Best course around
The hole place is beautiful from the restaurant to the golf course. Everyone is so friendly
Great bent grass greens!
Tees and fairways average with that old style wide blade Bermuda that's not the best to hit off of. But really good bent greens that roll very well. Not fast, but not slow either. Played a Wednesday afternoon with perfect weather and was about the only one on the course. Definitely worth the drive instead paying winstars lol prices.
fire at the pin
this course has a lot of OB but if you stay in the fairway ...you definitely have to fir at the pin ...greens are small but will hold ...and I do mean hold(bring your tool)
Falconhead crew keeps this course in great shape.
Course has a competitive lay out and makes it fun to play. Really enjoy playing here. Staff is always friendly
Need ball mark tool
The greens we're awesome. Fire right at the stick. Short course with alot if OB but that just makes you trust your driver more.
Great course layout
The course was in great shape. Very nice fairways & greens. The pro shop staff was ok but the restaurant person (Kim) was excellent & informative about the resort and course history. Played the back nine with the past pro of the club...excellence time and got some golf tips. Would definitely play it again.
July, 100 degrees and these greens are in excellent condition. You must have a divot repair tool. The faiwayways are also in great condition. This was the fifth time I have played this course and have never been disappointed in its condition.
If you can stand playing in the heat of the day, the golf now hot deal can't be beat.
Great hidden gem
This is my second time to play this course and I like this course more each time. It is very well maintained. Great bent grass greens! Great layout and views. Well worth the drive across the river. Easy to get to from DFW area.
Ok
9 handicap; course is a little rough. Fairways are marginal, greens are small but in very good shape. Golf carts are in marginal shape. If using "Hot Deal" pricing then worth the trip. Staff is exceptionally friendly. Not busy due to location. Beware of fire ant mounds.
Golf at Falcolnhead
Course in excellent condition. Enjoyed a very nice for golf at Falcolnhead. Course kind of tight and can be very challeging.
Great Greens
The course is fairly straight forward and the greens were in excellent shape on 6/12/17.
Southern Oklahoma Get-A-Way
Good place to go for a change of pace. This course is laid out in front of you, nothing really hidden. The clay based bermuda fairway holes played up and down a few hills, over and around a little water, beside some, not too tight, housing OB lines, that leads you to some very smooth, not too soft, and pretty speedy greens.
Its not a perfect course (where is?), but it lends to a serene, friendly, afternoon of golf where good shots are rewarded and bad ones are punished.
BTW - the greens generally pull to the south/southeast.
must play history
google waco turnet open.
this course is a classic. a reoccurring theme of greens with partial forced carries. relatively tight. if you are a true golf enthusiast, it is a special occasion to play a course that has held a pga tour event.
you can compare your round to legends.
we played a sunday at 11.
tbere was nothing to eat at the turn.
disappointing.
OK for the $
Although the screens were decent the rest of the course condition pretty poor. Couldn't play the ball down in the fairway. They were horrible. Layout is fair. Only 3 or 4 interesting holes. If it was more than $30 it would have been a ripoff.
This is the best keep secret in southern Oklahoma and a short drive from north texas
What a great value, excellent clean carts, well maintained course and buitiful greens; great staff in the Pro club and restaurant bar. Going back this weekend.
greens amazing
play here quite often.the price is well worth the the drive and green conditions.
bunch of OB
love the course. My friend was playing for the first time(hits a fade) ...but the course sets up better for a draw. Several holes he had to use a 3wood so I got the length advantage. Greens are excellent and soft. Too mush fun and we will BOTH be back again.
Just after punching & sanding
Enjoyed another fun round at Falconhead. Didn't mind the punching and sanding because it is part of maintaining good greens. These are good greens here and are the best thing about this course other than the low rate. I'll be back when I'm in the area.
