Worth the trip
Living in the DFW area (Denton) there are plenty of courses to play. However, with the influx of humanity moving here it's becoming increasingly tougher to score premium tee times. Not to mention the crazy increase in green fees. Falconhead (like many other outlier courses) is a welcome relief to overcrowded weekend golf. It's a hidden gem. $55 on the weekends in DFW are impossible for a decent course and there are no crowds at this great course. Staff are friendly and helpful. Course conditions are super, no crowded tee boxes, fair pricing, out in a quiet country setting.. and not that far away. What's not to like? Will be returning soon.
Great Course
I love playing this course and would highly recommend it. The staff is great and the course is in great condition. The greens are lightening fast and can kick your butt if you don’t pay attention. Definite Recommend.
Great and challenging course
Fun and challenging course. The staff is great. Really enjoyed being away from the city. I’ll be back.
Great course away from the busy city
Really enjoyed the course and nature around it. Staff was very friendly. Can’t wait to play it again.
The best around
It is well kept. Fairways are clean and the greens are the best greens around here.
Great and Challenging Course
I had a great time playing this course. It’s away from the noise of the city. It was nice enjoying the nature. The green were fast and kicked my rear. Can’t wait to play it again soon.
Fun course
Really enjoy Falconhead. Play there 4-5 times a year as we live 40 in away. Great layout with very pretty holes. Challenging but fun for average golffers.
Course was nice
The course was looking good and playing good. The only downfall was the greens but because people aren't fixing their pivots. Overall was a great day.
Southern Oklahoma Golf
Made the 1.5 hour drive up from Dallas, and it was worth it. Staff were really nice, easy check in, and the pace of play was 3.5 hours. Bent grass greens were excellent and the rest of the course was in great shape. Will play again.
Enjoyable Day in Southern OK
Drove up from Dallas for the day and glad we did. Very enjoyable round on a well kept course that's fun to play. The bent grass greens were awesome! Staff was very kind and helpful. Pace of play with a 1000 tee time was 3.5 hours-Excellent!
Restaurant was closed, but we're able to get drinks and snacks at the pro shop. Will play again.
Nice course!
By far the best greens I’ve played on in recent memory. Beautiful bent grass, fast and rolled true overall the course was well maintained, no bare spots in the fairway. For the money such a deal! The only issue we had was with alcohol. We got some “incomplete” information from the cart ladies. They don’t sell alcohol at all on the cart. Told us we could get it at the clubhouse and take it on the course. What they should have said was you can buy beer AT THE PROSHOP and take that. If you go to the bar next door, you can take nothing outside. My Sad and son had to chug a couple of mixed drinks. Good for me since they didn’t sober up for several holes but bad for them. Again overall, best value on golf now I’ve gotten in a LONG time.
What a layout!
We arrived only to be told the front 9 was closed due to 90 mph winds and water from the previous night. So off to the back 9 we went. Their grounds crew deserves a bonus for even getting it open. Dead trees were everywhere, but not in fairways, tee boxes, or greens. These bentgrass greens are so smooth and tough to putt on, it takes a great chip/approach shot to even try for a birdie. It was nice being able to exact revenge on that nine the same day.
Nuce course in great condition
Course is a short 30 minute drive from Winstar. Nice layout and some challenging joles. Green were in great condition. Some of the best i have seen so far this year. Played as a single on a mo day morning and only saw 2 groups of players all day. I had the coirse virtually to myself and finished in about 3 hrs. Great course for the money. Only complaint was that there is no water provided on the course so bring your own.
Course wasn't in the best condition that I've seen it in. Greens had a lot of divots but fairways were in decent shape
Falconhead is a good deal
I would definitely come back on my next visit to the area, good value for your $$$
