Falconhead - Golf courses, Austin,

DESCRIPTION

Just west of Austin, stands Falconhead Golf Club with a course that truly rises to meet the promise of its handsome site in the famous Hill Country of Texas. This is perfect land for golf, and Falconhead is the perfect layout for the land. From our knobby oaks and cedars to our rolling hills to our creeks and ponds, we have a golf course that stands above others in the area. What makes our course particularly special is that it was laid out by the PGA Tour Design architects and has been designated as a PGA Tour Signature Series CourseTM. So you can be sure that every inch of the layout measures up to the exacting standards of the PGA and that the course will offer you the same kind of quality golf that the pros experience.

Shoots in the 80s

First time playing Falconhead. The course uses motorized carts which I don't like, but they are needed due to the hills. Most greens were great and rolled true, but the signature hole, par 3 was resoded in areas. Tee boxes were shabby and not all of the sand bunkers were dragged. For all the talk of this course and the way it's supposed to be a considered a PGA tour course, I was not impressed. It missed on being manicured. It certainly does not have that wow factor I expected. The course is located near Lakeway off 620. Wonderful looking homes.

Customer Service

The clubhouse was quaint. The staff member that checked us in was super nice and the young lady at the bar made a great turkey/swiss sandwich.

For about $20 less Mon to Friday, check out Star Ranch in Hutto. Plum Creek in Kyle has awesome fairways and green. It's about $35 cheaper but it's in fantastic shape.

Shoots in the 90s

I played this course in April of 2007 and it was in excellent shape and a great golfing experience. Unfortunately, this course is just not being maintained. It is one step above a goat ranch -not what I would expect for $79 greens fees. If you want to be extremely disappointed and feels like you have been ripped off, play Falconhead.

Shoots in the 80s

Falconhead is a very nice course that is open to the public. The course is not tight, and does not have a lot of housing development, so spraying the ball is generally not a problem. There is almost no water, and not many sand traps to content with (1-2 per hole). It is generally an easy course to play, and the conditions are very good almost year-round.

Customer Service

Courteous staff, nice facility.

Model Reviewed: Falconhead Golfclub

A very scenic, and quite challenging course. it opened 2 years ago. some blind shots, many rolling hills come into play throughout the round. signature hole is #17, a par 3 with the green on a rock shelf overhanging the creek below. check it out on www.falconheadaustin.com it was designed by the PGA, and is the only PGA Signature course in Texas. course knowledge will help with stategy the next time i play here, which will be often.
