Overview
A far cry from the wide open links style at its sibling layout, the Schoolmaster course at The Shoals is a tree-lined design. Set beside the Tennessee River in northern Alabama, the track has a nice blend of doglegs that move in each direction, rewarding a variety of shot shapes. There are gradual elevation changes, including the climb up to the green on the par-4 18th, which sits atop a bluff overlooking the river.

“The Muscle Shoals version of the RTJ was very good. Beautiful location with some great scenery from the clubhouse to the course. My wife and I have played a few of the RTJ courses and Schoolteacher is right up there with athe best of them. Most definite worth a visit to Muscle Shoals and Northern Alabama to play these courses. We will definitely seize any opportunity to go back."

“Unlike its sister course Fighting Joe, Schoolmaster doesn't beat you over the head all day and has a good variety of hole shapes and elevation changes. Conditioning can be a bit of a crapshoot in summer with topdressing of greens but the layout does not disappoint. Great course for boys trips"

“Beautiful piece of property with spectacular views from course and clubhouse. Well maintained with generous fairways and green complexes Worth the trip to play although not the most memorable design."
