Amateur Golf Tour

[Motley01]

Back about 10 years ago, when I lived in Atlanta. I was on a Golf Amateur Tour. Playing tournament golf is really challenging, and fun.

I've been itching to play in something like this again, and since I'm back in Colorado, I just found out that Golfweek sponsors an amateur tour here, and lots of other cities.

Does anybody here play these tournaments? If so, do you like it?

For those who don't know, it's flighted based on your USGA handicap. So you only play against others with your skill.

Since I'm a 14, I will be in the Flight C which is 14-19 HC.

TOUR FLIGHTS
The field will be divided into five indexed flights. Flight Index
Championship            0 - 3.9
A Flight                   4.0 - 8.9
B Flight                  9.0 - 13.9
C Flight                14.0 – 18.9
D Flight                    19.0+

They have pretty strict rules for "sandbaggers". So if you shoot under your handicap by 4 or strokes, you are automatically moved up a flight.
