Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail At Capitol Hill: The Judge
Prattville, AL • Public

unknown





Overview
Appropriately named for its location just outside Alabama’s state capital, the Judge course at Capitol Hill opens with one of the more memorable holes on the Trail. The opener plays straight down hill to a green perched along the backwaters of the Alabama River. With water in play on 14 of 18 holes, the Judge—currently ranked fifth on our Best in Alabama list—demands your best ball-striking, most notably on the island-green par-3 sixth.

“One of the most challenging courses on the RTJ Trail. Good design variety with lots of interesting holes. Fifteen holes have some water. Lots of wildlife...turkeys, geese, turtles. Very nice ambience and very friendly staff. A really nice day at a nice price."
