If
you
live
in
-or
frequent
-
the
Nashville
area
and
enjoy
the
game
of
golf,
you
have
a
few
private
clubs
to
choose
from.
Among
them
is
the
Westhaven
Golf
Club,
home
to
a
magnificent
Arthur
Hills
championship
golf
course.
Westhaven
provides
the
perfect
place
for
golf
enthusiasts
of
all
levels
to
enjoy
the
game
in
a
casual
and
friendly
environment.
Since
opening
in
2009,
Westhaven
has
received
national
recognition
for
its
design
and
attention
to
detail.
GolfWeek
and
Golf
Digest
both
named
Westhaven
to
their
"2010
Best
New
Courses"
list.
Before
parting
ways,
Mark
directed
me
to
the
practice
area,
a
place
I
could
have
easily
spent
the
day.
In
addition
to
a
full-length
driving
range
where
you
can
hit
every
club
in
your
bag,
there’s
a
short
game
chipping
area
with
multiple
bunkers,
a
fairway
bunker
for
long-range
sand
shot
practice,
and
a
large
practice
putting
green.
The
practice
facility
is
open
year-round.
In
case
your
old
clubs
aren’t
treating
you
the
way
you
think
they
should
(or
vice
versa)
the
golf
shop
has
access
to
all
of
the
top
brands
including
Titleist,
Callaway,
TaylorMade,
Miura,
Mizuno,
PXG,
and
more!
They
also
have
a
great
selection
of
high-quality
logoed
apparel
and
all
of
the
golf
accessories
you
need
to
have
an
enjoyable
round.
I
learned
from
the
Westhaven
website
that
all
of
the
holes
of
names.
Number
3
Is
named
“Otter”
and
is
a
par
5
that
plays
484
yards
from
the
Blue
tees.
The
landing
area
has
a
lone
pot
bunker
that
needs
to
be
avoided
at
all
costs.
Should
you
hit
a
good
drive,
Otter
is
going
to
present
you
with
a
choice.
There’s
a
creek
that
crosses
the
fairway
about
100
yards
in
front
of
the
green.
There’s
a
little
room
to
the
right
if
you
want
to
bail
out,
but
then
you’ll
have
to
deal
with
two
pot
bunkers
between
you
and
the
green.
Should
you
decide
to
go
for
the
green,
beware
of
the
lake
to
the
left
of
the
elevated
green.
I
think
I
know
why
they
call
this
hole
Otter;
if
you
pull
your
2nd
shot
left,
you
“otter”
drop
another!
Number
7
(Snapper)
is
a
par
3
that
plays
180
yards
from
the
Blue
tees.
Most
players
will
hit
a
mid
to
long
iron
or
hybrid
into
a
boomerang-shaped
green
that
is
guarded
on
the
left
by
a
pond.
Should
you
need
to
bail
out
of
the
tee,
there’s
some
room
to
the
right
of
the
green
that
will
leave
several
pitch
options
for
a
chance
at
par.
Number
11
is
a
risk/reward
hole
aptly
named
“Decision.”
If
you
have
the
distance
off
the
tee,
you
have
to
give
it
a
go.
This
short
par
4
is
listed
at
280
yards
but
because
it’s
downhill
it’s
considerably
shorter.
It
takes
about
a
240-yard
carry
to
get
over
the
thin
strip
of
wetlands
at
the
bottom
of
the
hill.
The
green
sits
a
few
feet
above
the
fairway
and
there’s
a
pot
bunker
in
front
that
sees
its
share
of
play.
A
few
subtle
undulations
in
the
green
can
make
a
two-putt
challenging.
The
safe
play
is
to
lay
up
short
of
the
wetlands,
hit
your
short
pitch
up
to
the
green,
and
putt
for
birdie.
Number
14
(Harpeth)
is
the
most
picturesque
hole
on
the
course.
This
dogleg
left
par
5
plays
533
yards
from
the
Blue
tees
and
borders
the
Harpeth
River.
Play
your
tee
shot
downhill
towards
the
cluster
of
bunkers.
More
bunkers
dot
the
landscape
on
your
way
to
the
green,
however,
the
landing
area
for
your
layup
shot
is
pretty
open.
Play
your
approach
shot
over
a
couple
of
pot
bunkers
to
an
elevated
green
that
is
long
and
very
narrow.
Par
is
a
good
score
here.
Hole
Number
17
is
named
Eagle,
however,
at
531
yards
from
the
Blue
tees,
there
can’t
be
many
of
them!
It
sure
is
a
beautiful
hole
and
plays
around
a
lake
that
guards
the
left
side
of
the
entire
hole.
Bunkers
form
the
right
side,
forcing
a
tee
shot
towards
the
water.
On
your
layup,
there’s
plenty
of
room
to
the
right
past
the
last
bunker.
Play
towards
the
green
on
your
second
and
you
may
find
the
large
cross
bunker.
The
green
is
small
and
undulated.
A
more
appropriate
name
–
for
me
at
least
–
would
be
Watery
Grave!
