Great Golf Courses Around Kansas City for Father's Day

As you may recall, for Mother's Day we explored the delicious and decadent activity of the afternoon tea. Since we didn't want our favorite fathers to feel slighted, this time, we are exploring a whole different type of "Tee Time". 

If you have ever lived away from this part of the Midwest for any length of time, you'll discover, upon your return, just how vibrantly green our lovely area is. One of the lushest displays of that lovely greenness are our abundant golf courses.

You would be hard-pressed to find a dad who would say no to a round of golf to celebrate his special day. Even if he is not a golf fan, who doesn't like driving the cart?

However, if playing an entire 18-hole round of golf just isn't his forte, don't worry, there are still many options available that involve a bit of putting around. Kansas City boasts some modern golfing experiences for the 21-plus crowd, and some very family-friendly options too. Read ahead for some in each category, so you can pick just the right fit for your outing.
