About
Editor's Note: Course closed for business. The land was redeveloped to
an industrial/warehouse area.
Located near the Estrella and White Tank Mountains, the Falcon Golf Club is an affordable, user-friendly course with an interesting layout. The front nine has a target-style layout with a desert landscape while the back nine has a more traditional design. The greens are medium-sized with a subtle break and the fairways are wide open. Water hazards come into play on two holes and there are numerous bunkers as well, especially on the back nine. The signature hole of the golf course is the par-3, fifth hole. This notable hole has water to the right of the green and bunkers on the front right and left. With its location just south of Luke Air Force Base, fighter jets are regularly seen flying over Falcon Golf Club.

has grown up nicely
fun little course. we got wet a few times from the sprinklers. but the air show was worth the price of playing. i would definitely play it again after the over seeding is completed
overseeding in progress
very nice course.... water here and there... lots of traps... would have played quicker but sprinklers came into play for the overseeding.... will play this course again ... should be real nice once the new grass can be cut....
could be a nice course
course should be closed while overseeding. the greens wewr just sand, and the sprinklers were on while we were playing and putting we all got soaked on almost every hole. trying to avoid the sprinklers was difficult.and putting on wet sand on the greens was impossible.
THIS COURSE DID PRESENT CHALLENGES FOUND IT VERY NARROW AND UNFORGIVING.
FRIENDLY STAFF. GAS GOLF CART. FAIRWAYS NARROW FOR A BEGINNER.
This course plays smoothly while not being extremely challenging.
I liked the pricing. Some of the bunkers could use a little more sand as I was able to find quite a few. The greeens are good but a bit inconsistent.
Nice layout and challenging greens
Fairly short holes but have to put ball in fairways to have an easy second. Small greens, precision is a must to score. Will certainly play there again.
We enjoyed the course, but the greens were slow and a bit inconsistent.
We enjoyed the course, but the greens were slow and a bit inconsistent. The bunkers are well placed and came into play more than we should have let them. Subsequent rounds here will have us trying for better course management.
Very enjoyable layout.
Overall a decent course
I played Falcon on a weekday afternoon and finished in about 3 hours. The semi-desert terrain was a nice change from the tall trees that line the fairways of the courses I usually play, and I didn’t have to worry about hitting someone’s house. This course may be a tad difficult for beginners, especially if you miss the green. There are numerous bunkers, often severe undulations and hills around the greens giving you a tough chip, and several greens are multi-level. The “rough” was cut shorter than my lawn, which was nice. Plus, if you’re playing lousy, you can always watch the air show.
Love the par 5's
The only negative is that the greens seemed to be a little furry.
Course is nice
Pace was great fairways nice greens fuzzy and slow but all in all course played good and fast pace made it better
Course was well maintained, and neat. Will be back
Some of the greens needed attention, but nice wide landing zones. First time here. Good value.
this course has nice desert features
The course was not busy when we played. The staff was nice to let us play before our actual tee time. The greens were good , fairways a bit thin in places.
A great place to watch jets.
After the resent rain the course was a little greener from what I was told. The bunkers had standing water in then little drainage. Some bunkers had ankle deep water in them. But nevertheless it's a great place to watch jets.
FOR SUMMER TIME IS ALL GOOD
SOME GREENS NEEDED SOME ATTENTION, THE FAIRWAYS HAD SOME AREAS THAT WERE AIRAED, THE FIGHTER PLANES WERE ABIT DISTRACTING, BUT OVERALL IT WAS A GOOD TIME.
very nice course
for the time of year the course in good shape
the deasert parts need cleaning up
a little to dry & hard
hard to hold greens grass a little thin in fairways traps packed fun track needs a little work
Course was too dry. Fairways were awful and several greens as well. Will not golf again until they put some water on the fairways.
Fairways were awful and several greens as well. Will not golf again until they put some water on the fairways. If you stayed on either side of the fairways you may have been lucky enough to land in some grass.
course was nice green.
I like this course will maintain and open.I will be back!
Average course. Could attract more play if fairways and greens (some) were in better shape.
The low greens fees make this scenic course attractive. Some sand traps would more aptly be called mud traps though.
