Golf in Hickory Valley

Hickory Valley is a small community in Hardeman County in rural West Tennessee, set in the loess hill country between Bolivar and the Fayette County border. Hardeman County's terrain is more varied than the flat bottomlands of the Mississippi Delta to the west, with loess hills providing gentle relief across a landscape that is otherwise defined by production agriculture. Small communities like Hickory Valley serve highly localized functions in the county's dispersed settlement pattern, and golf here operates at the small-town scale characteristic of rural West Tennessee, where courses anchor communities separated by miles of farmland and hardwood timber tracts.
