Paul C. Gomez, City, AR (October 29, 2011) The inaugural visit of the GC AM Tour of Arkansas to the Glenwood Country Club proves a challenge for all flights!
Flight Winners:
 |
| Brian Smith |
Palmer Flight (4.0-7.9) – Al Smith of Cabot, AR was the only Champ player and played with the Palmers shooting a 76. Eighty-Three (83) was the winning Palmer score by one by Brian Smith of Rogers, AR over Chuck Rummel of Hatfield, AR. Smith's final hole bogey was enough to win him a one stroke victory after being down one going into #18. Roy Blancaflor played as a guest local member of Glenwood Country Club.

| John Hamilton |
Hogan Flight (8.0-11.9) – Big numbers found their way across all Hogan scorecards and the contest proved to be one of endurance. In the end, John Hamilton of Hot Springs Village, AR held on to win his first event with an 82. After 15 holes, 3 of the four Hogans were one stroke apart, but #16 gave everyone trouble! A par-bogey finish gave Hamilton a win over Robert Tillman, of Bentonville, AR, Richard Ainsworth of Maumelle, AR and Robert Taylor of Cabot, AR. Keith Greenfield, local Glenwood member, played as a guest and would have won the Hogan flight shooting an 84.

| Craig Merrill |
Sarazen Flight (12.0-15.9) – A tight race among the Sarazens came down to who could avoid the "others." Craig Merrill of Roland, AR held on to a back nine charge from Joshua Hinojosa of Rogers, AR to win with an 89. Hinojosa couldn't overcome the rough start to the back nine. Mike Lewis of Mena, AR was in the mix, but needed a birdie or two to catch up. Local member Dale Adams played as a guest and shot what would have been a winning 85.
 |
| Danny Miller |
Jones/Snead Flight (16.0-19.9) – Danny Miller of Mena, AR put on an impressive run of pars and posted only two double-bogeys to claim his first victory on the AM Tour after six starts. Good shooting Danny. Miller defeated Charles Moore of Cabot, AR who finished with a good back nine.
