BIRMINGHAM / HOOVER, ALABAMA
Three different ways to play Oxmoor Valley, plus Ross Bridge when the boys want to make one round the premium round. Birmingham gives the group options without turning the trip into a windshield tour.
THE QUICK NTB VERDICT
NTB VERIFIED · AUG 12, 2026Oxmoor Valley handles volume and flexibility. Ross Bridge handles the nicer hotel-and-big-round version of the weekend. That mix is the real reason Birmingham works: the foursome can chase value, spend up once, or do both.
THE GOLF
The Ridge is one of the two full-length Oxmoor Valley anchors. On paper, it’s the round to pair with the Valley when the group wants a proper 36-hole day.
Championship round and a natural half of an Oxmoor Valley 36-hole day.View course →The Valley gives Oxmoor its second championship 18 and keeps a Birmingham buddy trip from depending on one big-ticket round.
The other half of an Oxmoor Valley 36-hole day or a standalone value-minded round.View course →Oxmoor’s Short Course is the flexible piece: useful on arrival day, after a full round, or when the whole group doesn’t need another driver-heavy beating.
Arrival-day golf, bonus holes or the lower-commitment round in the itinerary.View course →Ross Bridge is the premium swing of the Birmingham trip—the round and resort option that can turn a simple golf weekend into the nicer version of the weekend.

Verify current playability, conditions and the tee time before building the rest of the trip around it.
Choose Ridge, Valley or both. Let the Short Course flex around the championship rounds.
Book Ross Bridge for the resort experience or choose Birmingham / Hoover lodging independently for value. Treat every room rate as live.
BEFORE YOU GO
Confirm Ross Bridge playability and conditions, every tee time, live rate, cart terms, maintenance timing and what any provider quote actually includes. For the drive, Birmingham is a practical Southeast road-trip city and has commercial airport access—but travel time and flight options depend on where the group starts.
