Posse

Frequently Asked Questions

When's the ideal time to play Posse without battling the elements?

Focus on spring (March-May) or fall (October-November) for Posse. You'll get comfortable temperatures and less wind, making those dramatic canyon carries much more enjoyable. Summers are brutally hot, and winter mornings can be surprisingly chilly at this elevation.

How challenging is Posse for a mid-handicapper, and what should I prepare for?

Posse is a true test, especially if you're not used to high-desert golf. Expect significant elevation changes and forced carries over natural arroyos; bring extra balls. The greens are often multi-tiered and fast, so a good short game is essential to score well here.

What makes Posse stand out from other desert courses, and are there any must-see holes?

Posse truly shines with its integration into the natural landscape - it feels wild, not manicured. The par-3 14th, playing over a deep canyon to a green perched on a mesa, is an absolute showstopper and easily the most photographed hole. You'll also love the panoramic views from the 18th tee.

What's the typical green fee at Posse, and is it worth the splurge?

Green fees at Posse vary seasonally, but expect to pay anywhere from $150-$250, with peak season (spring/fall weekends) at the higher end. We think it's absolutely worth it for the unique experience and pristine conditions; it's a bucket-list course, not just another round. Factor in a mandatory cart fee, as walking is impractical.

What's the pace of play like at Posse, and what other amenities should I know about?

Posse generally maintains a good pace, usually around 4.5 hours, thanks to well-spaced tee times and marshals. The practice facilities are top-notch, with a large driving range and excellent short game area. Don't miss grabbing a post-round drink at the clubhouse patio; the views are incredible.
