If you give a golfer a course, he or she is going to want a cart. And if you give a cart, he or she will want a bag of balls, a beer, and the ability to live forever. Anticipate nearly every need with today's Groupon: for $29, you'll get 18 holes of golf, a cart with GPS, a bag of balls, and a beer (or a non-alcoholic soda or bottle of water) at Adams Pointe Golf Club. Approximately 20 minutes from downtown Kansas City, the Blue Springs Championship course is one of the only five-star golfing grounds in the area, according to Tee Times Golf Guide, and has received critical acclaim from KC Golfer.

Lush greenery, stone-trimmed ponds, and sun-soaked bridges give the 18-hole Championship course its storybook beauty. Designed by notable local architect Don Sechrest, Adams Pointe features challenging elevation variation, scenic holes, and a front nine that includes one of the toughest par threes in the Kansas City area, according to Tee Times Golf Guide. A GPS cart preserves golfers' precious energy reserves as they play through the course's 18 holes (up to a $49 value). Hone skills until they're sharper than the scythe that shreds children's dreams, and knock off a small bag of balls (30–40 per bag, $5 value) on the acclaimed driving range. After the game, celebrate with a liquid of choice: domestic beer, bottled water, or a pop ($3 value).

Golf is one of the few sports a person can successfully play for a lifetime, and comes in handy for horror-movie auditions, weed whacking, and defending your home from a renegade windmill that can only be stopped by a properly timed ball that soars between the windmill's blades and lodges itself in its air intake pipe. This Groupon is valid any time during the week and Friday through Sunday after noon. Call ahead to schedule your tee time.

This Groupon is not valid on holidays or with Adams Pointe Golf Club's daily specials.
