Choctaw Country Club

The rolling hills of Alabama's Black Belt region create natural amphitheaters for golf, and this public track maximizes every elevation change with strategic bunkering that punishes wayward drives while rewarding precise iron play. Dense stands of pine and hardwood frame generous fairways that become considerably more demanding when the wind picks up, particularly on the exposed back nine where approach shots to elevated greens demand one extra club. For under $40, you're getting course conditions that rival many private clubs in the Southeast, plus a routing that keeps you thinking from the first tee through the 18th green.
