Nice layout but needs maintenance
Looks like a once great course with a nice layout. The bunkers are terrible. They are crusty. Unable to splash sand. Some are dirt with a few weeds in them. Others are just so rock hard. I didn't see a proper bunker on the entire course. The greens are fast with their share of bad spots, but need aerification. The general areas are hard. You will get a lot of roll and tight lies everywhere. Hopefully will get much needed maintenance and green up in the coming months, but I won't be back anytime soon to find out.
Practice Saturday day
Weather was unbelievable and pace if course was a great as well.
Nice course
Had a good time. Have seen the course in better conditions but it is winter. Will definitely play it again. Great staff.
The Butterfield is a great course, it is challenge and the fairways and greens are good. of course this time of year in Elpaso it’s a little dried up. Also you can get behind a slow group here. Normally it can be quite pricey to play here however with the golf now you can get a good deal for this course
Getting worse instead of better
I don't know how but the course is actually getting worse than better and I'm assuming they're applying water to it. One of the problems is they are not trying to control the pace of play at all and they got a lot of hacks on the course.
Good price, below average course
There was no green grass anywhere. The whole course was mostly dirt or patches of dead grass, even on the putting greens. However, for the price I paid (18 from an online deal not including tax) it was a good place to play since there was hardly anyone there.
Excellent course
Great course...we played on a Hot Deal, and was definitely worth the money. This has always been one of my favorite courses in the El Paso area. Conditions are great (especially for winter), and staff is friendly! Will be coming more often.
Good bang for your buck
$25 for 18 and a cart (twilight rate). You have to start before 1 in order to make sure you are done by sunset (January).
Golfers and staff are very friendly. On Thursdays you can get $2 sliders in the restaurant. Great value.
Butterfield is doing ok
For the price this was an excellent value to play at butterfield. Sand traps had hardly any sand but for the price and time of year it was all good
Interesting Course
Being from Minnesota it is difficult to assess winter courses in the south. This course was brown throughout he property. Some courses have green areas around the greens. Others have green fairways. This course was just brown.
Dustbowl
Course is in extremely poor condition. Tee boxes are so poorly marked, takes more time to find your spot than to play the hole. Who needs 5 or 6 tees anyway?
Bunkers are nothing but dirt & rocks. Fairways are dirt with a tuft of too-short grass every once in a while.
Unsure who designed the cart paths, but just stay home and play Mario Cart to get the same experience.
Not green but fun
Was told the golf course is in good shape, and they use Bumuda grass which currently is in dormant mode (Jan). When we got to the golf course, the fairways and the putting green are all BROWN! It doesn’t look pretty, but got lots of rolls on the fairway ls and the putting green was fast! Overall a fun course with good layout. It just didn’t look as pretty when it is not green. Would recommend the course.
New friends
The weather was great as well as the condition of the golf course. ...
It was worth every cent.
