Welcome To The Tampa Tour

The Tampa Tour is an amateur golf league based in the Tampa Bay Area. Founded by four friends in 2006 on the premise that nothing like it existed, The Tour caters to younger professionals looking for a group of like-minded guys who want an outlet for friendly competition. Friendships naturally develop along the way, as the group focuses equally on camaraderie and competition. The Tour is not affiliated with any particular course, rather choosing to play different courses throughout central Florida, primarily in the Tampa Bay Area, at affordable prices.

The Tampa Tour is run by a small volunteer Executive Committee, who organizes and manages each event, as well as participates and competes. USGA handicapping makes every event competitive for all who play, and prizes reward those who win weekly events as well as those who maintain a level of success over the course of a season through a points based system. The season starts in late winter and runs through the spring and summer, typically wrapping up at the end of summer or early fall. Register with the Tour, and have a look at the Calendar of Events. We look forward to seeing you.

Collins' Fools and Tools - IMAGES INCLUDED

Submitted by Scott A Stanton on Thu, 08/12/2010 - 22:40

Well, with the help of my partner-in-crime, the attitude behind Stanton's Studs, Mr. Troy Smith, we have decided to provide the "pictures" that you clowns were asking for to help you all understand.  We figured, we would start by providing pictures of the enemy so everyone can laugh at them when we bury them before ever hitting Copperhead.  Please though, if you have a sensitive stomach, or a heart disease, DO NOT LOOK BELOW.  They are very ugly people, and even now I'm having to choke back bile.

Let the smack talking begin! (continue?) HIGHLIGHT: Naly's awful swing

Submitted by Scott A Stanton on Mon, 08/09/2010 - 23:50

Well, after an email has been trying to get circulated, Troy, Manny and I thought it would be a good idea to get a jump on the ever-talking awful-golfing Mark Naly.  If any of you have not played with Naly, please see this example of his AWFUL golf swing.  Sanz, Collins, really?  THIS is your captains pick?  I could have picked up a bum off the street that has more class and a better swing, and coming from me that is ROUGH.

Legacy Highlights, Riverstrand information - and the ultimate smack talking event

Submitted by The Tampa Tour EC on Tue, 07/27/2010 - 09:22

Legacy Golf Club hosted The Tampa Tour for a second time in the 5th season on Saturday, July 24th. Twenty members teed them up on a windy day in Bradenton, FL. The greens were a bit bumpy, as Legacy had punched their greens just 2 weeks prior, but the rest of the course was in great shape as always. It seemed as if players were hitting into the wind just about all day, which created 200 yard par 3s instead of the 160 listed on the scorecard.  Even with that said, there were still some good scores posted.

Waterlefe Results (weeks late!)

Submitted by The Tampa Tour EC on Sun, 07/25/2010 - 23:32

We had some very dissapointing, low numbers of attendance (and scores!) at the Waterlefe event a week back.  The club was more than understanding, and we hope next year to come back with some stronger numbers as a large amount of members on tour did enjoy the venue. 

RSVP for Riverstrand is OPEN! 8-7 last regular season event!

Submitted by The Tampa Tour EC on Fri, 07/16/2010 - 12:08

That time of the year is upon us as we're just about to have our three big awards for the season!  Riverstrand will mark the last regular event of the year, meaning it's time to award our league champion as well as have our end of year BBQ!  Remember, the League Champion awared is different than our T.I.T. major champion.  As an added bonus we are awarding all $10 league fees to the winner of this event (instead of our standard $5) essentially making this event play as a major.

Another trip to Legacy - RSVP Open for 7-24 event - CASH ONLY EVENT

Submitted by The Tampa Tour EC on Sun, 07/11/2010 - 23:02

It's time to get heading down to the beautiful Legacy golf course again, at a great rate for a great time!  Only Riverstrand will remain after our Legacy event.  To qualify for our Ryder Cup event in mid-August we will only count the points up until this event, so make sure you guys get out to play to try and burst into the standings and join us at Innisbrook for a great match-play event.

Remember, this is a CASH ONLY EVENT.  So bring those benji's!  There will be a get together for the selection process for the Ryder-Cup event after Legacy at Troy Smith's house, anyone that wants to come is welcome.

Bardmoor event a success, Kuhn back from his late night walks

Submitted by The Tampa Tour EC on Sun, 07/11/2010 - 22:44

The tour ventured down to Largo, FL to play Bardmoor this past Saturday, and it was definately an interesting one.  We'd like to congratulate Terry Kuhn for a few things; winning the B flight, tieing for first place in the event, and more importantly, finding his way back from Panther Lake's 18th green in one piece!  We'd also like to congratulate Scott Sterling for winning the A flight after the first hole in a playoff against Manny "O" and enduring his playing partners Zappelli and Stanton.
