Old Warson Country Club is one of the top courses in St. Louis, the state and the country. Although I play at OW a few times a year, I am not a huge fan of the course. For whatever reason, I have a hard time scoring well. The roughs are typically long and thick. I enjoy playing a course which is not so punitive, however, the members seem to enjoy the challenge – obviously a sadistic bunch. There is a premium for staying in the fairway. I do, however, love the club house. The food is as good or better than most clubs in St. Louis. They also built a beautiful outdoor bar which is spectacular particularly when the weather is cool enough to justify starting a fire in the fireplace. The outdoor dining area is conducive to much more socializing than most other clubs in St. Louis. I was there recently on a Friday night, after golf, and the patio was standing room only. Old Warson Country Club in St. Louis, Missouri is a great course and club.
Hi Mark,
We met Thursday at Forest Park golf course (Donna MacDonald’s neighbor). I decided to look up your website. What a wonderful idea to keep you busy in your “retirement”. My husband, Rocco, and I belong to Old Warson and I couldn’t agree more with your summary of the new outdoor bar area. We love it! He has been playing for a long time but I just picked it up a few years ago and can’t get enough of it. It was nice to meet you and I hope to run into you out there on one of the wonderful courses we have here in St. Louis.

Hi Ann. Thanks for reaching out. I play at OW quite often with one of my good friends.
I should have taken you and your friend’s picture and included it on the website.
Take care.
Old Warson hosted the Ryder cup in 1971 with the likes of Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Lee Trevino playing for the US. A huge honor that most St. Louis natives are not aware of.
