BUTTERFIELD TRAIL GC

The West Texas desert provides a surprisingly lush backdrop for this Tom Weiskopf design, where strategic bunkering and undulating greens demand precision over power. Water comes into play on half the holes, creating risk-reward scenarios that separate thoughtful course management from wild swings at desert pins. The layout rewards local knowledge of wind patterns that can turn a routine approach shot into a white-knuckle recovery from the surrounding arroyos.
