Fighting Joe Course
The Fighting Joe course at the Shoals is another Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail course, and it was the first to break 8,000 yards on the RTJ Golf Trail. The course is located on the Tennessee River between the Wheeler and Wilson dams, and the Wheeler Dam is named for General Joseph "Fighting Joe" Wheeler, as is the course.
The monster par 5 12th hole, which spans 716 yards from the back tees, is the longest hole on this challenging links course. Some players say that the stunning 17th hole is the course's trademark hole, but the Tennessee River, which the 18th green overlooks, is difficult to ignore.
- Distance: 8,092 yards
- Par: 72
