About Us

Providing FUN and COMPETITIVE Junior Golf Tournaments with Integrity, Quality, and UNIQUE VALUE.

Bryan was born in northern Ohio, lived in suburb of Detroit, MI and moved with his family to Florida in 1985.  At the age of 8, Bryan's dad bought him his first set of golf clubs.  Bryan was so excited to learn the game and with the help of his grandfather, his instruction through his mid teenage years was by Herman Lang, PGA and Head Professional at prestigious Inverness Country Club in Toledo, Ohio (Herman Lang previously served as assistant golf pro under the great BYRON NELSON).  

Bryan was a 3-sport athlete in high-school in Michigan but upon moving to Florida he realized that his passion was playing and competing in junior and high school golf events.  Additionally, his early goals in life were to compete/win a state golf championship, live on golf course, own a golf course, and design a golf course.  Bryan's transitioned to a new PGA golf instructor, Will Frantz, PGA, upon moving to Florida.  Will played in PGA Championships and Senior PGA championships.  Will was not only a great instructor, but a great human being and an awesome player.  Summary of Bryan's Junior Golf Highlights:

• As 3-year starter on the Sarasota Riverview High School Boys Golf Team, Bryan helped his team become the State of Florida High School Boys Golf Champions in 1986, runner-up in 1987, and State Champions again in 1988.
• In his senior year, he finished in Top 5 individually in Regionals (back then it was called districts, and sub-districts)
• Bryan was selected in his HS junior and senior years to the Suncoast Area Boys HS Golf First-Team.
• As a junior golfer, Bryan competed on the AJGA tour with the likes of Phil Mickleson, Jim Furyk, David Duval, and other current and former PGA and Champions Tour professional golfers.

• Bryan's lowest competitive 18-hole junior golf tournament round was 69 (-3) and two-day junior golf tournament score of EVEN Par (144).
• In 1987, Bryan made a hole-in-one in a Pro-Am Charity event on Longboat Key Harbourside that qualified him to win a brand new Cadillac.  Bryan turned down the $25,000 Cadillac as he decided that competing for a state HS golf championship with his team and continuing to play competitively in junior golf tournaments his senior year was most important.
• Bryan had college golf scholarship offers but decided to focus on his engineering and business degrees at the prestigious University of Florida while still playing competitive amateur golf in tournaments and intramurally.
