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 Scottsboro, 9 holes over 2,760 yards of flat 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 pace feels right, and you actually notice the course instead of driving past 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 of play ratings run high here, which matters on a walking round where momentum is everything.
