From the Website:

The Missouri Bluffs Golf Club is widely considered to be one of the best championship courses in Missouri with its’ challenging layout and stunning vistas. Opened in 1995, it remains the only St Louis area golf club designed by legendary golf course architect, Tom Fazio. While nature laid the groundwork of our 235 acres, Mr. Fazio gently gave it a form that is both exhilarating to view and exciting to play. Throughout the 18-hole course, our zoysia fairways and Crenshaw Bentgrass greens are surrounded by large groves of mature trees on steeply hilled terrain. Course care and conditioning has always been our priority, and it clearly shows as we transition into a private, membership-based club. For a limited time our Number 1 ranked, public facility is still open for outside play.

General Review
Pros: - course condition, plush zoysia fairways
- surroundings, nature preserve
- smart, modern design
- great use of the land and elements
Cons: - green complexes get a bit over-played by the afternoon, excessive number of ball marks
- all three front nine par 3's generally played with the same club.
Overall Thoughts: The Missouri Bluffs Golf Club is carved out of the banks of the river bluff and is frequented by deer, eagles and many other forms of wildlife. The course has many holes that funnel or contain collection areas in the landing areas of the fairway. The green complexes are large and generally slope from back to front with well placed bunkers capturing off line approaches, The Bluffs is a must play in the St. Louis Area and is also one of the busiest courses, as well. So relax, enjoy you're surroundings and get lost amongst the old growth forest.
What do you usually shoot for 18 holes?: Under 80
