Desert Golf

The golf courses in the Tucson area are certainly much different than those in the mid-west. The courses here are all pretty flat with few water holes, but lots of sand traps. The tees are generally green, as are the fairways, but, as you can see in the picture on the tee below, there is a stretch of brown between the tee and the fairway.


In this picture, my long-time friend, Joe Chandler, is in the foreground watching an RV Park neighbor, Jim Green, tee off.

All of the greens are very plush, but the best things about playing Desert Golf are the mountains in the background, clear skies, no wind and, of course, the nice warm weather. It was 75 degrees the day we played.
