Other Thoughts:
With several courses in the Joplin area, this is by far the best one available. This long 27 hole course offers just about everything. On the first 18 holes, about ten of them are long bomb holes, easy for beginners. Other holes are kinda tricky with trees you have to throw through. The last nine holes offer a bit more of a challenge. A few are long shots, but most are more tricky then the first 18.
Another great thing about this course is that you can start at hole 1, 10, or 19 and have a great time. I have done this on different occasions to get a different flow to the day.
My only suggestion is that you wear hiking boots or a really comfortable pair of tennis shoes. The course is a bit rocky in places, so watch out for loose rocks. It can also bang up your discs a bit. I have a couple of discs with some pretty deep gouges from landing on rocks.
My favorite on the course is hole 8 or hole 13. On hole 8, you have to throw through a grove of trees, making a nice setup shot a must. Hole 13 is a par five over a small hill with some trees along the fairway.
UPDATE (5/19/17): Since writing this review, I have played several other courses and found my original rating of a perfect (5) to be vastly over stated. Don't get me wrong, this is an excellent course for the Joplin area, but giving it a five rating was overstating the true value of the course. I have since moved my rating down at a more respectable (3.5), which is more in line of what this course actually is. There are some great holes on this course, and it is truly one of my favorites, but the five rating was just too high.
