaments from 1979 through 1990.   In the past it was the site of the PGA Seiko Tucson Match Play Championship and the PGA Joe Garagiola Tucson Open. Randolph was once touted as one of the best municipal courses in the country. Located in central Tucson, Randolph is easily accessible from any part of Tucson.

Randolph 005The course setting is a scenic with several tall trees, lush fairways, and a beautiful view of the mountains surrounding Tucson.
The fairways are forgiving. You can break out those $4 golf balls here. You forget that you are in the heart of Tucson on the inner fairways and holes.

Most noted for its mature vegetation including tall eucalyptus trees, pines, palms, and numerous plants. The layout is a typical country club design with tree lined fairways and parallel holes. The course features water hazards, long fairways, and greens that vary from relatively easy to severely sloped or tiered, and from small to large.
