AMM Events’ Golf Tournament at Gainey Ranch

As the former chief architect for Robert Trent Jones, J. Michael Poellot has more than lived up to his reputation in designing each of Gainey Ranch's courses.

With its lush greenery, sparkling waterways and spectacular waterfall at the 9th hole, The Lakes is both a challenge and a delight. Surrounded by the indigenous desert, The Dunes course requires accuracy off the tee and a gentle touch on the greens. And the longest of the three nines, The Arroyo requires both power and placement, ending with its infamous peninsular green on #9.

The Golf Tournament is limited to the first 25 people who register for it, so act today!

$230 per person ~ includes transportation, lunch, non-alcoholic drinks & driving range balls
