Texas Desert Golf
Course was wide open, no starter, hole signage was scant got confused about where to go. All in all not to bad. I would play here again if I lived here.
Challenge accepted
This course was a a lot of fun. The desert terrain along the rough was very unforgiving but the challenge of being accurate off the tee was a welcome challenge. I had a great time navigating the course and the sunset offer the Franklin mountains was worth the green fees in itself.
Will definitely return for a second round.
Poor service, rushed gameplay, no amenities
Second time playing at this course. Marshals were super pushy with gameplay, attendants were unfriendly. Seems as though they squeeze in way too many tee times. Cashier seemed to be bothered with patrons despite slow weekday. No drink cart girls or service at all for 18 holes. Course layout is great but given the location in the middle of the desert, be prepared to lose sleeves of balls all over the course due to all the cacti, foliage and shrubs with thorns. Would not recommend this course AT ALL. Go to Horizon instead and have a great time there.
Working hard
The biggest upset with butterfield is the greens are bad. But since this my home course I get to witness how hard they work trying to restore the greens. Im here weekly and watching them work daily on it. Beautiful course and they are doing a great job. Perfect for the money.
Cancelled My GolfNow Reservation for Private Event
You would think they would block out times in advance. I didn’t even get a message from the club. GolfNow sent me the message. The course conditions have been marginal for years. Just thought I’d give it a try. Never again
Best challenging desert course in the El Paso/ Las Cruces area
The Tim Fazio designed golf course is still the most challenging course in El Paso. Most greens had good ball rolling conditions. #4 had temp that was fast. Couple of greens had bare spots but nothing crazy. All fairways were in good condition. The course is still beautiful. I haven’t play it in a long time. For course owners please focus on the natural sand traps that made this course immaculate when it opened. Clean up the desert valleys like Par 3 #9. Highly recommend a round for all visitors. Great location near airport and Fort Bliss. Awesome views of desert and El Paso’s Franklin Mountains.
Greens
Did not tell me that green were punch.
They were slow and not in great condition.
But course is nice
Greens in very bad conditions
Course was too packed very slow pace took 6 hrs to finish. Greens in bad condition
Good Value, Good Challenge
The value for a round of golf, cart, and range balls was a nice surprise under $50. Played first rd in about 3 1/2 hrs. Also surprising. Decided to replay another 18. Round took about an hour longer, but still reasonable. The course was only in average condition, fairways were mostly ok, but the greens left a lot to be desired. I would say it would be somewhat ok for the fairways to be a bit lacking but not the green complexes. I would still recommend and play again.
Horrible course conditions
This is the worst course condition I have ever seen in my 50 plus years of playing golf all over.
Greens had actual holes, patched spots, bare spots or sand cover and it was all 18 greens
Fairways had fertilizer Rocks everywhere, they must have used old fertilizer that had gotten wet and tired to use sledgehammer to break it up.
It is a absolute shame that Spirit Mgmt group is just ruining a Tom Fazio great layout
Stay away
