Hey, guys.  I'm hoping someone can answer my questions seeing as I have zero knowledge about local amatuer tours....

I saw a member on the forum say that he had won a tournament, it looked to be 3 rounds.  The member showed a 14 marker, as FYI.

What are these local amatuer tournaments?  Are they open to the public, there is just a registartion fee and participants are grouped via handicaps?

This looks to be something I'd be interested in doing locally and any information would be great!

Most places have some kind of amateur tours in their area.  You have the Golf Channel tour.  In my area we also have an egolf tour.  You pay a member fee and then pay to play each tournament gaining points.  I know the egolf tour is cool because if you finish high enough, you get to go to Myrtle Beach to play in the national championships or something.  I plan on playing in my local one next year because most of my playing partners have quit.

The egolf tour is now sponsored by Golfweek. I played in the Nashville chapter last season and had a blast! It's a great way to get some competitive play against other players with your skill level. As TN said, the point system is the best thing. The top 10 in each flight are invited to play in the National Championship in Hilton Head.

Driver:  R9 Supertri 10.5* -  909D3 9.5*

2 Hybrid:  2009 TP Rescue 17*

Irons:  R9 TP 3-PW

Wedges:  Vokey 54* & 60*

Putter:  2Ball Vline 34"


I'm still having zero luck w/ this.  I've googled it to death.  I cannot find local amatuer tournaments grouped by handicaps.   The Golf Channel's tour has what I'm looking for, but the "Pittsburgh" chapter plays everywhere but Pittsburgh.

UGH!  This shouldn't be too difficult.

thats the closest golfweek tour I could find to you....I've seen that tour played around my area and its well ran here and seems to be fun for all.



This is the egolf organization I was referring to.  It's very well ran around here too and I have been watching the tournament results the last 2 years and their memberships are obviously growing.

    • Day 1: 2/26/2025: So, I'm starting over on this again.  My son brought home the mother of all flu bugs from school. It raged though our house and knocked me on my butt for about 3 days.  Now, that I think I'm clear of the death plague my son gave me. I was able to rise early this morning and get some nice mirror work in. I felt stiff like a board for the first few swings, but loosened up and was able to get at least 20 minutes of first robotic slow swings and then gradually more fluid swings.  My focus was on the timing and fluidity of my priority pieces. 
    • I use a MagSafe connector on my tripod. Occasionally I use those clips.
    • Working on some swing videos. What are you guys having the best luck with as far as devices used to record the swing?  I have a tripod with a magnet that I stick my phone on but it is somewhat of a pain because I have to remove the cover on my phone and when I pull it off the magnet the tripod head changes and moves position. I was thinking something more like an ipad maybe. On a different style tripod and maybe even set it up to mirror to a tv.
