REVIEW:
Arizona
National Golf Club (formerly The Raven Golf Club at Sabino
Springs) was designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. The course
is carved out of the foothills of Tucson, Arizona’s
beautiful Santa Catalina Mountains.
The
surrounding vistas at Arizona National Golf Club are unmatched
by any golf club in the Tucson area. Each tee box provides
panoramic views that stretch across Tucson and all the way
to Mexico. Arizona National Golf Club’s 6,785 yard
layout tests a golfer’s skills as decisions on how
best to play each hole is required. Each hole offers a unique
look and challenge.
The day we played
the course it was a near perfect 75* with a few fluffy clouds
doting the sky. The condition of the fairways and greens
were top notch. The staff made sure all our needs were met.
The pace of play was perfect as we were able to complete
our round in 4 hours and 10 minutes. Once we finished we
were able to get a cold drink in the beautifully appointed
lounge and restaurant and peruse the pro shop to find some
memrobila or maybe a new putter. When you visit Arizona
National Golf Club, you will be able to enjoy the gorgeous
desert scenery on a course that has been named "Top
100 Courses You Can Play" by Golf Magazine and the
"Top Golf Course in Tucson, Arizona" by the Arizona
Republic.
Multi-year
golf memberships are eligible for special financing provided
by the Wildcat Trail for its new members. Click

Arizona
National Golf Club has formed an alliance with the University
of Arizona to become the home course of the Wildcat Men’s
and Women’s collegiate golf teams. Both programs consistently
rank among the top teams in the nation and boast 88 All-Americans
and numerous tournament titles in their combined history.
Included in that group are LPGA star Annika Sorenstam and
PGA Tour veteran Jim Furyk.
We are
confident that a day of golf at Arizona National Golf Club
will be remembered for years to come. When visiting Tucson
make sure to book your tee time early so you don’t
miss out playing this “Elite” course.
