Golf in Newbern

Newbern is a small Dyer County city in the flat agricultural terrain of northwestern Tennessee, a community of modest scale in the cotton and soybean country between Dyersburg and the Obion River bottomlands. The surrounding landscape is productive West Tennessee bottomland — level terrain shaped by the drainage patterns of the Obion River system and cultivated in the row crops that define the regional agricultural economy. Newbern's character reflects the agricultural identity that has defined this part of the state for two centuries, where small incorporated places serve as local service centers for a dispersed farming population. Golf here serves a small community in the context of rural northwestern Tennessee.
