Truth or Consequences Municipal Golf Course

Truth or Consequences Municipal Golf Course sits in the city that famously renamed itself in 1950 to win a radio quiz show promotion — previously known as Hot Springs, the community accepted Ralph Edwards's offer and has never looked back. The city of roughly 6,000 residents anchors Sierra County along the Rio Grande at around 4,200 feet, with Elephant Butte Reservoir nearby providing recreational draw. The municipal course offers recreational golf in a relaxed, famously quirky desert city that has cultivated a reputation for hot springs spas, arts, and an idiosyncratic identity distinct from anywhere else in New Mexico.
