Jimmie Austin Headlines 2011 Schedule on the Oklahoma Tour

Jimmie Austin Headlines 2011 Schedule on the Oklahoma Tour


Scott R Chilcutt, Edmond, OK (January 3, 2011) Prices, Venues, Saturday vs. Sunday, Major Events and the National Championship all come in to play when we set out to put together a local tour schedule.

Some of the highlights:

National Championship – Major Events:

This year, like 2010 we have to have our point’s championships awarded by August 31st for National Championship qualification. PGA West, will once again host the National’s, September 18th – 21st the seniors will compete and the mid-ams’ will take the stage from September 24th – 27th.

Major events in the South Central Region, include: The Texas Open @ Horseshoe Bay on March 5th and 6th. May 21st and 22nd we have an event at a venue yet to be announced then on to Texas Masters @ TPC San Antonio on June 4th and 5th with the Texas Shootout @ Redstone Golf Club on August 6th and 7th.

Venues:

While the path of least resistance would be to simply call clubs we played in 2010 and rebook a similar schedule, we’ve never been accused of taking the easy way out. With the wealth of available golf courses in the Oklahoma it’s important that we return to the best venues, add in some selected courses and just stay away from others. Sometimes scheduling gets in the way, just the other day I was set to book a golf course for a date, but with further investigation found they were punching the greens just 5 days before, needless to say that course wasn’t booked this year.

We return to old faithful locations like, Kicking Bird, Patricia Island and Forest Ridge, we’ve added Jimmie Austin, Battle Creek, Clary Fields and going to visit our gang in Talhequah at Cherry Springs. River Oaks and Shawnee Country Club come back into play and we’ve added past year venues like, Emerald Falls and Rose Creek.

We hope everyone had a great last few holiday weeks, look for our Tournament Operations and Membership installments in the coming days and if I can do anything for YOU, please let me know.
