Championship Golf Course at UNM (The)

This course hosted the NCAA championships a few years back and always hosts a major qualifier, Mountain West Conference tourney, sectional, regional, etc. It's a monster course that requires good shot placement and great putting skills. There are numerous tees to test your skills at the approriate course length. LOTS of changes in elevation test your club selection skills. The greens range from extra large to pinpoint and while they all "slope to the river" (the Rio Grande), you'll need a good eye to read the breaks and get the speed. The course is always in great shape and it's one of the three 'must play' if you visit Albuquerque. It will be among the best values you can get for a course of this quality, since it's fees are controlled by the State of NM. Play this course first and then try the others and see if you don't agree, particularly about the value.
