It’s official! I had so much fun playing in the last two Mesquite Amateur tournaments, I decided to join forces with the Mesquite Am and The Golf Chick is now one of this fabulous event’s sponsors. And the best news is what’s in it for YOU.
Fun & Games & Prizes
There will be a “tournament within the tournament” for all Mesquite Am participants who sign up as part of The Golf Chick group. You still get paired up and play on the appropriate course according to your gender and handicap, but your scores will also be counted in a separate contest which will provide special prizes for individual women, men and couples winners. Look out for some fun, bonus side games as well – you may be awarded for unusual accomplishments for your play (or style) throughout the event!
Plus – everyone who signs up as a Golf Chick participant by March 31st will be entered into a drawing – one lucky winner will have their entire hotel stay comped for the event!
And – everyone who signs up as a Golf Chick participant will receive a special bonus swag package – in addition to your usual Mesquite Am swag!
But there’s still more – Meet the rest of the Golf Chick participants at the dinner event the first night with our premium reserved seating for our group! We’ll also have a drawing for all Golf Chick participants right then and there – the winner will receive a special golf gift that just might come in handy for the tournament! We know you’ll be making new friends and maybe reconnecting with others so after the first night, we won’t bother to reserve seats for the group but we can sit together wherever we want.
What’s the catch? – THERE ISN’T ONE! None of this costs a penny more than if you signed up without all these bonuses. And take it from someone who has finished this event in dead freaking last – you can’t lose! Even if you lose – you’ll go home happy with a bunch of great memories, gifts and new friends.
CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP, AND SIMPLY WRITE “GOLF CHICK” in the “how did you hear of the event” or the “promo code” box of the registration form to get in on all the specials.
Can’t wait to see you there! Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions, comments or just want to let me know I’ll be seeing you there! You can get me on twitter @TheGolfChick or e-mail me at Kristen (at) TheGolfChick (dot) com.
FYI: Â If you already registered and didn’t write “Golf Chick” in the comments, you can still get in on this if you let us know you you forgot, the box wasn’t available, or you otherwise heard about the tournament from The GolfChick (website, flyer, ad, etc.) but didn’t know about the code.

Blog posts from 2009 & 2010 Mesquite Am events
Entering its 9th year of competition, the Mesquite Amateur is one of the largest handicapped amateur tournaments in the nation. Located in Mesquite, NV (about an hour from Las Vegas), The Mesquite Amateur consists of a five-day 54-hole, net, stroke play tournament. Participants compete against a field of players with a similar handicap, and play is governed by USGA rules. Finalist rankings will be determined by comparing the three-day cumulative score. The top four participants from each flight will complete in the 18-hole championship round.

Kristen,
Did not see anywhere to put Promo Code: Golf Chick on registration form. If I was supposed to put it in comments, oh well.
I guess I miss out on goodies.
December 30, 2010 at 3:52 am
Kerry,
Thanks for the heads up. I will email them to fix that snag right away. Please let me know your full name and I will make sure you are included! Look forward to seeing you there!

Just updated the text to indicate that all it requires is writing something about the golf chick in the comment section. They didn’t add a promo code field and putting it in the comments means it’s not spelling or case sensitive, just get it in there somewhere and you’ll be in!
Thanks again, Kerry. You have been added to the list. See you there!
January 7, 2011 at 3:32 am
So how many on the list so far?
January 7, 2011 at 7:11 am
I don’t know, Kerry (golfoddball). The Mesquite Am takes all the registrations and keeps the list.
January 11, 2011 at 7:46 pm
They added the promo code box to the registration form, so you can either write “golf chick” there or in the “how did you hear of the event,” which used to be the comment section. Either way will count you in!
January 17, 2011 at 3:50 pm
You rock Kristen! It was such a pleasure meeting and golfing with you two years ago and so great to see you last year. You were never in last….always at the top of my list! Great article! See you in May!
January 17, 2011 at 11:29 pm
So sweet, Patti! I look forward to seeing you again!
January 21, 2011 at 12:15 am
Golfing in Mesquite this weekend. I need the practice
January 21, 2011 at 2:15 am
Put wrong comments/promo code in my registration. Is it possible to still sign up with you/your group? Full name is Robert D’Attilo. This will be my first year in the tournament.
January 21, 2011 at 2:18 am
Kerry – I SUPPOSE that’s not cheating. j/k have fun! which courses are you playing?
Robert – consider yourself in. I’ll let them know. I look forward to meeting you there! Where are you from?

