Rating 73.8
Located just southeast of Phoenix in the town of Florence, Poston Butte Golf Club offers some of the most affordable golf in the area. The course has desert attributes but the best part about its design is that it is more forgiving than some of the overgrown desert courses found in north Scottsdale. The golf course features 49 sand traps strategically placed around the landing zones and greensides and water comes into play on two holes. It is generally a player-friendly layout though with wide fairways and ample room off the tees. The par-3 17th is the signature hole, which is known for its challenging island green. Poston Butte also offers a double-ended, targeted grass range and a short game area.

Poor bunkers and greens
For an upscale golf course, this was not what I expected. The first two greens were very fast. The fourth hole, a par 3, was very slow? After that, some fast, some slow (but not as slow as 4). Bunkers, same thing. Some had some sand, some not. Also, playing out of them was an adventure.
