Hole 9 at Quintero Golf & Country Club
Par 3 • 212 Yards • Peoria, Arizona
The finishing par 3 at Quintero Golf & Country Club hole 9 presents a deceptively challenging 212-yard test that demands precision over the desert landscape. This straight, no-nonsense par 3 requires golfers to carry their tee shot across natural desert terrain to reach a small, well-protected green complex. Without significant hazards to distract from the pure challenge, success depends entirely on club selection and execution in the often-swirling Arizona winds. The compact green offers little margin for error, rewarding accurate iron play while punishing wayward shots with difficult recovery situations. As the final hole on the front nine, this demanding par 3 sets the tone for Quintero's desert golf experience, where strategic thinking and shot-making precision reign supreme over raw power.

Shop Hybrids →Strategy Tips
This 212-yard par 3 requires precise club selection and commitment to your target line. With no fairway to bail out to, you must carry your tee shot all the way to the green.
Beware of bunkers positioned at 229.7 yards - while beyond the green, any shot that flies long will find sand. Take one less club to ensure you stay short of trouble.
The generous 4,779 square foot green (35x28 yards) gives you a large target to aim for. Use this to your advantage by playing to the center of the green rather than attacking tight pin positions.
With zero fairway width at both 200 and 250 yards, there's no room for error or strategic positioning. This is a pure target golf hole - pick your club and commit to a direct shot at the green.
Consider the risk/reward carefully - the large green provides a good target, but with no landing zone available short of the green, any mishit will likely find trouble. Club selection is critical for success.
This par 3 is ideal for working on your long iron or hybrid. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
