| Frequently Asked Questions
Is The Golf Club of Kansas a Public Golf Course or Private Golf Club?
The Golf Club of Kansas is a Private Golf Club with a twist, allowing some Unaccompanied Guest Play in off-peak times as established by the Club. This means that, in addition to Member play:
- Non-Members may play, if starting times are available, in off-peak hours. Non-Members may call for those unused starting times up to 2 days in advance.
How many guests can a Member have at one time?
A Member may bring up to three guests Monday through Thursday for the Accompanied Guest rate of $54 (this includes cart and sales tax). Any additional guests in a trailing group or groups will be handled at the discretion of the Head Golf Professional at the Unaccompanied Guest rate of $69 (includes cart and sales tax). Members may bring one Accompanied Guest only Friday, Saturday afternoon, Sunday or Holidays for $59.00 each (includes cart and sales tax). Guests are not allowed before noon on Saturdays.
Is there a "Lifetime" or Equity Membership available?
Yes, we have a very limited number of these Investment memberships available that offer you no cost golf for the term of ownership. Please see Club Founder Tom Kelly for details.
How much guest play will there be?
The total amount of guest play will be closely monitored and controlled by the Head Golf Professional. Unaccompanied Guest play will be restricted to off peak hours established by the Club. Approved Unaccompanied Guests will then be allowed to make starting times for unused times up to two days in advance.
Will there be Golf Outings and Tournaments that limit Member play?
We will occasionally entertain Charity Golf Outings and host Regional or National Tournaments. These will be publicized at least 30 days in advance to all Members. Members will be offered the opportunity to participate in such events, if qualified, and we will strive to have no more than two such events per month. Regular Club events will also be scheduled for Members only.
How many days per week will the course be open?
The course will be open 7 days per week March through November on a weather permitting basis. Winter weather conditions will dictate play December, January and February with multiple unplayable days likely. We may close early or have limited services on selected Holidays and there may also be days when the course is closed for maintenance or events. Those dates will be published at least 30 days in advance.
Will there be any mens, womens, couples, senior, or junior programs?
While there will be numerous playing and instruction programs for all of these groups throughout the season, and those activities will only use small blocks of playing times, we will not have gender specific or similarly exclusive "reserved" days or mornings where others are prevented from using open playing times.
Will walking be allowed?
