Rolling Bermuda terrain through Birmingham's Mountain Brook
Rolling Bermuda terrain through Birmingham's Mountain Brook. The blue tees stretch past 6,800 yards with a slope of 131, but drop to the white markers at 6,200 and the walk softens without losing its teeth. Four par 3s and three par 5s keep the rhythm varied. The 8th is the toughest test on the card. Cart culture runs deep here, which means walkers often get the course to themselves. Summer heat in the Deep South is not a footnote. It's a condition. Morning tee times aren't a preference. They're survival strategy.
