Municipal golf in the South is a statement of democratic access in a region where private clubs dominate the conversation
Municipal golf in the South is a statement of democratic access in a region where private clubs dominate the conversation. Birmingham's Roebuck keeps the game available to anyone who shows up with clubs and shoes. Walking here is a choice that the cart culture around it doesn't always make easy, but the flat terrain supports it. Slope of 113 puts this squarely in moderate territory. Enough movement to notice, not enough to dread. 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. Pace can stretch on busy days, so grab an early slot if you're walking.
