Great course for all skill levels with 3 different tee pads. Although, it could use a lot of under brush removal.

This is a really fun course. All but 3 holes are in the woods. All holes are well kept. Great family friendly area.

Course is very wooded and can be punishing. But if you hit your lines you wil rewarded with some awesome shot shapes. The course is even fun to play from the shorts, which for me is a huge plus and not something I usually say. With the baskets being moved monthly it is a great asset to T-Town

Great course. Wooded holes are long and technical. A lot of up and down holes.

This is a difficult but good course. I give this course an A+ because its very professional and very scenic. However, if you are worried about losing a disc or new to the game, you should not play this course. The majority of holes are deep in the forest and full of very thick vegetation. Many nice elevation changes and turns right and left with lots of variety. Apart from the difficulty, everything else about this course is perfect. There are different hole locations.

Love this course. One of my favorites in the state for sure. Great woods course with challenging but fair shots.

This is the gem of Tuscaloosa. Bowers was cleaned up pretty throughly at the end of 2019 and alot of the dead trees and underbrush were removed. The local club and PARA do a good job of keeping it better maintained.

With three different teepads and three different pin positions per hole this course doesn't get stale. It will test you shot shaping ability and is beautiful walk through the woods. If you haven't played Bowers recently I'd encourage you to.

When tees are all in long, some holes can seem impossible but are parable for sure. On the other hand, when in short this is my favorite of courses ive played overall. Overall a great course with challenging shots.

This is the course that I learned the game on. If your looking for a tight wooded, fair course than this is a beauty. It'll strech your arm but keep you honest. Don't get greedy. Take what the course gives you and you'll enjoy every min. Play aggressive and get off line and you'll be punished.

Definitely worth playing, if you were in the Tuscaloosa area. A lot of decent tough shots. Very few holes to really open up your drive, though. Well, worth the 2 hours spent.

This is a super fun course. The first three holes are wide open and fairly easy, but holes 4-18 are all in the woods with very tight fairways and lots of elevation change. There are multiple pin placements and multiple tees. This was slightly problematic as the current pin placement was not identified on the map, so I had to walk some of the fairways to spot the pin on blind drives. Other than that, the course was very easy to navigate and super fun to play.

Very nice technical course with plenty to offer. The first 3 holes are decently open and played through some nice trees. Everything else plays through some seriously heavy woods. All the holes were in the "C" configuration, which appeared to be the long setting for all but the first 2 holes. I can say that this is a course where you will need to be able to "thread the needle", or else get lucky with a ricochet. Bowers Park appears to be a nice park. The signage was currently down for re ...

Great course all around, but even better to play in the fall/winter considering visibility. Grew up playing this course and the upkeep seems to be getting better and better.

One of my favorite courses in Alabama so far. 3 sets of tees and multiple basket locations. Heavily wooded but fair. Good mix of distances. Seems like a ton of holes play left to right. Folks that maintain this course do a great job. Worth a drive to play this course.

This course could be SWEET! There is a ton of shule after you get past hole 3, all the way to 18. It plays like ERP, brutal from the long tees. With some major shule removal, this would be an easy A. All the shule looks like its been cut, and left in the fairways. You could throw from the middle of the fairway, and be standing on piles of limbs and debris.

My least favorite course in alabama I have played. There was a lot of poison ivy and very eroded hills to go up and down. Heavy wooded course.
