Upcoming trip to Kansas City, 2 rounds can be played. Any ideas?

I have been told to try Iron Horse and Dubbs Dred. Also, was told St. Andrews was good. But we have seen some bad weather damaged golf courses here in Oklahoma this year. Had freeze that turned rain into ice and it sat around in spring destroying grass everywhere. Hopefully KC was not hit by the same. But anyhow, my wife and I are headed up there in the later part of September for a couple days of golf and and some other shenanigans. So, any locals or travelers that know the area well. I will be driving so we can go anywhere, but staying in  the Overland Park area south of KC.

Moved out the KC area about 12 years ago.  Iron Horse and Dubbs are both excellent courses.  A little hidden gem that I always enjoyed playing when I lived there was Swope Memorial GC. Awesome views of downtown KC and the course is near the zoo on a couple of the holes you can hear the animals.  Course is is very hilly and (unless they changed it) the greens are original size to when it was built,  I think back in the 1920s.  They have some very small greens compared to modern golf courses.   Target golf at its max if you want to hit greens in regulation at Swope.  Where ever you end up playing, enjoy your trip and I recommend you make time to see the Negro Leagues Baseball hall of fame.  Baseball fan or not you will not be disappointed.
