Amateur tour next year

[TN94z]

Well, I am going to play on an amateur tour in my area next year. It seems pretty cool. If you finish high enough in the points, you get invited to Hilton Head to play in the national championships. My cousin and I went out last weekend and played one of the courses on the schedule to see where we ranked. This was our first visit to the course. We played it from the tips with no yardage devices like Skycaddies or lasers. We had a little off day and I shot the same score that won the tournament in the Championship flight. So we are very pumped about next year. We are going to work out a practice schedule this fall and winter to really tighten up our 100 yards and in game. I am going to keep going to my teacher as his changes are now starting to add some good distance to my clubs. I was hitting my 9i 145-150 at this course and it is usually my 135 club (amazing what a correct turn can get you). We can play two tournaments as a guest and we are thinking about playing their major which is pretty close to the house on a course that we have played a lot. I will post up results if we decide to do this.

I can't wait!!! I love competing.

Sounds like the eGolf tour. I played in it two years ago, flighted of course, and really enjoyed it. Michigan's chapter has over 200 members but even with that there were openings to go to Hilton Head for the Nationals. Cost is about $75 to $150 per event here. I had a good time but had to withdraw after cutbacks at work.

Consider us in the gallery & we'll be rooting for you!

It is the eGolf tour. Those costs are still about the same. It is the only one around me that I can compete in at the moment. I plan on doing this until I am ready for the next level. Thanks!

Count me into your gallery. I'll be rooting for you guys from afar. Practice, practice, practice and keep us posted.

I checked out the egolf tour near me and it is really dead maybe 10 to 20 turn out. I've played the golf channel tour a couple times but it just wasn't worth the money plus I find enough county, state, and other tournaments to play. Good luck I'm glad to hear this tour is having success in other areas.

There are usually around 60-70 players in the one around here and I think it will grow next year, but we will see
