Course

Philmont’s North Course is ranked among the great traditional golf courses in the Philadelphia region.  The course was designed in 1924 by noted golf course architect William Flynn, whose portfolio of outstanding Philadelphia area courses includes Huntingdon Valley, Rolling Green, Lancaster Country Club, Philadelphia Country Club and Manufacturers.  Flynn also designed a number of championship courses nationwide, including Cherry Hills in Denver (1960 US Opens, 1993 U.S. Senior Open), The Country Club in Boston (1999 Ryder Cup) and Shinnocock Hills in Southampton, Long Island (1995 and 2004 U.S. Opens).

TOURNAMENT FORMAT, PRIZES AND AWARDS

• The event will be a “modified scramble” (all players drive; foursome selects a drive; players play their own ball from there).
• Individual prizes will be awarded for longest drive, straightest drive, closest-to-the-pin (all par threes), and the traditional “Double-Flag Birdie Challenge” on Whitemarsh’s 9th Hole.
• Team prizes will be awarded for low gross and low net (based on a Callaway Format — some abstruse, cryptic and wholly esoteric algorithm).
• Hole-in-one prizes apply on all par threes (car, travel packages, and/or cash prize).
