  1. Nashville Golf and Athletic Club

1703 Crockett Springs Trail, Brentwood, TN 37027

“Through the placement of four sets of tees, the course can be an entertaining 6,340-yard "member trip" (5,121 yards for women members) or stretched to a demanding 7,440 yards in which the sleeping giant is awakened and all 76 bunkers figure prominently in the par 72 journey. The thrill of a well-struck shot is rewarded. The poorly-played stroke is costly. But, in either case, replaying the round is enhanced by the time-honored atmosphere of the game with the clubhouse surroundings in the tradition of the "Honorable Company of Edinburgh Golfers". The mood here is strictly golf.”
