Golf Value? Go West
Examples of great golf value when you head west:
New Mexico:
If the economy's got you down, go to New Mexico where postcard beautiful courses, affordable green fees and value-priced, stay-and-play packages are the draw. Recommended:
The Palouse Ridge Golf Club in Pullman, Washington, promises to be one of the best new daily-fee courses in 2009. Designed by Tacoma-based architect John Harbottle III, the housing-free layout stays true to the natural contour of the land as it weaves through the Palouse hills.
The nearly treeless course has only 49 bunkers, half the number found on most new courses. Palouse Ridge, $39 to $91 for non-residents, is home course of the Washington State University men's and women's golf teams.

- Pinon Hills, a desert layout in Farmington that's regarded as one of the nation's best municipal-golf experiences. $33 weekdays, $38 weekends. Play rolling fairways framed by pinon and junipers, and shoot over sandstone canyons and wide arroyos.
- Golf on the Santa Fe Golf Trail is a marketing alliance featuring eight championship courses in high-desert settings. Included is the spectacular Ken Dye-designed Paa-Ko-Ridge course in Sandia Park, $59 Monday-Thursday.