Saturday Playing Oasis Palmer, Sunday Playing Oasis Canyons. Since I live just North, I consider Mesquite My Home Winter courses. Other wise I would not be playing for about 3 Months.
February 14, 2011 at 2:07 am
Kristen, can you add JR and I to your list? We signed up the end of December and we did not know about this or see a promo code area. I am glad to hear it has been corrected. We were checking out the website today to see how many of our great friends had signed up for the tournament. Now that we know about this, we will be sure to tell anyone who has not yet signed up to use “Golf Chick”!
February 14, 2011 at 5:11 am
Dana & JR – You are in! Awesome, thanks! Can’t wait to see you all there!
February 22, 2011 at 11:26 pm
Boy I missed this till after I signed up. Can I still get in?
February 23, 2011 at 3:35 am
I don’t do Facebook or Twitter. So I will get all my updates from here or if you e-mail me.
February 24, 2011 at 2:35 am
Missed the opportunity to sign up when I registered. Can a super senior Canadian have any fun with your group?
Regards
Jim
February 24, 2011 at 3:09 am
Jim – I don’t see why not. I’ll be meeting most of the people for the first time myself. If you can have fun with people who like to play golf, maybe gamble, maybe imbibe… then you’ll probably fit in just fine. (c:

My wife and me are both playing in the tournament this year. This will be my third time and the first time for my wife.When I filled out the form I didn’t see your promo. I hope you can include us. My name is William Paul and my wife is Wendy Paul. I believe we are friends on Facebook. Thanks for your time, DP

First time entrant…long time player (can’t wait). Patti Kelly turned me on to this.
Did not get this until today, already signed up (rats!). My friend won a prize today through “Golf Chick”…AWESOME! She was pretty thrilled to say the least.
March 4, 2011 at 1:35 am
Gigi, we’ll get you in. (c:
You’re gonna love the Am. I look forward to meeting you!
March 4, 2011 at 1:39 am
Oh, and Patti – you ROCK!
March 7, 2011 at 4:56 am
I had already signed up the first day it was opened and then later they added your logo. Count me in. Are going to make it to the 3rd Annual Cigars Under the Stars??? I’ll bring you champagne and strawberries on Tues if you do!!! -lol- It will be good to see you again (-;
March 8, 2011 at 2:53 am
Update: everyone who asked to be included after missing it on their entry form IS OFFICIALLY included. Now don’t let it happen again. (c:
Rich – this includes you, and I fully expect the champagne & strawberry treatment! Wouldn’t miss cigars under the stars. See you in Mesquite!
March 8, 2011 at 2:41 pm
It will be good to see your smiling face again. Make sure you go to the Mesquite Am bolg page and make a comment about attending on the Cigars Under the Stars thread. See you soon Golf Chick. Since I do the Cigars Under the Stars, I guess that makes me the Golf Stick?
March 12, 2011 at 6:07 pm
Shoot! Just signed up and then came to the golf chick sight. . . can I still get into the Golf Chick package if I promise to do it right next year?
March 12, 2011 at 6:10 pm
Sure, Kathy. I think I can make that happen. Look forward to meeting you in Mesquite!
March 19, 2011 at 12:16 am
Already signed up for the tournament but
didn’t hear anything about the GOLF CHICK
until today. Already 3 friends couples have
sign up and I need to also so where and what do I do to accomplish this feat. 2 couples from BC, 1 from Calif and us from TN and this is where we have been meeting since the first Mesquite AM
Thanks Steve
March 28, 2011 at 6:17 pm
I have registered but was not aware or did not see the “golf chick” code so will you add me to your list of entrants.
Thanks

I was just looking at the Names for the Skins Game, at Falcon Ridge on May 30, and I did not notice yours. Are you playing, or are you not permitted since you are sponsoring this year. I hope to see you out there. And remember David said he is buying the first round at the CasaBlanca Bar, Sunday May 29, at 6:00pm. This is for Skins Participants I believe.
On a side note, Golfing the Palms this Sat & Sun.
April 4, 2011 at 10:37 pm

Jim Cox, Michael Davis, Diane McGaha – I had you added to our roster but see you’re no longer on it. Did you cancel your trip or do I need to check back in with the organizer to get this fixed?
Shannan, I have submitted your names. Should not be a problem. Thanks and I look forward to meeting you all!
Ginny, Registration closed on the 20th. Did you get signed up through the Mesquite Am? If so, it shouldn’t be a problem adding you to our group. Let me know!
May 22, 2011 at 6:34 pm
Yes, I did sign up through the Mesquite Am. Thanks for adding me.
Ginny
May 23, 2011 at 12:27 am

May 23, 2011 at 9:10 pm
Hi Golf Chick! Looking forward to the tournament. I’m just checking to make sure my husband (Robert Smith) and I are signed up with you. We didn’t put it on the form, but called right away when we signed up. Just checking to make sure we’re in! Can’t wait.
May 23, 2011 at 9:19 pm
Hi Kathy – yes, you’re both in! I look forward to meeting you next week. And call me Kristen! (c:

Thanks Kristen! Your idea really sounds fun. Looks like we won’t be in the same flight. Almost! I need to get better! See you soon.
June 1, 2011 at 5:26 am
Hey Kristen,
It was great seeing you again today!!! Happy to hear you’re not DFL this year. I think it’s awesome you remember everyone’s names. You are awesome and I’m happy I know you. Hopefully, we’ll get to play together again.
Good luck tomorrow!!!
