NMSU GOLF COURSE & THE PLAYER'S GRILL RESTAURANT

The high desert winds of southern New Mexico test every facet of your game at this university-owned layout, where elevation changes and strategic bunkering demand course management over brute force. Designed with multiple tee options that accommodate both NMSU students and visiting stick-handlers, the track features generous fairways that tighten considerably around well-protected greens. The mountain backdrops are spectacular, but it's the firm, fast conditions and clever use of desert terrain that make this public gem a legitimate test worth the drive to Las Cruces.
