Dear Travel Professionals: Branson, Missouri offers Travel Agents big commissions – and the facts are in this guide. You have two choices for booking your clients’ Branson vacation: Accommodation Travel Packagers and Destination Travel Packagers – both offer commissions on lodging and most offer full commissions on a customized Branson vacation package that includes show and attraction tickets. Either way, booking Branson has never been easier and more profitable for you and your company. Earn higher commissions! Branson visitors see an average of four shows and other ticketed attractions per trip; in fact, the amount spent per trip on Branson entertainment is at times greater than for accommodations. You can earn extra commissions on these entertainment dollars by booking complete Branson vacations that are fully commissioned on lodging, attractions and shows. Save time and offer better customer service! Call toll-free to one of the businesses listed in this guide to book your client’s totally customized Branson vacation packages and let them take care of the details. These businesses know Branson well and can provide additional guest services for your clients when they are in Branson. Your clients will love Branson because we are famous for our warm hospitality and safe environment. It’s a place where age is honored, youth is celebrated, and service to God and country is revered.

The airfield consists of a single 7,140-ft.-long by 150-ft.-wide runway, a partial parallel taxiway, and an FAA air traffic control tower.

Branson Creek Golf Club
Payne Stewart Golf Club
Some of the Best Golf in the Midwest! Branson, Missouri is quickly becoming one of the most popular golf destinations in the United States. There are now more than a dozen courses for golfers of every caliber, and there’s not a better way to enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Ozark Mountains. And these wonderful golf courses are all within “driving range” of Branson’s shows. One of the newest courses, designed by Bobby Clampett, The Payne Stewart Golf Club is an 18-hole course named for the late, great golf pro Payne Stewart. He was from Springfield, Missouri, and the course honors his character with plaques at every hole. In addition, Branson Creek, was named “Top 100 in America” by Golf Digest and is an 18-hole championship course. It has been described as “playing two different courses” because of the elevation difference; the front nine plays the valley and the back nine plays the ridge. Many courses stay open year-round with reduced rates (November through March) and discounts for afternoon play during hot weather, for multiple players and in combination with lodging packages. Most of these courses can accommodate tournaments and corporate special events, and offer private instructions by appointment.
24

Ladies love golfing in Branson, too. Several of the courses are shorter, and many are designed for all skill levels, including forward tees, greens with open fronts, few forced carries and multiple tee boxes. The Branson Area Golf Council is a great source of information about the area’s courses. Visit www.golfbranson.com. With an outstanding list of honors and awards to their credit by Golf Digest, Golf Week, and Travel and Leisure Golf magazine among others, the Branson area’s thirteen courses are among the Midwest’s finest. Integrating inspired course designs by Tom Fazio and Jack Nicklaus with rugged Ozark Mountain topography, these courses offer scenic and challenging play for beginners and avid golfers alike.
