Home Course 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jan 5, 2018 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

It has grass
Open, long shots
Some variety
Navigation easy
Pro shop with nice people + reasonable cost
Pretty setting
Baskets in great shape
Easy to get to, easy to park
Has that Tucson feel (slightly dilapidated)
Not busy with ball golfers
If your disc is lost in water or bushes it will likely surface back in the pro shop and you can pick it up on the Honor system

Cons:

I worry that this course might fade away because so much has closed down on the the property. Used to be Buffalo Bill's restaurant with music and steaks (gone). Used to be a tennis club (way south on property), now gone x3 years. Used to be a cafe.
The layout isn't the most thrilling (two loops)
Ball golfers play here (but not many) so you do have to be cognizant of being beamed in the head with a golf ball
You have to pay (but only $10)

Other Thoughts:

I live across the street from this course. When we moved here I wasn't into disc golf and randomly discovered the joy of living across the street from a disc golf course! It's a quiet little getaway course and according to one of the guys manning the front desk, it's the Frolfers who are supporting the course right now! Come out and keep Quail Canyon alive! It's a fun course and terrific for practicing your drive.

The Best Course in Tucson 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 21, 2016 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

- The course is located in a nice canyon, with none of the typical park hazards you'll find at the other courses in Tucson, i.e., dogs running wild, bicyclers/walkers/joggers, day time nappers, gang graffiti, car traffic, etc.

- The disc golf course flows with the ball golf course, allowing disc golfers and ball golfer to play side-by-side with minimal issues.

- The grass is in good shape/maintained here, which you won't find at the other courses in town.

- The clubhouse is clean and has drinks, snacks, and restrooms.

- The people working there are friendly and helpful.

- The course is challenging, but not so difficult as to scare off newer players.

- If you don't want to walk, golf carts are available for a few extra bucks.

Cons:

- The current disc golf signage is flimsy/falling down, but will hopefully be upgraded in the future

- The baskets aren't number, which may cause some confusion for out-of-town visitors

Other Thoughts:

I've played all the courses in Tucson numerous times and this one is definitely my favorite. While I enjoy and support the other courses in town, I appreciate the more upscale/professional feeling at this pay-to-play course. I realize not all disc golfers enjoy the "Country Club" atmosphere, with rules of etiquette and such. However, I do enjoy playing disc golf on a nice course and I would recommend wearing a collared shirt when you play here. It's not a requirement here but it does help counter the negative stereotypes often associated with disc golf in Tucson.

If you're looking for a nice course to play, and don't mind paying a few bucks to do so, this is your best option in Tucson.

I may be bias... 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 28, 2016 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Bathrooms (at the clubhouse and back of the course), defined fairways, challenging pin placements, pro shop w/ beverages and snacks, carts, hand carts, beautiful setting, mature trees, wildlife... The course is challenging but if you play smart you will do well.

Cons:

The carts aren't the most reliable.

Other Thoughts:

This is a pay to play course and I am fine with that. 2 plus hours of fun for $10 is a deal.
