Alabama's golf scene goes beyond the famed Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail, and the state's top 10 courses in 2015, as rated by golfers themselves, showcases a nice mix of plays from the Gulf to more rural areas.
How good is Alabama's golf scene in the eyes of the reviewers on Golf Advisor? Two courses made the top 50 U.S. list, and FarmLinks at Pursell Farms, a unique stay-and-play experience in its own right, made the top 10. And while the RTJ Trail (which has some selections in this top 10) made Alabama value well known, it was Gunter's Landing that was rated the No. 1 overall value course in the U.S. in 2015.
Courses were ranked based on a combination of their overall and subcategory ratings. You can click on each course to view ratings and review details.
