Walking a private course in the Southeast is a minor act of defiance against the region's cart-first defaults
Walking a private course in the Southeast is a minor act of defiance against the region's cart-first defaults. At Atmore, Alabama, 9 holes over 3,116 yards of rolling Bermuda terrain means the walk has substance. In Southern heat, it demands respect. Members who walk here have made a deliberate choice. The turf, the pace, the rhythm of play are better for it. Slope of 123 means the terrain has enough character to make the walk interesting without turning it into a slog. Summer heat in the Deep South is not a footnote. It's a condition. Morning tee times are not a preference. They're a plan.
