Links at Sierra Blanca, The
Played On 05/18/2014Nice municipal course
Got a great deal on Golf Now (50% less than the rack rate) which made the course a good value for the money. The fairways were spotty; some were nice and green others had dirt patches. Sand traps were not very sandy (mostly soft dirt/sand), however playable as is the norm with courses I've played in TX and NM. Greens were decent, they were green and rolled true (front greens were harder to hold versus the back greens). The front and back nines differ greatly; front is wide open links style, back had some elevation, trees, and was narrow. I scored better on the back as the greens were a bit softer and I could hold them better than the front greens which get constant sunlight and were a bit harder. I finished with an 81 which is within my normal range (78 to 84). Overall it was a fun course that was not crowded at all. We finished our round in 3 hours and only had to played through one group. Considering the layout, greens, and pace of play (we played on a weekend) I found the course to be a good value, relaxing and enjoyable.

Played On 03/22/2014What a hidden Jem
Course is challenging. Greens and fairways were in great shape. Staff was exceptionally helpful. 30 bucks on a weekend through golf now; what a steal.

Played On 12/16/2012Excellent course, excellent service makes for good golf
Got a good deal on GolfNow and decided to take my foursome to this course as it came highly rated. I must say that it lived up to the hype. No more than a minute after pulling into the parking lot, there was a golf club attendant picking up our clubs to prep them for the carts. Practice facility was standard, but a bonus was the free balls. We started on time and ended up playing the round in 4 to 4.5 hrs and that was on a Sunday. The course marshals really kept players on track, but they never seemed pushy. The fairways were lush, the bunkers were in great shape (we found a bunch of them), greens were decent - for this time of year I don't think one could find better. Overall, the other three guys and I all agree that we will be back as we all had an excellent outing at this course.

Played On 8/16/2012Very friendly staff
Course is moderately challenging. Tee boxes and fairways were not as pristine as expected. Greens were decent. Cart was super slow, however did have GPS. Play was very nice until we got to the last two holes. There were 6 groups in total on the last two holes; it took about 45 minutes to play them. There was no marshall on the course nor was there a refreshment person/cart. We were however able to get a great rate on Golf Now - ($25). The course was well worth the $25, but I don't see playing this course at the full weekend rate as there are better options out there for the money such as Forest Greens and Cannon Ridge.
