Capitol Hill - The Senator

Golf

One of the most popular sites on the Trail, Capitol Hill in Prattville, continues to get praises from golfers and golf writers alike. The Senator is a traditional Scottish-style layout. Over 150 pot-hole bunkers are situated throughout the 18 holes, and mounds 20 to 40 feet in height engulf the landscape, cleverly hiding the cart path or any other hole from the fairway. The Senator's bent-grass greens provide exceptional conditions 12 months a year. The Senator was named among the Top 10 New Courses in the nation by Golf magazine.
