Independence Day Skins Game at We-Ko-Pa! Big money on the line—win a hole outright, win the cash! One day. One shot. All heart.
To be added to the tournament field, please text your GHIN number or your first and last name to 773-419-8840. We’ll use that information to verify your handicap and place you in the appropriate flight.
Players will be grouped into four competitive flights based on their handicap index.
A Flight will include golfers with a 4 handicap or lower (Tips - Cholla Tees)
B Flight ranges from 5 to 10 (Purple Tees)
C Flight from 11 to 15 (Composite Tees)
D Flight will be 16 and above. (White Tees)
Final flight assignments may be adjusted based on total registrations to ensure fair and balanced competition.
All players must have a veritable USGA handicap. NO EXCEPTIONS!! Handicaps are only used for registration and flight purposes only. Once you are placed in a flight the handicaps are thrown out. You will compete to win the tournament with the best score winning each flight.
The Final Flight information will be updated and determined on June 20th. At that time we will release pairings.
The entry fee is $130. It covers your green fee, cart, range balls, entry into the Divisional Skins competition, entry into the CTP contest. If you'd like to get into the OVERALL SKINS (See below for description), it will be $10 more.
We’ll be running a Divisional Skins Game within each flight, so you’re only competing for skins against players with similar skill levels. Entry is $20, and all skins are paid out within your flight — A, B, C, or D — making it a fair and exciting way to win some cash!
We’re running a Closest to the Pin Contest on all four Par 3s, split into two divisions:
Entry is just $10 and totally optional. Winners from each division will be determined on each Par 3. More chances to win, more fun on the course!
We’re also offering an Overall Skins Game open to all 128 golfers — no flights, just one big pool. If you win a hole outright, you win your share of the jackpot.
If no skins are won, the pot will be added to the Tournament prize pool, and we’ll increase the payouts in each flight by paying out the Top 6 places instead of the Top 4.
Once you’ve sent us your handicap info and it’s been verified, you’ll be confirmed in the field and ready to go!
Next Step: Pay Your Entry Fee ($130, or $140 if entering Overall Skins)
The full entry fee is fully refundable up to 14 days before the event (June 20, 2025).
We’re looking forward to a great day of competition at one of Arizona’s top courses!
There are two ways to pay:
1. Eventbrite (Recommended & Easiest)
2. Zelle
During the Independence Day Challenge, each foursome will be professionally filmed on one of their first three holes — just like the pros on TV. Footage will be shared at gamenightaz.com for everyone to relive the moment. Want your personal highlight reel? Make a small donation and we’ll send you your own customized video clip, ready to share or save.
The tournament will be played under USGA rules. Each player is accountable by their foursome. However, if there's rules dispute, the disputing player must play two balls for the disputed hole. One ball played based upon the foursome's understanding of the rule with a second ball played based upon the disputed players interpretation. We'll review and resolve any disputes once the group is back inside the clubhouse.
The Independence Day Challenge is approaching fast and we’re making preparations. Don’t miss out!
