Oakland Back Course
Pros: Several pin placements allow this course to range from 5,500' to over 7,000' (championship calibre). Recoverability from bad drives is usually more than fair. Has a good mix of long and short holes.
Cons: Needs a a bridge on holes 7, 9, 15, 16 & 17 (lots of water, and not great ways to cross), especially for kids. Some small amounts of poison ivy in the roughs on holes 5-15. The cedars need to be manicured and trimmed higher so as to retrieve errant shots easier. Needs new signage with up to date measurements and pdga par ratings for each division (this should be happening in the next month)

Pros: Great use of the woods. You are rewarded with clear shots if you stay on the fairways but it's not like those other courses where if you get offtrack you want to throw your discs away. Throw over a pond on holes 16 and 17. Mowed and hole changes frequently. And even though it goes through woods, the fairways are cleared out except for the trees strategically left there. The best part is the use of the creeks that meander throughout. Multiple pin placements give nice variation. Easy Navigation. The course is forgiving enough for beginners but creative enough to give experienced players a challenge to get that low score. Also the Oakland front course is right there as a very nice complement for 36 holes of golf. Indian Hills is close-by if you just can't get enough.
Cons: I really can't think of anything bad to say about this course. There aren't huge elevation changes but then you don't really notice it given the creative design.
Other Thoughts: This is my favorite course I've played. It's in Columbia, MO--great college town so there's plenty of things to do.
