uh Shreveport has like 2 or 3 too.

Franklin, TN has population of 65k and we have 5, I'm sure BR proper can support 2.

it's not really about the population, it's about the money.

Even the Westbank in Nola (pop. ~250K) has three country clubs.

A lot of the racist old timers are dying off. When I was young enough to bum off my parents account I used to play in a flex tennis league, I would invite people to play at BRCC all the time and there were 2 black guys in my league that came and played there with me and although I could sense some tension from them I never sensed any from the staff or members. Also this is sad that this is news but Patrick Peterson played golf there almost a month ago, hopefully soon there will be more black members and people won't have to tell stories to defend what I think is an awesome club.
It is definitely a superb country club and I do think it's changing, just slower than the outside world.
I hear Pat Pete is one helluva golfer.

Correct.
It's about population numbers of certain socioeconomic levels and demographics.
Franklin TN is one of the wealthiest counties around I believe. There aren't poor people in Franklin besides farm hands.

Not a country club

I guess it depends on what people call a country club. So Franklin, TN has 5 clubs with golf, tennis, and dining club house?

There are a lot of clueless people on here full of gossip and assumptions.
Country club life is great!

I didn't know we had any black members, where are you getting your info? I'm not trying to be racist, but some things should just be left alone.

BRCC is just Sherwood without a concrete ditch. It's comedy to me that golfers want to play there.

Nope. Guess you can't play there.
Played it before and it was awesome.

They are extremely picky...and racist. They turned down Michael Jordan to play there because of some bullshite "No guests on Saturday" or something. He was welcomed at CCL.
Didn't the same thing happen to Darius Rucker? He was in town for Bayou Country Superfest and wanted to play
