Hillwood Country Club

Walking a private course in the Southeast is a minor act of defiance against the region's cart-first defaults. At Hillwood, 18 holes over 6,903 yards of rolling Bermuda terrain means the walk has substance. Southern heat demands respect. Members who walk here have made a deliberate choice. The turf holds better. The pace improves. The round means more. A slope of 131 is honest. This course asks something of you physically. Summer mornings in Tennessee are the window for comfortable walking golf. Afternoons are negotiable depending on the month. Pace of play ratings run high here, which matters when you're on foot and momentum is everything.
