Golf Town National Amateur Series Time to Show Up Saskatchewan
The Golf Town National Amateur Series is this incredible Golf Tour across Canada, that plays at some of most prestigious golf courses, that Canada has to offer.
The problem is that for some reason Saskatchewan’s aren’t showing up, the only province that is on the tour, that doesn’t have anywhere close to the participation, and I have some reasons why?
You all might not know about it
Lack of Money
Don’t Want to get your Ass handed to you because your a casual golfer
Guess what everyone is missing out, on what could be one of the greatest tours in Canadian Golf.
What is the Golf Town National Amateur Series
It’s a series of tournaments, where everyone is flighted by their handicap and anyone can play and everyone should play.
Think about it if your at Kelvington Golf Course and you shoot 42 for 9 holes 87 for 18 holes, you could be the best in your flight the way they have it set up, so you can win the tournament playing your game without all those pro scratch golfers to deal with.
What do you win? Awards, Golf Town Gift Cards Can be Big Money, Points towards the Order of Merit, Opportunity to play in the National Championship, last year was at Doral in Florida the National Championship, ya the PGA Tour known as the Blue Monster!
This year the National Championship is staying in Canada at Bear Mountain Golf Club in Victoria, BC could be the most fun you have all summer, and a little vacation.
You can check out their website to see the beautiful course you could be playing for National Champion in your own Flight. http://bearmountain.ca

How much to be join the Golf Town National Amateur Series?
It’s Free

$140 to $160
What do you get for $140 to $160?

The More People the Bigger your prize so if the field is full could be playing for $500 Gift Cards in your flight.
Awards
Scoring
Points towards the Provincial Order of Merit
Exciting Competition against people of similar skill level!
Anyone can win their own flight because it’s set up that 15 handicaps don’t have to play against Scratch Golfers and 34 Handicaps can still play and win. Worried about Sandbaggers, if someone does way too well for their skill level they will bump them and put them with the better players, its a great and fair system.
