We headed to Tucson for a couple of days of golf using our summer Troon Card. Quarry Pines is a golf course built on an active quarry. Okay, the course itself is on the old quarry, but the active quarry is just beyond the fence for many holes of this course. The first nine holes are a pretty traditional, easy to play course, winding through neighborhoods, but the back nine are much more difficult with a lot of elevation changes, and a lot of desert. The back nine was fun, but definitely a bit over my head. The staff was friendly, and we used our Troon 2 for 1, so we paid $12 a piece, for a total of $24. Our only complaint was that there were no coolers on the carts, and we played 18 holes without ever seeing a beverage cart. By the end of 18 holes in 100 degree weather, our drinking water was very hot, and we had a hard time keeping ourselves cool. It was a pretty course, but wouldn’t be my first choice to play again.
