The most enjoyable Pro Am I have been in. Great fun had by all and the interaction with the Pro’s was the icing on the cake.
I would like to invite you and your friends to join me and my fellow LET Professionals at the “Golf 4 All” Pro-Am 2015. It really is a super Pro Am played on the wonderful Indiana Course at Desert Springs. With a terrific social atmosphere and fantastic weather, it all adds up to a really enjoyable Event. Look forward to seeing there.

Reception at the Cave Bar
Competitions
Speed Golf
The opening Event of the Pro Am. Meet your fellow Competitors’ and interact with the LET Pro’s whilst enjoying good food and drink in the unique environment of the Cave Bar. The team draw will take place and there will be a surprise or two to make sure the Event is off to a great start.
Your team will be led by a different LET pro on each day of golf. Day 1 is a team stableford Competition, and Day 2 is a Better Ball stableford format. Your two team stableford scores over the two days are then added together to give your team total. Delight in watching your LET pros play the Indiana course in a manner rarely seen at Desert Springs, knowing that how you play will make the difference in the final competition results.
The LET pros team up to provide a continuous flow of shots around the Indiana Course, to complete a round in the shortest possible time with the lowest possible score. Assisted by the amateurs to ensure the pros are in the right place at the right time (and putt out when necessary) the Speed Golf provides a spectacular fast moving round of golf. The record to beat in 2015 is 28 minutes.
Golf Clinics
Interaction with the Pro’s
Prize Dinner at El Torrente
A low ration of amateurs to LET professionals in each clinic ensures that each amateur golfer can expect to pick up a range of playing tips and techniques to suit their own game that can be used immediately out on the course. Discuss with your pros over breakfast what you would like to cover and they will tailor the clinic to suit.
The event is set up in way that ensures that all the LET pros spend their time with the amateur golfers in a social environment as well as on the golf course, providing an ambience which is rarely found in ProAm events elsewhere.
The traditional closing Event of the Pro Am taking place in the award winning El Torrente Restaurant. A great evening is promised with the fabulous range of prizes presented culminating in the announcement of the 2015 “Golf 4 All” Pro Am Tournament winners.
