a NEW KIND OF GOLF TOUR
EXPERIENCE NEVER RETIRES.
What’s with the name?
The top question we get asked is: Where did the name the Fat Belly Tour come from?
It started as a joke. I mentioned to my wife that I was tired of competing with all the younger “flat belly” players. My wife asked where do the "fat belly" players play?… and the Fat Belly Tour was born. We embrace our age while aiming to get fit and help others improve their game and possibly their lifestyle at the same time! With some extra around the middle, we focus on fun and supporting local communities.
So, whether you have a belly or not, grab your clubs and hit the greens—let’s show those young guys what we can do!
-
The Fat Belly Tour welcomes you to a blend of camaraderie, competition, and charitable spirit! Picture this: young guns driving the ball alongside seasoned pros, all vying for that sweet taste of tournament glory. Whether you’re aiming for a hole-in-one or just trying to find your ball in the bushes, we’ve got your back!
Our professional touch ensures every tournament feels like a major championship—complete with purses large enough to make your wallet smile. Players of all ages and skill levels have a place on our greens. So polish those clubs, and embrace the fun of improving your game while building lifelong friendships.
But wait, there's more! As you swing your way to victory, you'll be sneaking in a bit of fitness and wellness on the side. Who knew getting healthy could be so entertaining? Join us at The Fat Belly Tour and develop your game to the level you had always hoped for.

At The Fat Belly Tour, we’re not just about swinging clubs and sinking putts; we’re all about swinging the conversation around holistic health and wellness into full swing! With our trusty partners who share our vision, we’re challenging the conventional and exposing the glaring imperfections of the wrongly titled “health care” system.
By promoting wellness not just as a series of fancy smoothies and yoga poses but as a lifestyle, we believe that every golfer can hit a hole-in-one not just on the course, but in their overall health journey. Imagine a world where your health is supported by a community that values real approaches to wellbeing.
