Water Works Park (KCMO Parks and Recreation)
One of the classic courses in Kansas City, with a number of holes making their way into people’s “dream 18), this is a shorter course with very few flat throws. Angle control is crucial as discs on the wrong angle often get “Waterworked” and can roll hundreds of feet away.

Kessler Park / Cliff Drive (KCMO Parks and Recreation) Presented by Prodigy
This KC course is located in Kessler Park just off historic Cliff Drive. The course plays around the old municipal reservoir and is one of the highest points in the city. Featuring a mix of long open shots and technical woods, this course will take its toll on both your body and your score. Plays longer than it looks due to many uphill holes. Shorter holes are mostly tight and wooded. Many elevation changes, and OB roads come into play on many holes. Plenty of wind and great views of the city add to the fun. Bring water and some good footwear for the woods.

Heritage Park (Joco Parks and Recreation) – Presented by West Plaza Tomato Company
While not a “wooded course” by East Coast standards, Heritage Park is one of the more technical courses within the Kansas City Area. While not a long course, the rough is incredibly penal and requires accurate shot selection and mental discipline.
