I don't think the clubs are a good place to meet quality men. I met my SO online (OkCupid). Young black professional events are a good place to meet single men.

I was never a club goer, but before I got married, I belonged to a athletic club (gym) in the downtown area where a lot of single professional guys would come a work out. It was a big social scene and I was able to meet some decent men there.
Also, we had a large walking park in my town and it was a great place to meet guys and people in general; this park is known for it's lawyers, doctors, politicians, etc. going there to run/walk. When I go visit now, I still get a guy to come up to me if I'm walking an ask about my situation, or give me a card.
Just a few options. Oh and I agree with having trusted friends or family members introducing you to someone. That's how I met DH, his brother introduced us.

Parks with running/walking/bike trails
Through friends
NPHC events (i.e. golf outtings, boat rides, fundraisers, galas, etc.)
Library
Whole Foods/Trader Joes

You meet a good man anywhere you are ready to.
basically, go enjoy your own interests and hobbies and have fun.

ITA...As long as you actually leave the house, you will meet men. There is no set place or gathering that will guarantee a GOOD man, you will have to do the weeding out process yourself.
