What RTJ Trail golf courses to play?

Driving to Augusta in early April and trying to decide what courses to play. I've never played any of the RTJ courses and would like to play at 2 or 3 along the way any thinking that Ross Bridge, Oxmoor Valley, Grand National, Capitol Hill, Cambrian Ridge, Lakewood, and Magnolia are all possibilities and not out of the way. Wondering which ones to play

Ross bridge over Oxmoor.
They are down the street from each other but ross abridge is the more celebrated one.
Assuming you will only have time to play one of the other.

Ross Bridge > Oxmoor, though I really enjoyed the Ox every time I played. One of the courses there as some great elevation changes.
Capitol Hill is another one I always liked. The Judge is the most difficult course there but it has some really cool holes. I think the Senator is the links course that is said to be the worst of the 3. Legislator is alright.
If you play Magnolia, play the Falls course. It's more enjoyable (albeit slightly harder) than the Crossings. Lakewood is probably better than Magnolia Grove though it's not an RTJ design I don't believe. It was acquired as part of the trail later on.
Of the ones you listed, I would rank:
1. Ross Bridge
2. Lakewood
3 Capitol Hill
4 - 5 (tie). Grand National/Magnolia Grove (Falls)
6. Oxmoor Valley
7. Cambrian Ridge (long time since I played there so don't know how good it is now)

I would drive up I65 to I85 and play The Judge and the two courses at Grand National.

Our golf trip every year is at a different RTJ location. 5 rounds in 3 days.
Capitol Hill is nice because it has three good courses at the same spot.
Cambrian Ridge is unique, but its in the middle of fricking nowhere.
We did Grand National last year, and the courses were in great shape because they were preparing for the PGA tournament on the Lake Course.
Doing Ross Bridge and Oxmoor this year. Renting out a house about a 9-iron way from the Oxmoor clubhouse.
I've also played Magnolia and Lakewood. Nice but nothing special. I like Magnolia (the Falls course) more than Lakewood.
