I wanted to get into long drive this season but the only tourney I can find is a qualifier in TN. It seems all the qualifiers in KY got cancelled this year. Anyone know of anything going on in KY?

where do you live in KY? I have a local In Chesapeake, OH on May 28th and July 2nd about 5 mins from Ashland, KY. About 1 hr 45mins from Lexington, KY. Its a Super Q where you can qualify in Regions 2 and 4. Will also have several Demos to try out.

I'd say with those distances you would do pretty good in about any local you went too. It's a down hill grid and not a lot of big time long drivers in this area. It's Chesapeake Driving Range. It's right on the river and it's in Ohio where WV, KY, and OH come together.

Burnboy, There's one this Saturday about a half hour north of Cincinnati just a couple minutes off I -71 from Kings Island between Mason & Lebanon, Ohio on Rt. 42 at The Southwest Golf Ranch. Also a Super Qualifier just outside of Columbus, Ohio this Saturday. Log onto longdrivers.com and click on Remax World Long Drive Championships, and there is a listing of all qualifiers in every region, and contact information. Good luck!!

The Falls City event in NE, Shanks Shoot out in SC and you have the tennessee shootout in june that are both great events. The Falls City is a good 10 hour drive but def worth the trip. And Shanks is always fun. Good ones to look into.
