Leavenworth Golf Club

Leavenworth, about 30 minutes northwest of Kansas City, was originally organized as a private club in 1920. Today, it’s open to the public and offers a ball-striking test, with narrow corridors between trees and tiny greens. At just 5,900 yards from the tips, distance is not a requisite to scoring, but accuracy certainly is. The century-old course hosted the 1964 U.S. Girls’ Junior, won by Peggy Conley.
