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 this Tuscaloosa club, 18 holes over 6,299 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 stays healthier. The rhythm slows down. The round actually feels like golf. A slope of 130 is honest work on foot. Summer in the Deep South is not a footnote. It is a condition. Morning tee times are not a preference. They are a survival strategy. Pace can stretch on busy days, so plan for an early start if you are leaving the cart behind.
