Golf in Fowlkes

Fowlkes is a small community in Dyer County in northwestern Tennessee, set in the flat agricultural terrain between Dyersburg and the Tennessee River. The community sits in the heart of West Tennessee's cotton and soybean country, where the landscape is defined by production agriculture and the drainage infrastructure that manages the flat alluvial terrain. Dyer County's rural character outside of Dyersburg is pronounced, and communities like Fowlkes reflect the dispersed settlement pattern of a farming region where town centers are spaced widely across the flat landscape. Golf here serves a small local community in the straightforward context of rural West Tennessee.
