Alabama
The Shoals – Schoolmaster Course
Book now online or by phone
Florence, Alabama
Architect: Robert Trent Jones
Par: 72
Slope: 143
Opened: Summer of 2005

The Schoolmaster (named for President Woodrow Wilson who was responsible for getting Wilson Dam built on the River and who was known as The Schoolmaster of Politics) opened in the Summer of 2005.

The tree lined course is more traditional golf with every hole in keeping with the natural topography along the Tennessee River.  It is wooded, rolling and spectacular.  First reports indicate The Schoolmaster may be a tougher course than Fighting Joe, but only time will tell.  One thing’s for sure, it’s a short makers golf course with narrow fairways, tree lined greens, and still a length of nearly 8,000 yards!

It’s hard to beat the beauty that Hole #18 holds on the high bluffs over the river, but the waterfall on Hole #2 sure comes close.  Make sure you have done your homework well, for The Schoolmaster will certainly test all of your skills.
