Overview
Sewailo differs from most Arizona courses in that it features more of an open, links golf feel, with ample forced carries and lots of water and sand to negotiate. Opened in 2013 and designed by former PGA Tour player Notah Begay III, Sewailo features multiple tee options for players of differing playing abilities.

Review
“The layout maintained a high level of character throughout the round with some unique and memorable holes. There was a lot of strategic bunkering on every hole that added to the challenge. The green complexes had some undulations and they rolled true and consistent and were receptive to approach shots."

“Enjoyable course. Pretty flat but fairways and greens were in good shape. Several challenging holes but overall not a demanding course (wind can really be a factor). If you're a single digit hdcp. and want a challenge, move back a tee box from your normal yardage. Its a decent course for locals. Really great staff inside and outside!"

“A course with lots of sand and contrived water [pumped from somewhere and circulated] that lead to big speedy greens which gave the player a better chance than on the adjacent casino."

“I was taken back by how much water came into play on the course. The course had great scenery with water in the desert. Even though there was water abound, the course played firm and fast (played in the winter). The course is a little out of the way, but it is a fun place. There are some risk reward holes that really make you think on the tee box."

“Course has wide fairways but needs to because of how the wind howls out there. Course was fun and in good shape. Green shapes were interesting."

“Fairly average resort course -- the really long double green for #1/8 is the most interesting feature."

“A challenging course with a number of artificial water features that make this desert course look quite attractive. There is a good variety of hole designs which require good shots to score well. The course was in good condition when I played here. It is the home course for The University of Arizona. They also have the golf boards to ride that is an alternative to a cart, nice touch."

“Overcooked and extremely artificial. 10th hole is one of the worst designs I have ever seen on a 'resort' course. This layout cannot make up its mind what it wants to be...a tough test, or a crowd pleaser for the masses. I cannot get past the abundant flowerbeds, the manufactured streams and waterfalls and general artificiality. Have played this course twice, now. Not impressed."

“Notay Begay design, and he has done a good job, especially for a flat desert property."

“Sewailo regularly hosts a College Championship series there so you know it's going to be in good shape. Plus, they have Golf Boards! Unfortunately mine was running out of juice around 13 so i called the pro shop and someone immediately rode out a new one and swapped it over. They were so quick to act that I didn't even miss my turn to hit. The course is tuff, but pretty straight forward. It really doesn't show it's teeth unless the wind kicks up, which I was told it would. And oh boy did it ever. Once the temp rose, the winds started howling and the golf course became a force to reckon with. Play it if you are in the south Tucson area, but there are some other must plays farther north."
