Pusch Ridge (El Conquistador)

Considered one of the best-kept secrets in Arizona golf, the Pusch Ridge course is a nine-hole, par 35 course. Fast, Fun and Affordable, the Pusch Ridge Course offers stunning views of the Santa Catalina Mountains in the heart of Oro Valley, Arizona. The course features three Par 3’s, four Par 4’s, and two Par 5’s and winds its way around the El Conquistador Resort. This course is not long at 2,788 yards, and places a premium on accuracy off the tee. Sporting a 175-foot change in elevation from start to finish, Pusch Ridge is an enjoyable experience for golfers of all skill levels. The first hole is a gentle dog leg left par 5 of 450 yards and can get your round off to a good start. The second hole is a short par 4 at just 284 yards. Take on the challenge of trying to drive the green or play smart? The second hole is all about staying in control – don’t go long as the desert behind the green is in play! Hole 3 is a 520-yard par 5 with a fairway sloping from left to right. Stunning views of Pusch Ridge await you from the tee box and fairway on this hole. Number 4 is the first par 3 on the course and features a downhill tee shot to a green sloping left to right. This hole plays 191 yards from the championship tee and will test your skill. Hole 5 is a downhill par 4 of 371 yards and has the only water feature on the course with a pond which encompasses the green. Choose your club carefully from the fairway as the green falls away into the pond on three sides. Hole 6 is 366 yards and will test your accuracy off the tee. The green is elevated 20 feet above the fairway and par is a good score. Only 111 yards in length, Hole 7 is the shortest hole on the course. Make sure you choose the correct club to carry the desert landscape and arrive safely on the green. Hole 8 is another potentially drive-able par 4 at 320 yards and features a blind tee shot over the hill as the fairway moves from left to right towards out of bounds. Your round at Pusch Ridge finishes with a 166-yard, downhill par 3 heading towards the clubhouse.
