Quarry Pines Golf Course, Tucson, AZ

What an interesting course - so glad we did it! https://www.playthepines.com/golf

The starter told us "the first nine are kind of flat, but the back 9, well, I'll let you find out for yourselves". And boy did we ever...the front nine was familiar as all golf courses, fairly flat with not too many hazards, a little sand and a little water. We saw roadrunners and desert quail. Then we made the turn...holy moly what a difference, elevations, mountains, desert to hit over and a lot of walking. We were able to golf us a couple and pace of play was good. We did let some "hitters" go through on the back 9 because it was really tough. There is a turn so I never used the bathrooms which were available on both 9's. There was no cart person and we didn't stay at the grill which only had sandwiches. There was a small outdoor area. We decided to eat at Mountain View Golf Course which is more of a country club so we were able to get a meal in a nice outdoor area. We would golf there again BUT the back 9 was very tiring for us.
