SPRINGFIELD GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB

The rolling Ozark foothills provide natural elevation changes that transform what could have been another flat Missouri municipal into something with genuine character and strategic interest. Water comes into play on seven holes, but it's the sloping lies and tiered greens that separate the wheat from the chaff here. At under $40 for 18 holes, this public track delivers old-school shot values that most private clubs would envy.
