Type: Traditional
Course Architect: Greg Nash
Description:
The Hilton Tucson El Conquistador Golf & Tennis Resort is a Mobil
Four-Star and AAA Four-Diamond, full destination golf resort nestled in
the foothills of the Santa Catalina Mountains on 500 acres of high Sonoran
Desert. With 45 holes of spectacular golf, it is the largest golf resort
in Southern Arizona. Two championship 18 hole layouts are situated at
the Golf Club, while a superb 9-hole track plays around the resort further
up the mountainside. All the golf is fun to play, especially now that
the extensive refurbishments by original architect Greg Nash are finished
and in place.
Each of the two courses at the Golf Club are exciting and play very different
from each other. Both the Canada Course and the Conquistador Course wind
through numerous stands of mesquite trees offering a parkland feel in
a desert environment. Many desert washes and arroyos run adjacent to the
fairways and gobble up any errant tee shot. The greens are generous and
very fair, but knowing where or where not to go on the approach can capture
a birdy or yield a bogey just as easily. Closer to the resort at the Pusch
Ridge course, the golfer plays from elevated tees to sloping fairways
and more often than not, back up to an elevated green overlooking the
valley floor below.
The
Conquistador & Cañada Courses
At our Golf Club, just seven minutes from the resort by shuttle, are
two championship 18-hole layouts. Each course is exciting and plays very
differently from the other. Both the Cañada and Conquistador courses
wind through numerous stands of mesquite trees offering a park-like feel
in a desert landscape. The Conquistador is an exceptionally playable course
where the desert rarely comes into play. The Cañada retains the
charm of the popular high-desert courses and demands a good deal of strategy
and every club in your bag.
Pusch Ridge Course
Encircling the El Conquistador resort is one of the best kept golf secrets
in Tucson - the 9-hole Pusch Ridge Course. It is by no means an executive
course. The golfer plays from elevated tees to sloping fairways and more
often than not, back up to an elevated green. The layout makes full use
of the ravines and ridges as well as indigenous cactus and trees to challenge
any player.
