The Round

The Journey at Falcon Ridge Golf Course

The Opening

Falcon Ridge starts gently with a 495-yard par 5 rated No. 16, and the club's own gallery shows lakes at both the 1st and the 144-yard 2nd. The opening stretch builds to the 410-yard 6th, the No. 2 handicap and the front-nine signature in a Nevada Golf feature: a view over the Mesquite valley from the tee, a small lake on the right about 230 yards out, and an uphill second to an undulating green tucked against the base of a plateau.

II.

The Middle

The 609-yard 7th is the longest hole on the card yet rates No. 18; the 212-yard 8th, No. 4, is the harder par. The front nine totals 3,011 yards at par 35. After the turn the par 5s come quickly at the 10th and 12th, and the 525-yard 12th is the back-nine signature: the tee sits 120 feet above the fairway, the drive must split two large lakes and a bunker, and going for the green in two means carrying at least 200 yards of water.

III.

The Finish

The 435-yard 13th is the No. 1 handicap, and the run home rarely relents. Two long par 3s, the 202-yard 14th and the 232-yard 17th, bracket the 549-yard 16th, the inward nine's easiest hole by handicap at No. 17. The 420-yard 18th, No. 3 on the card, closes a back nine of 3,558 yards and par 37. Brian Wursten told Nevada Golf that the back nine's slope, doubled, works out to 153 against 118 for the front.

How to Play It

Falcon Ridge Golf Course — Playing Strategy

Beginner / High Handicap

The club card lists four sets forward of the Black tees, Silver through Maroon. Its local rules play all desert areas and rock gardens as lateral penalty areas, so take the drop rather than search the scrub. Build the score on the front nine, which rates far easier than the back, and lay up on the 12th rather than face the 200-yard carry over water.

Intermediate / Mid Handicap

Wursten says the front nine offers plenty of ways to score and the back much more risk and reward, so bank strokes before the turn. On the 6th, the lake on the right at about 230 yards decides the tee club; staying short of it still leaves an uphill second. Coming in, the par-3 14th and 17th play 202 and 232 yards, so take enough club.

Advanced / Low Handicap

From the Black tees (70.9/135) the three hardest holes on the card are long par 4s: the 435-yard 13th, the 410-yard 6th and the 420-yard 18th. The 12th is the gamble that defines the round, a carry of at least 200 yards over water to a narrow green guarded by a large bunker. The 609-yard 7th, rated No. 18, is a three-shot hole where a sensible lay-up costs little.
