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 Owensboro, Kentucky, 18 holes over 6,050 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 and the pace are better for it. Slope of 127 means the terrain has enough character to make the walk interesting without turning it into a slog. Summer mornings in Kentucky are the window for comfortable walking golf. Afternoons are negotiable depending on the month. Pace of play can stretch on busy days. Worth planning for an early tee time if you're walking.
