Ray Smith started the Hawks Nest on Lobdell and Goodwood. Same strip center that DR. Billy Canon had his practice. Then he moved it off Sherwood mid 80's or so.

I think Hawk's Nest was off of Sherwood back by where Mangos is now unless I'm confusing it with another place. I've been there many times.
The bar at Fairway View was the Fairway View Club.
Fallguy, you and Lago Gato are both correct about the Hawks Nest, though.
The original Hawks Nest was by Independence Park, right next to Billy Cannon's dental office. Ray Smith (the owner) used to talk about rumors of Billy burying some of his counterfeit money in the field next to the place.
In the 1980"s, Ray moved the Hawks Nest over to Westfork Avenue, which was by Sherwood Forest Boulevard, where it remained in business until after his death a couple of years ago.

You're not confused and I'm pretty sure it is still there. Or not
