My buddy and I are looking to play a course on the way to and from Bowling Green Ams. We're looking for somewhere between Asheville and Nashville and not far off-40 (10 or so miles).
Victor Ashe in Knoxville and Cane Creek in Cookeville look good but I was hoping for some other suggestions. Thanks

Will your route take you as far as Nashville? There are a number of good courses there, convenient to I-40.

Cane creek and VA are the two I would recommend the most. CC has a fairly open front and tight back with an nice island hole on #17. VA is somewhat similar to the open course at Cedarock (long and pretty much open). Morningside would be another good choice and is in downtown Knoxville. It is close to I-40 but the tees are kinda hard to find the first time out (marked by white/blue/red/orange spray paint). I would definately recommend hooking up with a local if you play MS. Are you planning on playing any of the Nashville courses? I would make it mandatory to hit Cedar Hill up on the way to BG.

yep, in Nashville, play Cedar Hill (just don't back into your parking place, i have learned that the hard way) It is possibly the best course I have ever played. Takes all kinda shots. Very well marked with the tee sign even saying what positioin the basket is in.

This information is based on two years ago, last time I played out there

This is what I use when I travel to find courses along the way. Google course map (http://www.referential-integrity.com/DiscGolfCourseGmap/)

Thanks for the info fellas. Looks like Cedar Hill may be a great choice for the way back.

Well, assuming your route takes you all the way to Nashville before turning north, or that you're willing to take that route, I concur that Cedar Hill is a great course. It's top-10 on my list of 85 or so, and I'd prefer it to any in Knoxville. Seven Oaks, also in Nashville, is a pretty good wooded course. Both are convenient to I-40 and the route north (I-65?). Should the route or time of day not work out, Victor Ashe in Knoxville would be my recommendation there.

By the way, that google course map is pretty nice. Wish I'd had it on some cross-country trips I made years ago.

7 oaks is the most popular Nashville course. I have not played it in years.

Cedars of Lebenon - nearly 20 years sence I played that one. I played it back before 1990 in either 88 or 89 and have not been back sense. Not because it was a bad course, but because there are new courses to check out in the Nashville area every time I go. (I make it there about once every 3 years or so)

The Google map is fun to play with. I used it when I went to Florida for the Disc Golf cruise to find a course on the way there and back. Also used it to find courses in Orlando and Arkansas on a different trip.

My buddy and I ended up playing Cedar Hill in Nashville on Monday morning and we were blown away. Not a single weak hole and beautiful scenery throughout. My new favorite course out of 44 played. Thanks for the advice, I don't think we coulda made a better choice with our schedule.

Glad it worked out for you and glad you liked it. And a little jealous (I miss playing Cedar Hill).

I once had a trip out west routed through Nashville. I pulled into Cedar Hill about 11 a.m. on Saturday, after 7 hours of driving, for a refreshing round before continuing my journey.....only to find a C-tier I was unaware of in progress, and the course unavailable. Imagine the disappointment.

yea, Cedar Hill in Nashville might be the best all around course I have ever played also. And that is out of 180 courses I have played.
