About Kansas CityKansas City is a popular Midwest city for golf, barbecue and nightlife. It also certainly helps that their coveted sports teams, the Chiefs, Royals and Sporting KC (MLS), have enjoyed success in recent years, thanks in part to the gifts of star quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Kansas City is also a reputable golf town and was the home of legendary Tom Watson. Just south of downtown, historic municipal course Swope Memorial is a favorite amongst locals and worth visiting if you're from out of town, too. It hosted the PGA Tour's Kansas City Open in 1949 and has a remarkable A.W. Tillinghast design on hilly and scenic parkland. Not far from Swope is a Donald Ross-designed semi-private course you can play, Hillcrest Golf Course. Popular modern public and semi-private courses around town include Ironhorse Golf Club, Stone Canyon Golf Club, Shoal Creek Golf Course, Drumm Farm and Tiffany Greens.
Those with private club access should inquire about Kansas City Country Club or the National Golf Club among others. If you're up for a little road trip, Firekeeper Golf Course is located about 75 minutes west of town in Kansas and is a top public course in the state set on tribal property and adjacent to a casino and hotel for a quick stay-and-play.
After golf, visitors can enjoy dining - barbecue or otherwise - and bars in the Power & Light District, Westport or The Plaza. Kansas City delivers great value for golf and the friendly locals will make visitors feel right at home.
