New Mexico State University Golf Course is located just east of I-25 off University/Exit 1 on the southeast side of Las Cruces set up on the bench of the Organ and “A” Mountains.

The golf course is parkland style winding along tree lined fairways bordered by the natural desert waste areas. The greens tend to be on the small side, slightly raised, and are protected by sand bunkers generally on the sides allowing for the bump-n-run shots. From the champions tees it plays to 6,645 yards, 71.1/126, course/slope ratings with one longer and two shorter sets of tees, designed by Floyd Farley in the 1960s.
