RTJ – Muscle Shoals
October 21, 2016 - October 24, 2016
75$/round
Excerpted from Wally’s comment:
Roger Steve Ken & I played RTJ Trail at Hampton Cove River & Highlands and RTJ Muscle Shoals Schoolmaster & Fighting Joe on Oct 21 – 24. Enjoyed both stops but the consensus was that Muscle Shoals was better. The courses were challenging but fair & only 6 hours away.
When we went to Birmingham in May the courses were packed. However that was not the case in Oct at either stop.
Apparently SEC football keeps a lot of golfers off the courses. We moved our entire trip back one day due to the forecast with no problem.
Below is original post regarding trip:
Robert Trent Jones – Muscle Shoals/Huntsville Trip
Here’s the update from Wally:
Looks like we are going to play the Robert Trent Jones trail Oct 6 & 7 in Huntsville at Hampton Cove and then going to play Muscle Shoals Oct 8 & 9. You can play both stops or just one. Both are about 6 hours from STL – costs approximately $75 round. Steve is taking care of hotels. I am booking golf soon. It’s easier to book now and get tee times, so let me (Wally) know as soon as possible if you are interested. You can cancel up to 30 days in advance.

If there is sufficient interest in returning to Muscle Shoals we could probably wait until we are under 30 days out to book & try to pick a weekend of Alabama home game. There also may be some discounts available if we wait.
We are also planning to go somewhere in the spring too but that trip will require more advance planning. Maybe we can discuss that in Vegas.
There are a couple alternative dates being discussed but they are either a week earlier or 2 weeks later. Hope to pin it down next week.
I am still babysitting so can not make trip.
