The Largest Golf Course Construction Project Ever Attempted
Golfers across the globe have Dr Dave Bronner to thank for the incredible layouts we can experience on The Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail. In the 1980’s he set about creating a host of golf courses that would provide a stunning framework to boost the state of Alabama. As the CEO of Retirement Systems of Alabama, Bronner decided that helping the state of Alabama would make the company stronger by boosting tourism, providing economic growth and also some potential retiring golfers. As a golf tourism destination, the Robert Trent Jones Trail is at the very top of what you could expect, with a wide variety of courses available, and as many as 12 different tees to select, regardless if you are a casual golfer or tournament professional, you are sure to find something suitable at this incredible destination.
