you can just let them be natural

That would limit where you can play golf to natural grasslands with grazing animals. Otherwise trees and shrubs would grow and make the sport as it is now impossible. Large open fairways don't tend to occur naturally so the sport would be more like put-put maneuvering around trees with short strokes than long hundred yard drives that you see on modern courses.

From what I've seen most courses are on land that would naturally be forest if they weren't watered and mowed regularly.

That's how the first golf courses were

The first courses were made in scotland after it had mostly been deforested and turned to sheep grazing land, not natural untouched wilderness.
