Dream Celebrity Golf Trip - Pro Legends Golf

What if you could spend a long weekend in one of the top vacation spots in the world, playing golf alongside professional sports legends? It is what dreams are made of. Thats what Tom Lutes thought when he started Pro Legends Golf in 2009. Turns out, he was right. Pro Legends Golf promotes and manages celebrity golf tournaments in conjunction with it's charitable partner Operation Homefront, as well as the alumni of the National Football League, Major League Baseball, National Hockey League, and National Basketball Association. After achieving tremendous success hosting tournaments in its home state of Colorado, Pro Legends Golf is excited to take the show on the road. The first stop will be Las Vegas, where Pro Legends Golf will team up with the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino for a series of golf events that are sure to be a hit. These events will feature former stars from all four major sports, and a tournament featuring celebrities from outside the world of sport is also in the works.

The first such event will be the Football Legends $1,000,000 Shootout. It will be held at the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino May 12-16 with golf days on the 13th and 14th. Participants will enjoy two rounds of play at a pair of the finest courses Las Vegas has to offer, Desert Pines Golf Club and Royal Links Golf Cub. Pro Legends Golf has put together an impressive list of sixty of the best football players to ever put on the pads. Luckily for everyone involved, golf will be the name of the game at this event, so there will be no unnecessary roughness taking place; however, that does not mean there will be a lack of fun.

In true Las Vegas style, there will be ample opportunity to win money. Event participants will be given the opportunity to join a private poker tournament with a potential purse of $24,000. Although impressive, that amount of money will seem like mere pocket change to whoever sinks the 150 yard shot to win a hefty $1,000,000. Each participant will also enjoy a cocktail reception and an awards banquet where they can mingle with the legends, as well as fellow participants. A silent auction featuring memorabilia signed by the legends will take place throughout the four day event, and will conclude the night of the awards banquet.

Behind all the fun and excitement surrounding these epic events is a cause that Pro Legends Golf is proud to represent. Operation Homefront is a charitable organization that provides emergency financial and other assistance to the families of our country's wounded soldiers. Pro Legends Golf's passion for philanthropy is evident in their generosity. Operation Homefront will not only receive valuable exposure and advertisement time on the national telecast of the event, but they will also receive the proceeds from the auction, and they will be given $500,000 if someone makes the $1,000,000 shot from 150 yards.

The events and festivities that Pro Legends Golf has planned over the next year are without a doubt one of the best kept secrets in the world of golf today, but do not count on this secrecy to remain for long. Spots are quickly filling up for the Football legends $1,000,000 Shootout in May as well as the Baseball Legends $1,000,000 Shootout in June.
