Course Report

The Troubadour Golf and Field Club features live music venues on property, embracing the heritage of Nashville and bringing a unique, music-driven atmosphere directly to its exclusive golf community.

About

Troubadour Golf and Field Club is a private, Tom Fazio-designed course set in the rolling hills outside Nashville. Opened in 2019, this 18-hole layout offers exclusive access to members, integrating natural Tennessee scenery with broad fairways, strategic bunkering, and resort-level amenities for an immersive luxury golf experience.

Caddie Tip

Precision off the tee is rewarded at Troubadour, especially with Tom Fazio's strategic bunkering. Fairways invite aggressive play, but approach shots require attention to elevation and false fronts. Respect the speed and contour of the greens, as they often run true and quick. Local knowledge can save strokes on subtle reads.

The Main Challenge

Troubadour's biggest challenge lies in managing green complexes and subtle elevation shifts. Tom Fazio’s bunkering demands thoughtful placement, and the Bentgrass greens can be lightning fast in season. Getting out of position on approach shots makes for difficult up-and-downs, especially with run-off collection areas.

The Good

Members and guests frequently praise the immaculate course conditions and the laid-back, social atmosphere. The setting offers panoramic Tennessee countryside views, complemented by attentive staff and stunning clubhouse amenities. The Tom Fazio design flows naturally with the landscape, providing a memorable round for all skill levels.

The Not So Good

Some members wish for greater variety in practice facility targets and more tee time flexibility for guests, as demand can make prime weekend hours challenging to secure. The exclusivity, while luxurious, occasionally limits opportunities for wider play and new member integration.
