Spent last week in Chattanooga and got to play a few courses that I think are worth mentioning and recommending.

Played Wind Stone, Moccasin Bend, and Council Fire.  All three were challenging and in very good shape...Played Wind Stone and Moccasin Bend on days that were pretty breezy and Council Fire after a heavy rain the night before.

If you are going to be in Chattanooga and want to play, I would recommend any of these courses...

Reviving a very old thread..It's posts like this, even old ones that help someone down the road.   

The wife is looking to drive to Sarasota, Fl possibly the third week in February for two weeks.   10 hours in a car would be her max.   From our abode to Chattanooga, TN is close to the 10 hour trip.    I am taking my clubs, she wants a day spa or something relaxing (non-golfer).     

What's the weather like around the 3rd week of February, recommendations or comments on the courses that were listed by @Osnola and can I get recommendations for golf courses near Sarasota.   

The trip isn't a definite one but a high probability.

As it gets colder, I've toyed with the idea of taking a long weekend down that way.  My own frugality hasn't allowed it yet, but I've had a decent year and could probably afford it.

The thinking is that it might be just far enough south to be comfortable and just north enough to be inexpensive.

I was thinking about the week after Christmas though.

If you are stopping in Chattanooga - Sweeten's Cove is a must. It's only a 30 minute drive.

Sweetens Cove Golf Club is a nine-hole golf course in South Pittsburg, Tennessee, just 30 minutes from Chattanooga. Featured in The New York Times and ranked #50 on Golfweek's list of the Top 100 Modern Golf...

 

Absolutely agree. Play sweetens!

Just across the TN-GA line, Nob North is a great course to play.  It's not far from Chatt; just take 75 down and come back up.

You can also check out Bear Trace at Harrison Bay.  I played high school playoff golf there.

Very nice.   We've booked the Sarasota week in February and will probably hit Chattanooga either on the way down or back home.  Thanks

Afternoon all,

Looking for some recommendations for a couple courses to play in the Chattanooga area. My daughter has a volleyball tournament in Atlanta and we're stopping in the area on the way down.  Staying right off I-75 and Lifestyle Way if that helps for recommendations.  

Hoping to play a round with another volleyball dad the afternoon of Wednesday, March 31st and morning of Thursday, April 1st while the girls enjoy the pool at the hotel. 

I see Brainerd Golf Course and Brown Acres are very close by. Worth a go?

Thanks in advance.

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
