I investigated the Golfweek Am after seeing your post. I am in far NW Arkansas and I see there are several Arkansas events left but my question would be do I have a chance to compete with several tournaments already having been completed. Looks like fun but most of the tourneys are in the Little Rock area(about 3 hours from me) so I would at least like a shot at playing for all the marbles if I joined.

Looks really cool though - certainly consider for next season if I don't play on it this year.

I've thought of joining up a few times. And the regional down in tunica doesn't require you to be a tour member just have a valid index.
I registered for that and if it goes well I'll really consider joining up from the start next season. Playing Links at Cottonwoods and Tunica National could be fun to lol.

Charles, you can still be in contention for the flight championships in the AR tour, I don't think Jerry (tour director for AR tour) has put on but 3 or 4 tourneys, and the majors count as double points. The tourney Steve mentioned in Tunica is a combined regional for Memphis, AR, & the MS tours. I started on the Mississippi tour in 2007 with just less than half the season left, and won my flight. I got to play in two majors and finished 1st and 2nd, that helped alot. Still a lot fun even if you don't think you can get the flight championship. Top ten is qualified to go to Hilton Head, which is a big time event!! Email or call Jerry Homishak and he will fill you in more. Check them out! See ya

I have a friend that plays in South Lousiana and he seems to like playing the events, I would say one every other month. But the drive for him is about an hour to two hours away on nice courses.
