Why We Walk

Walking isn’t just tradition—it’s an experience. When you walk, you see the course the way its architect intended, flowing naturally from green to tee. You feel the terrain under your feet, sense the subtle slopes, and notice details you’d never catch riding in a cart. It’s exercise, meditation, and competition all rolled into one.

At our events, walking isn’t just encouraged—it’s part of the culture. Whether you’re grinding out a qualifier or enjoying a fun two-man format, walking keeps the game authentic and shared. We’ve always believed that golf played on foot builds friendships as much as it builds scorecards.

Enter WalkingGolfer.com

That’s why we were excited to discover WalkingGolfer.com. It’s a site dedicated entirely to one thing: helping golfers find and rate walking-friendly courses across the USA. Through their interactive map and “Rate a Course” feature, you can explore which courses are designed with walkers in mind, and share your own experiences with others who prefer the game step by step.

Think of it as a Yelp for walking golfers—a community-driven hub where walkability is the number one rating factor.

The Joys of Walking, Reinforced

WalkingGolfer.com highlights benefits we already know well:

• Exercise — Up to five miles of natural movement per round.
• Connection — More time with playing partners between shots.
• Authenticity — Experiencing golf as it was originally intended.
• Savings — No cart fees, just pure golf.

For us, this isn’t just theory—it’s what we live at AmateurGolf.com events. We see players choosing to walk because it sharpens focus, slows the round in the best way, and reminds us all why we fell in love with golf in the first place.

AmateurGolf.com and WalkingGolfer.com share a common mission: celebrating the traditions that make golf special. While we highlight the tournaments, stories, and equipment of the amateur game, WalkingGolfer.com gives players a tool to discover the best courses to walk and rate their experiences.

So next time you tee it up—whether in one of our events or your local weekend round—ditch the cart and take the walk. Then head to WalkingGolfer.com to share your course experience and discover where to play next.

Experience WalkingGolfer.com — and experience golf the way it was always meant to be played.
