2023 Ally Challenge / PGA Tour Champions


Recommended Posts

I'm going to my 1st Senior Tour (Officially "PGA Tour Champions") event next week at Warwick Hills, the Ally Challenge.  I've really not watched much of the Tour Champions and was looking at the web site to see who was going to be there and the field is only showing 12 players as of today.  Is that typical for a Tour Champions event?  Since it is only 1 week away I would suspect they know everyone that will be there but not sure, could there be last minute additions?

It just seem to be a very small field.

It will update at some point. There will be more than 12 players. Don Felder is playing Friday night if you are an Eagles fan.

Well, today did not go as planned. 

I got to the course @ 10am but should have checked before I drove 50 miles.  Heavy overnight rain delayed the gates opening from 10am to 1pm and pushed tee times back to 3pm.

I figured, hey, I’m here do make the best of it.  Finally they opened gates at 12:40 and we got to our hospitality suite @ 1 and had lunch.  They moved the  opening concert act up from 6pm to 1:30 so we had some entertainment.

@ 2:45 we headed to the 10th green to start watching some golf.  But by the time we got to the green they announced all golf was cancelled for the day.  Headed back to the suite for a drink, snack and more of the concert.

They moved Don Felder to 5pm but by then my group was tired and decided to just head home.

it was not a total bust but not what we were hoping for.

I'm so sorry your experience wasn't what you expected.  Heavy rains last night.  We had over 2" last night and within the last 3 days about 4.5".   There were 6 confirmed tornadoes last night within the state.  I'm not surprised they closed the course.  All local courses were closed today.

I clearly understand the call.  We got the same storms at my house and I had to drain water out of the pool this morning, simply too full.

They were still pumping water out of bunkers at 1pm.  The greens & Fairways we saw looked great but I am sure if I walked in them they would have been water logged.  They said a couple holes were simply not playable.

Still, I did enjoy the day and spent time with a few clients which is a plus.

    • Here is one of my swings where I made what felt like good contact. This isn’t a full speed swing but maybe it should be because a big fault of mine is over swinging. So what im working on is, from A4 my first move has been hands going out toward the ball. This seems to have caused tons of inconsistencies for years. I’ve just made it work with decent hand eye coordination, I guess. Like I said previously, the swing thought/feel is from A4, the lead arm/hands drop down and back to start. Then I feel like my hands get as close to my quads as possible. I’ve never come close to this because my brain never believed contact could be made from there.   Also, this all began when I decided to get the early extension and flipping out. Overall goal is a consistent swing and ball flight and get into some tournament play and get competitive in my club championship.  Hope I get this right, I haven’t done it in a while.        Disregard the pants…I got hot in the garage..😀 I also thought I clicked the audio off on the video but obviously did not.
