300 Timberline Trl,
Calera, Alabama 35040-4679
Opened in 2002, Timberline is the brainchild of PGA Tour pro and U.S. Open champion Jerry Pate. Jerry facilities2.jpgseemingly dropped this gorgeous course in the midst of mature hardwoods that border the fairways and give the club its name. Mr. Pate’s design includes plenty of rolling hills and picturesque vistas of the area.
Jerry Pate Design (JPD) is devoted to preserving the element of choice during play; to presenting optional routes of play, and to creating interest and variety in each golf hole. The dilemmas presented by choice enhance the joy derived from the sport, while the monotony created by excessively penal shot requirements reduce it to an exhaustive march of solely physical tasks.
Nestled near Calera in Shelby County, Timberline is a course for every skill level of golfer. A par-71 circuit with four sets of tees, Timberline plays from 4,808 to 6,745 yards — as much or as little challenge as you’re up to.
