The Links were built on the grounds of the old Sierra Blanca airport, and designed by Jim Colbert and Jeff Bauer. It's on the north side of Ruidoso, which is southeast of Albuquerque, and due west of Roswell. It's mostly an open style course that plays to 6793 yards, 121 slope from the back tees. Play the back tees, since you're at 7500 feet above sea level, the ball really flies here. Fun course, not all that difficult, interesting hole design, nice conditioning, and a beautiful setting in the mountains.
