As the snow continues to pound down on Michigan tonight, I am further resolved to escape next week to warmer climes. I think I can get from Ann Arbor to Knoxville, Tennessee in about seven hours—that’s a good day’s drive. Can someone recommend a couple of good public courses in the area?

Being so far away from Knoxville, I can’t really help you too much. I would recommend that you try a Bear Trace course, but it is probably another hour or so from Knoxville to the closest one (check http://www.tngolftrail.net/)
In Gatlinburg, I have been on two courses: Bent Creek http://www.bentcreekgolfcourse.com/
and Gatlinburg Muni http://www.gatlinburg-tennessee.com/golf.html
The Gatlinburg Municipal is of course located in Pidgeon Forge, not Gatlinburg – and it is outstanding. Bent Creek is a little rough, but a fun challenging mountain course; of the two Gatlinburg is in 10x better shape and conditions when I played last.
