Lookout is a scruffy mountainside Raynor that with a little more time post their renovation by Kyle Franz and Tyler Rae, is going to be on everyone’s bucket list that doesn’t already have it. You get massive green complexes and the ability to feed balls into pins off huge slopes.

Old style parkland right on the Tennessee River. Bermuda greens are usually speedy and course is a good test for being around 6,600 yards and a Par 71

How we rank
This ranking uses published scorecard data from each course’s longest men’s tees, the same tee set for every course. Only 18-hole courses with a yardage for every hole, a total that matches the hole-by-hole sum, and a par between 54 and 80 are included, and the tees must carry a single slope rating (55–155) and course rating. Courses whose scorecard duplicates another course’s are left out until the data is fixed. Courses are ordered by slope rating, then course rating, then Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of Rising Fawn, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
