#4 RANKED PUBLIC ACCESS COURSE IN MISSOURI (2023 BY GOLFWEEK MAGAZINE)

Branson Hills Golf Club is a must-play for anyone planning a Branson golf vacation. It offers five distinct teeing areas, giving you options to play the course up to 7,324 yards. Designed by Chuck Smith with design consultant and PGA Professional, Bobby Clampett, this beautiful Branson golf course gets your attention immediately. The first hole plays from an elevated tee 400+ yards down to a green protected by a hazard on the left. Avoid the fairway bunkers left and right, keep your approach below the hole, and you’re off to a good start.

Top 3 Things We Like About Branson Hills Golf Club:

  1. It’s challenging!

  2. Always in excellent condition.

  3. Great layout with lots of elevation change.

Our Best Advice:

  1. Give your group a little extra time before your round. The driving range is a fairly long distance from the first tee.

  2. Play the correct tees and embrace the challenge.

  3. Celebrate a good round!

  4. Stay below the hole on #1!

  5. Think twice about hitting driver on #3.

Our Favorite Hole:

#11 Par 5. The tee shot and second shot are pretty straightforward. However, make sure you know the pin placement. The approach is uphill to a super long and narrow green with a false front.

Little Known Fact:

Branson Hills Golf Club was originally known as Payne Stewart Golf Club. During his career, Payne advocated that the rules of golf be changed to allow relief from a sand-filled divot under the theory of ground under repair. In Payne’s honor, a local rule was established to allow relief from a sand-filled divot. Although no longer known as Payne Stewart Golf Club, we encourage you to take advantage of Payne’s rule at Branson Hills.
