Golf in Tompkinsville

Tompkinsville is the Monroe County seat near the Tennessee border in south-central Kentucky, a small community in the cedar glade country of the highland rim. Monroe County's position near the Tennessee line gives it cultural ties to the upper Cumberland region, and the community maintains its county seat functions for a sparsely populated agricultural county. The surrounding cedar glades and oak-hickory forests of the highland rim create the landscape that distinguishes this corner of Kentucky from both the Bluegrass to the north and the Appalachians to the east. Golf has served this Kentucky community as a consistent recreational anchor through economic cycles, providing an outdoor activity that connects residents to the natural landscape in every season that weather permits.
