Detailed description of A. L. Gustin Golf Course

A. L. Gustin Golf Course, is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Columbia, Missouri,1/3 mile west of Faurot Field on Stadium Boulevard. A.L. Gustin, Jr. of Kansas City donated the land to the University of Missouri. This land was earmarked specifically for use as a golf course. The facility is open to the public, but its main mission is to serve the students, faculty, staff, and alumni of the University of Missouri.

In 1959, the University of Missouri-Columbia opened the A.L. Gustin, Jr. Golf Course. The golf course was designed by Floyd Farley.

This course was built on extremely hilly terrain, so expect uneven lies. The greens are large and easy to read. A lake comes into play on hole #5, a 215-yard, par 3. In addition, lateral hazards defined by red stakes come into play on eight holes and out-of-bounds stakes line five holes.
