I agree with the thought that when a golf course has long walks and obstacles that the walker has to use a cart path to get to the next point, it seems, the course really is not walkable. Those who say that they find that TR was walkable should rexexamine what if they were not with a group of other walkers, and how long it was between shots. I doubt if those who walked what was the length of your round.
Mr. Cole was accurate in his thought, but just picked the wrong course to use as an example.
Granted every course is walkabkle, but how REALISTIC is the walk. Some walks are more enjoyable than others.
We have one course in Ohio, that provides a ski lift to the next hole for walkers, probably without this lift, those walker could walk up the cart path, but is it really a walkable golf course.
