Brewton at Country Club of Brewton

The Country Club of Brewton occupies a setting in south Alabama near the Florida border, where the landscape features the rolling terrain and pine forests characteristic of the region. Jerry Pate, a former U.S. Open champion who transitioned to golf course architecture, designed the course. Pate's design work in the Southeast typically emphasizes playability across skill levels while incorporating the natural topography and vegetation of each site.

The routing at Brewton works with the property's elevation changes and wooded corridors, creating holes that move through stands of longleaf and loblolly pine. The course layout reflects Pate's approach of providing strategic options from the tee while maintaining accessibility for the club's membership. Water features and bunker placement define key decision points, particularly on approach shots where green contours reward accurate iron play.

The club serves as a recreational and social center for the Brewton community, a small city in Escambia County with deep roots in the timber and paper industries. The membership draws from local families and professionals, and the facility provides a traditional country club experience with dining and event spaces complementing the golf course. The layout sees regular use for member competitions and regional amateur events typical of clubs in smaller Southern towns.
