I think he meant there are no executive courses south of 44 and north of the Turnpike. All of the ones that you mentioned are south of 44 and south of the Turnpike.
If you live in Chitty Chatty, Bradford, Hawkins, Cason Hammock, St. Catherines, and Citrus Grove, it is difficult to get to these courses by golf cart. To get to the ones south of the Turnpike by golf cart takes a long time as you have to go up to Water Lily Bridge and then back down to the courses. This is about 10 miles depending on where you live.
If you look at a map of The Villages, it appears that every home north of 44 and every home south of the Turnpike is within a mile, or at most two miles, of an executive course. There are 13 north of 466; there are 16 between 466 and 466A; there are 6 south of 466A and north of 44; there are 0 between 44 and the Turnpike, and there are 5 south of the Turnpike.

And, if you look at that same map, you'll see that most of the houses in the villages you mentioned are built on a relatively narrow sliver of land, east of Morse, with the exception of where they built the Championship course.
There simply wasn't enough square footage to build the traditional executive courses, surrounded by homes...
