Nashville & Tennessee golf trip questions

Is Nashville good for a bachelor-party golf trip?

It's one of the best. Daytime golf at the Hermitage or Gaylord Springs and nights on Broadway make it easy to plan for big groups.

Is Sweetens Cove worth the drive from Nashville?

For golf-architecture fans, yes. It's about two hours from Nashville and 30 minutes from Chattanooga, so many groups add a Chattanooga night and Bear Trace at Harrison Bay.
