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.

Nice Course for Any Skill Level!

Poston Butte was in good shape. Greens were punched a couple of weeks ago, but were okay and did not negatively affect my round. Staff was friendly and attentive. Will go back soon.

Poorest I’ve seen it in a long time

But it will recover, recently punched and sanded the greens so pretty bumpy. Punched fairways also and they need it. Large areas of thin grass or no grass with tight lies, at least the plugs had been mowed up.

Punched Greens / poor staff

They failed to warn us about the greens until after we paid, didn’t offer a discount, but did tell us their could only be two carts on the grass at one time. I was paired up with a threesome who had a non playing rider (great people) but this cause our group to have three carts. They kept harassing us to keep at least one cart on the path at all times. During the poor greens / course conditions?!? What a joke. Won’t be going back anytime soon.

Poston review

The course was in very good condition however, there were a few spots on the fairway where the water did not drain from irrigating. Overall, the greens ran true and were very receptive. I would play again, and I would definitely recommend playing there as long as the rate stay affordable The course was in very good condition however, there were a few spots on the fairway where the water did not drain from irrigating.

Too much water in the fairways

The weather was fantastic, however the course was very wet. Fairways and sand traps were wet and difficult to hit out of. Is it being overwatered?

Worth the drive!

Love the layout. The greens are how the course plays defense. Lightning fast, multi-level...must get ball in the right part of the green. 28 miles from home, 40 minute drive...no easy way to get there. Hardly the course's fault, right? Play it. You won't be disappointed!

Bad day at the course

If you expect any customer service there isn’t any so go there with that understanding you will be good. Oh ya it’s a walking only course when it’s above 90. Take it from me.
