Golfing Montgomery Alabama with local Golf Course Information

One of the best things to happen in Alabama recently has been the creation of the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail (RTJ). The "Trail" was funded ($140 million) by the Retirement Systems of Alabama With 10 course sites spread throughout Alabama and 432 holes covering over 100 miles of golf, the trail has been a magnet to golf enthusiast throughout the world. About 500,000 rounds of golf are played on the trail each year. The eighth golf course constructed by Mr. Jones, the jewel of the trail, is Capitol Hill located in Prattville. 28 page (2008) RTJ Trail guide (pdf file)

Over 340 holes of "local area" golfing. If you were to figure 10 minutes of green time for an average group of 3 playing together, 10 hours of playing per day, six days a week (one down day a week) and 44 weeks a year (allowing 8 weeks of weather and additional down time). This would provide approximately 1.62 million holes of golf available to play each year!
