2025 KYNG Memorial Golf Scramble

Registration for players and sponsors is now open for the 12th Annual Kentucky National Guard Memorial Golf Scramble. This will be an MORNING only flight. Registration begins at 7:30 a.m. and will tee off at 8:30 a.m.

A catered lunch will provided by Mission BBQ following the tournament from 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm.  

Players are encouraged to register before August 18th to take advantage of the Early Bird registration fees ($85 per person, $340 per foursome). After August 18th, registration will be $100 per player, $400 per foursome.

Due to popular demand, we will be holding our $5,000 cash prize putting contest again this year. Sponsored by Helibasket, LLC, this putting contest is dedicated to the memory of CW5 (R) Joe N. Wilkins, a former member of our board of directors.  Players compete and the finalist gets one last putt from 50 ft. for a $5,000 cash prize.  If the 50 ft. putt goes in, the winning player receives the cash prize.

In addition, we are bringing back Golf Tournament Solutions and their patented Golf Cannon to our tournament. The GTS Golf Cannon is America’s Number One Cannon for safety, distance, accuracy, value, and pricing.  It is the longest-shooting, safest, and most accurate in the industry… not to mention, a BLAST for all who take part.  Players shoot the cannon under GTS supervision, and they use the cannon shot as their drive using their own golf ball.  If all four players participate, they are guaranteed an EAGLE (2 under par) for the hole.  The shooter landing their golf ball closest to the pin will receive a $100 certificate good for a Spa Day anywhere in the U.S. or a Round of Golf at any course in the U.S.  To learn more about GTS and see the Golf Cannon in action, visit their website at www.golftournamentsolutions.com.

Everyone is welcome to participate in the event.
