WELCOME
TO
THE
Florida Golf TOUR
WEB
SITE
The Florida
Golf Tour was started in 1996.
We had
played on many Senior Mini Tours and seen the short comings, heard the
complaints and believed we could offer something that would be agreeable
to most players. So we decided to give it a try. Twelve years later and
we're still here. However, since the change in format of the
Champions Tour, there are far less senior players available.
Many changes have been made since our first event at Sherman Hills G.C.
back in 1996. The most significant of those was made in 2006.
In 2005 we went to a two division format. This was to allow our
higher scoring players to still have a place to play and have a chance
to make a check. In 2006 our sub par players said, "bring on the
kids". It will make the purses and field sizes bigger. So,
we changed our Champions Division to the Open Division, which is now
open to players of all ages. Our Tour Division is strictly for
senior players.
Over
the years many of our players have gone on to play the on the Champions Tour and the
Senior European Tour. Our players include past PGA Tour
players. Players such as Mike Smith, Brad Bryant, Gary Koch, David
Canipe, Fred Gibson, Ken "Hawk" Harrelson, Al Kelley, Doug Johnson,
Kenny Knox, Bob Lendzion, Bill Longmuir, Dwight Nevil, David and Pete
Oakley, John Ross, David Spittle, Delroy Cambridge, Jay Dolan, Nick Job,
our all time money leader Jim Chancey, Mitch Adcock, Mike Sullivan, Dave
Rummells, Evan "Big Cat" Williams, Steve Thomas, Beau Baugh, Rex
Caldwell, James Mason and the player our Tour Championship is named
after, J.C. Goosie have graced our fields. As you can see our
players come from all over the world.
Our fields may not be large, but our players have a great time and enjoy
the camaraderie of their fellow competitors.
So,
check out our web site, and if you still have any questions, E-mail us
or give us a phone call. Come
on out and join the fun. Ladies you are welcome too!
