Frisco is the new home of the PGA of America, anchoring a fast-growing North Texas golf scene. Spring and fall deliver the best scoring weather, though spring also brings the region's severe-storm season. Summer rounds demand early starts before heat indexes climb past 100.
Wind is the variable that changes every club in your bag at Frisco. Peak gusts run from 11.5 mph in September up to 17 mph in April — and those are monthly averages, not worst-case days. On a breezy spring afternoon, a straightforward 150-yard approach can play two clubs longer into a south wind, then flip directions entirely when a front pushes through.
Frisco sits on the open North Texas plains with minimal tree cover to slow things down. The PGA of America campus and surrounding courses were designed expecting wind, but that doesn't make it easier to manage. Temperature swings compound the problem: February, March, April, and October all see a 19-degree gap between daily high and low, which means morning and afternoon rounds can feel like different weather entirely. Know the forecast, not just the date.
March through May brings the highest average peak winds of the year — 16.7, 17, and 15.4 mph respectively — layered on top of the most active storm season. May is the wettest month at 17 precip days, so tee times earlier in the week and earlier in the day reduce the chance of a lightning delay. Temperatures are comfortable (highs 69–82°F), but that wind means you're rarely playing the distance on the scorecard.
September is the calmest month at 11.5 mph, August second at 12.5 mph, and July third at 13 mph, but August's average high hits 96°F with overnight lows that only dip to 78°F. The reduced wind actually makes the heat feel worse — there's no breeze cutting the humidity. August is also tied for second-driest at 9 precip days alongside November, so conditions are consistent; they're just consistently brutal after 9 a.m.
October combines the driest conditions of the year (8 precip days) with moderating temperatures (high 79°F, low 60°F) and winds that ease back to 14.1 mph. It's still breezy enough to affect shot shape, but the gusts are more predictable than spring's frontal passages. November stays playable with highs of 66°F and only 9 precip days, making it a strong secondary option.
December and January highs reach 61°F and 56°F respectively, which is workable, but winds average 14.1 and 14.8 mph and cold fronts can drop temperatures 20-plus degrees in a few hours. February is the windiest winter month at 15.8 mph average peak and also averages 11 precip days. Dress in layers and check the hourly forecast — a comfortable morning round can turn raw by the back nine.
September is the calmest month of the year at 11.5 mph average peak wind, with a high of 88°F that's hot but manageable in the morning. October drops to 8 precip days — the fewest of any month — while the high falls to 79°F, squarely in the site's ideal range. November keeps precip days at 9 and highs at 66°F, and the wind remains calmer than anything spring can offer.
Frisco averages peak winds between 11.5 mph (September) and 17 mph (April) every month of the year — monthly averages never drop below 11.5 mph, keeping wind a constant factor. Spring is the windiest season overall, with March, April, and May all averaging above 15 mph. Even the most benign months demand attention to wind direction and club selection.
October is the strongest single month: only 8 precip days (fewest of the year), an average high of 79°F, and winds that ease to 14.1 mph after a blustery spring and summer. September is close behind as the calmest wind month at 11.5 mph, though its average high of 88°F means morning tee times still matter.
Yes, but with caveats. December and January highs average 61°F and 56°F respectively, which is comfortable on calm days, but February averages 15.8 mph peak winds and 11 precip days — the windiest and one of the wetter winter months. Cold fronts crossing the open plains can change conditions quickly, so check hourly forecasts rather than relying on the morning outlook alone.
