Oklahoma private clubs don't always make walking easy
Oklahoma private clubs don't always make walking easy. Meadowbrook does. Eighteen holes through Tulsa's rolling terrain at a slope that keeps you honest without punishing you for leaving the cart behind. The 6,741 yards from the blacks play longer when you're carrying, but the routing respects the walker's legs. Three par 5s spread across the round give you room to breathe between the grind. Hole 16 is the number one handicap. A par 4 that earns its reputation late in the round when legs are tired and focus matters most. Pace holds steady here. Members who know the course tend to walk it. That tells you something about how the layout flows.
