Considered one of the top courses in Missouri, if not the nation, Dalhousie Golf Club in Cape Girardeau lives up to its reputation. It is not a typical country club; it is more of an Ozark resort-style course. They do all of the little things that only high-end course will do, such as having their logo embossed in the concrete paths throughout the grounds. From a marketing standpoint, they know their brand and they reinforce it in almost all aspects. I had the good fortune of playing Dalhousie a few years ago and they were having a tough summer, with many grasses suffering the effects of a hot and dry period. But, this time, the course played to a very high level and was a joy! It was running on all cylinders. A special thanks to John Oliver, Director of Membership, for his hospitality.
