What is your fav course in your home area? I like Falcon Lakes quite a bit. Nice big fairways and greens. Nice carts and other accoutrements. There are a number of greater KC notable courses that I have never tried tho. For example, I haven’t played Iron Horse, and should try that one.
I've played Ironhorse a couple of times with Friends but its not really my favorite, also its like $80 even during the week.
Usually it just depends on where I can get a tee time since I don't usually plan more than 4-5 days out in advance.
Favorites -
Lady Sykes / St. Andrews - Both courses owned by Overland Park, really nice but hard to get a tee time on short notice.
Tomahawk - Owned by JOCO, can usually get a tee time here on short notice. Super hilly course but fun.
Sycamore Ridge - Way out in spring hill but its a good time, basically 2 different courses. Front 9 has tons of tree's and back 9 is alot more open with tall grass.
Fred Arbanas- KCMO course on longview lake with nice open fairways.
Places I play a ton because its easy to get a tee time and cheap.
Minor Park - KCMO course, great for beginners and for a quick round.
Swope Park - KCMO old timey course, its pretty short but lots of turns/doglegs and small greens.
Heart of America - KCMO 9 hole course, it could be 8 am on a sunday morning and you can still get a tee time in the next 2 hours for $20.
Painted Hills - Great life course that used to be real shitty but I played it for the first time in a couple years and it was actually in really good condition.
Teetering Rocks - Probably my favorite mix of course and tee time availability. It's an "Executive" course with 2 par 5's on the front 9 and a bunch of short par 4's and 3's on the back 9. Super duper cheap, like $45 with a cart on the weekends.
