Florissant Golf Club

What Florissant Golf Club does

Florissant Golf Club is a municipal 18-hole championship public golf course operated by the City of Florissant, Missouri, located at 50 Country Club Ln on approximately 135 acres. The par-72 layout measures 6,509 yards from championship tees and features bent grass greens and zoysia fairways, having been open to the public continuously since 1964. The course is staffed by a small team (approximately 6 employees) under Golf Clubhouse Manager Sam Freihoff and Assistant Golf Clubhouse Manager Grant Baumgartner.

The business operates a direct-to-consumer public-golf model with secondary event-driven revenue from tournament hosting. Core revenue streams include green fees (weekday $25-$38, weekend $25-$47 for 9 or 18 holes, cart included), tournament hosting packages for groups of 40+ players, a fully stocked pro shop, and a full-scale food and beverage facility with a 3,000 sq. ft. deck. Pricing is structured across public, resident, and senior/junior tiers, with an in-season window from March through November. Recurring programs include a weekly Senior Scramble Group (Thursday 8 AM) and themed events such as the "Luck of the Irish" 4-Person Scramble.

The company's technology footprint is minimal: its website and online tee time booking are powered by Golf Channel Solutions, and marketing channels are limited to a company website, Instagram, Facebook, and an email newsletter (E-Club). The business model is unanchored to any technology platform or proprietary IP beyond the physical course asset itself. Customer segments include individual public golfers, local residents (via a resident discount tier), senior golfers (55+), and tournament organizers for corporate outings, charity events, and organized scrambles. The marketing posture emphasizes country club-quality conditions and service at public-course prices.

Broad incumbents

• American Golf Corporation: One of the largest private operators of golf courses in the United States, managing a portfolio of public and private facilities. Relevant as a broad incumbent demonstrating the scale of multi-course commercial golf operations versus Florissant's single municipal asset.
• Invited Clubs (formerly ClubCorp): Large operator of private and semi-private golf and country clubs across the U.S. Comparable in core offering (golf, F&B, events) but positioned at the private/membership end of the market versus Florissant's public-access model.
• Troon: Large third-party golf course management company operating hundreds of courses globally, providing hospitality, F&B, and tournament services — broadly comparable in offering mix (course, F&B, events) though at vastly greater scale.
