Falcon Golf Club
Frequently Asked Questions
When is the ideal time to plan a golf trip to Falcon Golf Club for the best playing conditions?
We always recommend visiting Falcon Golf Club during Zimbabwe's dry season, typically from May to October. The weather is cooler and drier then, ensuring the fairways are firm and the greens are running true, making for a truly enjoyable round without the intense heat or heavy rains.
What makes Falcon Golf Club's layout unique, and what's the biggest challenge for golfers?
Falcon Golf Club truly stands out with its natural, undulating terrain and mature indigenous trees that demand precision off the tee. You'll find the par-3 7th hole particularly memorable; it's a beautiful downhill shot that plays shorter than its yardage but requires a perfect club selection to avoid the surrounding bunkers.
Should I expect any wildlife encounters during a round at Falcon Golf Club?
Absolutely, and that's part of the charm! While you won't see big game, it's common to spot various bird species, warthogs, and even smaller antelope grazing near the fairways. Just remember to give them their space and enjoy the unique African backdrop to your game.
How easy is it to get to Falcon Golf Club, and what's the best way to travel there?
Falcon Golf Club is located a bit off the beaten path, near Esigodini, which adds to its serene charm. We suggest arranging private transport or a reliable taxi from Bulawayo, which is about an hour's drive away; the roads are generally good, but a dedicated driver makes the journey stress-free.
What's the typical cost for a round at Falcon Golf Club, and is it good value for money?
You'll find Falcon Golf Club offers excellent value, especially compared to more commercial courses. Green fees are quite reasonable, often around $20-30 USD, and the friendly, unpretentious atmosphere combined with well-maintained greens makes it a fantastic, authentic golf experience that won't break the bank.
