“We’re excited to announce our 2018 Turkey Shoot golf outings. In their 23rd year, the outings have become a time-honored Baltimore tradition,” said Jon Ladd, BMGC’s Executive Director. “Golfers around the area look forward to the Turkey Shoot each year, and we take pleasure in providing family and friends with the opportunity to get in a fun round of golf before Thanksgiving festivities begin at home later in the afternoon.”

The Turkey Shoot outings will begin with a shotgun start at 8:30 a.m. at Pine Ridge, Mount Pleasant, Forest Park, and Clifton Park golf courses. Carroll Park will be open for regular play until 12 p.m.

At Clifton Park Golf Course, the Turkey Shoot will feature a “Captain’s Choice” format, with prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place teams, in addition to contests for closest to the pin, longest and straightest drives. While there will not be a team competition at Mount Pleasant, Forest Park, or Pine Ridge golf courses, prizes will be awarded for closest to the pin on par three holes.

The registration fee for Turkey Shoot golf outings, which includes breakfast, greens and cart fees, and prizes, is $53 at Pine Ridge, $43 at Mount Pleasant, $35 at Forest Park and $60 at Clifton Park.
