PERSIMMON WOODS GOLF CLUB
🇺🇸 Weldon Spring, MO, USA
Designed by Keith Foster


Persimmon Woods, nestled in the rolling landscape of Weldon Spring, Missouri, is a haven forged in the late 1980s, a departure from the prevailing architectural trends of its time. The course, while not broadly heralded on a national scale, presents a compelling, player-friendly design, demanding thoughtful strategy over brute power.
Originally conceived by Gary Kern, the layout meanders through a landscape dotted with mature hardwoods and subtle elevation changes. Errant tee shots are often forgiven, yet the approaches to well-guarded greens require careful consideration of distance and trajectory. This emphasis on playability has fostered a loyal and decidedly unpretentious membership, bound by a shared appreciation for the game's simple pleasures.
Beyond the course itself, Persimmon Woods cultivates a vibrant social atmosphere. The club, known for its casual, relaxed ambiance, is perhaps equally celebrated for its post-round camaraderie, with members often recounting epic shots, and near misses, over a cold beverage and plate of the Club's signature smoked wings.
