If you are planning a golfing excursion, make sure you consider Branson, Missouri. While Branson is not located in southern Florida or on the California coastline, Branson matches these golfing hotspots with its ideal climate and lengthy list of incredible courses. Located in the scenic Ozark Mountains, this area in Southwest Missouri is home to some of the country’s top golf courses. Each year, groups plan their trips here to experience the challenging courses in Branson.

Whether it is your first time on the links, or you are an experienced golfer, there are courses in Branson to match any skill level. From corporate event packages to leisure trips for friends, thousands of golfers choose Branson for their vacation each year.

The Branson Climate Makes Golfing Easy Any Time

Home to various outdoor activities, Branson’s seasonal shifts are ideal for the golf lover because they make a trip to the links possible almost any day of the year.

Summer is the most popular season for Branson golfers, offering plenty of sunshine and temperatures warm enough to allow shorts on the course. With mild spring and autumn seasons, temperatures typically range from 50 to 80 degrees in April, May, September and October. High temperatures in November can approach 60 degrees, which gives holiday vacationers an excuse to fit in another 18 holes before the frost of the winter. Most courses are open year-round, too, so don’t be surprised to find yourself on the course in the middle of December.

With dramatic elevation shifts in the Ozark Mountains, many of these courses offer especially challenging holes for advanced players. Regardless of experience, the views of the surrounding lakes and mountain peaks provide a beautiful backdrop for each round.

Payne Stewart Golf Club is also in Branson, which is another excellent course to include on your tour of the area’s fairways. Golf Digest noted Ledgestone Country Club as “a masterpiece of mountain golf architecture”, and its beautiful 18 holes live up to this name.
